To better address how subducted protoliths drive the Earth's mantle sulfur isotope heterogeneity, we report new data for sulfur (S) and copper (Cu) abundances, S speciation and multiple S isotopic compositions (32 S, 33 S, 34 S, 36 S) in 15 fresh submarine basaltic glasses from the Samoan archipelago, which defines the enriched-mantle-2 (EM2) endmember. Bulk S abundances vary between 835 and 2279 ppm. About 17±11% of sulfur is oxidized (S 6+) but displays no consistent trend with bulk S abundance or any other geochemical tracer. The S isotope composition of both dissolved sulfide and sulfate yield homogeneous Δ 33 S and Δ 36 S values, within error of Canyon Diablo Troilite (CDT). In contrast, δ 34 S values are variable, ranging between+ 0.11 and+ 2.79‰(±0.12‰ 1σ) for reduced sulfur, whereas oxidized sulfur values vary between+ 4.19 and+ 9.71‰(±0.80‰, 1σ). Importantly, δ 34 S of the reduced S pool correlates with the 87 Sr/86 Sr ratios of the glasses, in a manner similar to that previously reported for South-Atlantic MORB, extending the trend to δ 34 S values up to+ 2.79±0.04‰, the highest value reported for undegassed oceanic basalts. As for EM-1 basalts from the South Atlantic ridge, the linear δ 34 S–87 Sr/86 Sr trend requires the EM-2 endmember to be relatively S-rich, and only sediments can account for these isotopic characteristics. While many authors argue that both the EM-1 and EM-2 mantle components record subduction of various protoliths (eg upper or lower continental crust, lithospheric mantle versus intra-metasomatized mantle, or others), it is proposed here that they primarily reflect sediment recycling. Their distinct Pb isotope variation can be accounted for by varying the proportion of S-poor recycled oceanic crust in the source of mantle plumes.
