Partition coefficients for K, Rb, Sr, and Ba distributed between plagioclase, K-feldspar, clinopyroxene, orthopyroxene, mica, hornblende, garnet, and olivine phenocrysts and their igneous matrix materials, have been determined by a mass-spectrometric stable isotope dilution technique. Typical differentiation of a basalt through fractional crystallization results in higher K, Ba, and Rb concentrations, slightly higher K/Sr, Ba/Sr and Rb/Sr ratios, and slightly lower K/Rb and Ba/Rb ratios in the liquid. K/Ba may be a useful solar-system indexing criterion. The high K/Rb ratio and other trace element characteristics of andesine-labradorite anorthosites reflect their origin as plagioclase cumulates. Partition coefficients have been applied to a simple model of basalt genesis.
