becomes a volcanic rock on the surface of the Earth, reflects the isotopic ratio of the mantle source at the time of melting. The best studied heavy radiogenic isotope systems in ocean island basalts are Sr/Sr, Nd/Nd, Pb/Pb, Pb/Pb, Pb/Pb, Hf/Hf and, more recently, Os/Os. In each of these systems, a radioactive parent isotope with a long half-life (i.e., longer than 704 million years) decays to a ā€œradiogenicā€ daughter isotope. Changes in the parent/daughter ratio by, for example, mantle melting, result in changes in the radiogenic isotopic ratios. Thus, these radiogenic isotopic systems are sensitive to the timing, and degree, of parent/daughter the changed (or fractionated) parent daughter ratio, which then informs the process(es) responsible for generating observed radiogenic isotopic heterogeneity in ocean island basalts. In mantle geochemistry, any composition with relatively low Sr/Sr, and high Nd/Nd and Hf/Hf, is a referred to as ā€œgeochemically depletedā€. High Sr/Sr, and low Nd/Nd and Hf/Hf, is referred to as ā€œgeochemically enrichedā€. Relatively low isotopic ratios of Pb in mantle-derived rocks are described as

mantle domains with similar radiogenic isotopic compositions sampled at different hotspot localities are thought to share similar geologic histories. For example, the EM2 hotspots of Samoa and Society are both thought to have a mantle source that contains recycled upper continental crust, an idea that is supported by stable isotope observations, including Ī“O and Ī“Li. The isotopic similarities do not imply that Samoa and Society have the same physical mantle source, as evidenced by their slightly distinct arrays in radiogenic isotopic multi-space. Thus, hotspots that are categorized as ā€œEM1ā€, ā€œEM2ā€, ā€œHIMUā€, or ā€œFOZOā€, may each sample physically distinct, but compositionally similar, portions of the mantle. Furthermore, some hotspot chains host lavas with wide range of isotopic compositions so that the plume source seems to either sample multiple domains which can be sampled at different times in the volcanic evolution of a hotspot.

to an endmember with an extreme composition. The depleted mantle, or DM, is one endmember, and is defined by low Sr/Sr, Pb/Pb, Pb/Pb, Pb/Pb, and high Nd/Nd and Hf/Hf. The DM is therefore geochemically depleted, and relatively unradiogenic. Mid-ocean ridges passively sample the upper mantle and MORBs are typically geochemically depleted, and therefore it is widely accepted that the upper mantle is composed mostly of depleted mantle. Thus, the term depleted MORB mantle (DMM) is often used to describe the upper mantle that sources mid-ocean ridge volcanism. Ocean island basalts also sample geochemically depleted mantle domains. In fact, most ocean island basalts are geochemically depleted, and <10% of ocean island basalts have lavas that extend to geochemically enriched (i.e., Nd/Nd lower than the Earth's building blocks) compositions.

intermediate Pb/Pb, Pb/Pb, Pb/Pb.  This central mantle domain has several names, each with slightly different implications. PREMA, or ā€œPrevalent Mantleā€ was the first term coined by Zindler and Hart (1986) to describe the most common composition sampled by ocean island basalts. Hart et al. (1992) later named the location of the intersection of ocean island basalt compositions in radiogenic isotopic multi-space as the ā€œFocus Zoneā€, or FOZO. Farley et al. (1992) in the same year described a high He/He (a primitive geochemical signature) component in plumes as the ā€œPrimitive Helium Mantleā€, or PHEM. Finally, Hanan and Graham (1996) used the term ā€œCā€ (for common component) to describe a common mixing component in mantle derived rocks.

an Earth material has elevated U/Pb (HIMU), then it will also have elevated U/Pb, and therefore will produce radiogenic Pb compositions for both the Pb/Pb and Pb/Pb isotopic systems (U decays Pb, U decays to Pb). Similarly, Earth materials with high U/Pb also tend to have high Th/Pb, and thus evolve to have high Pb/Pb (Th decays to Pb). Ocean island basalts with highly radiogenic Pb/Pb, Pb/Pb, Pb/Pb are the products of HIMU mantle domains.
151:. Mantle plume conduits may drift slowly, but Earth's tectonic plates drift more rapidly relative to mantle plumes. As a result, the relative motion of Earth's tectonic plates over mantle plumes produces age-progressive chains of volcanic islands and seamounts with the youngest, active volcanoes located above the axis of the mantle plume while older, inactive volcanoes are located progressively farther away from the plume conduit ( 1582: 473:
The presence of a particular mantle domain in ocean island basalts from two hotspots, signaled by a particular radiogenic isotopic composition, does not necessarily indicate that mantle plumes with similar isotopic compositions are sourced from the same physical reservoir in the deep mantle. Instead,

These isotopic systems have provided evidence for a heterogenous lower mantle. There are several distinct ā€œmantle domainsā€ or endmembers that appear in the ocean island basalt record. When plotted in multi-isotope space, ocean island basalts tend to form arrays trending from a central composition out
162:
Not all ocean island basalts are the product of mantle plumes. There are thousands of seamounts that are not clearly associated with upwelling mantle plumes, and there are chains of seamounts that are not age progressive. Seamounts that are not clearly linked to a mantle plume indicate that regional

Isotopic systems help to deconvolve the geologic processes that contributed to, and in some cases the timing of, the formation of these mantle domains. Some important examples include the presence of crustal fingerprints in enriched mantle sources that indicate that material from Earth's continents

Another distinct mantle domain is the HIMU mantle. In isotope geochemistry, the Greek letter Ī¼ (or mu) is used to describe the U/Pb, such that ā€˜high Ī¼ā€™ (abbreviated HIMU) describes a high U/Pb ratio. Over time, as U decays to Pb, HIMU Earth materials develop particularly radiogenic (high) Pb/Pb. If

isotopic systems, such as He/He, Ne/Ne, and Xe/Xe, have been used to demonstrate that parts of the lower mantle are relatively less degassed and have not been homogenized despite billions of years of mantle convective mixing. Some large, hot mantle plumes have anomalously high He/He. Since He is

The final mantle domain discussed here is the common composition that ocean island basalts trend toward in radiogenic isotopic multi-space. This is also most prevalent mantle source in ocean island basalts, and has intermediate to geochemically depleted Sr/Sr, Nd/Nd, and Hf/Hf, as well as

There are two geochemically enriched domains, named enriched mantle 1 (EM1), and enriched mantle 2 (EM2). Though broadly similar, there are some important distinctions between EM1 and EM2. EM1 has unradiogenic Pb/Pb, moderately high Sr/Sr, and extends to lower Nd/Nd and Hf/Hf than EM2.
