Discussion: Rocks: Solid Earth
I have studied Bowen's reaction series and understand the process of magmatic differentiation, that different types of minerals crystallize from magma systematically. I understand that during the crystallization process, the composition of magma continually changes. However, can you explain and help me understand how partial melting can generate magmas with different compositions with regard to Bowen's reaction series and the magmatic differentiation?
