| Research Abstract |
Dislocations provide a direct proof of plastic deformation of minerals. We observed dislocation structure around fluid inclusions in olivine and orthopyroxene. For olivine, development of edge dislocations with loop shape whose size is analogous to that of an adjacent fluid inclusion indicate that the dislocations result from excess pressure of the fluid inclusion. The generation of loop dislocations would be controlled by yield strength of slip systems of olivine. For orthopyroxene, a few screw dislocations are identified in c-axis. The difference in dislocation density between both minerals suggests the higher yield strength of orthopyroxene. This is verified by the fact that expansion of a fluid inclusion in olivine estimated by dislocation structure can well explain difference in CO2 fluid density between the minerals. The observation of dislocation structure around fluid inclusions in xenoliths is useful to assess relative strength of slip systems among minerals.
