Outline of Final Research Achievements

Several types of mantle xenoliths have been investigated to determined oxidation state of Fe and Fe3+ distribution in olivine at upper mantle condition. The results in the present study indicate that olivine in the mantle xenoliths contains a small amount of Fe3+ and that oxidation state of Fe within olivine in the mantle xenoliths from the upper mantle under the island arc and the continent are 94: 6 and 97: 3, respectively. The fact indicates that the upper mantle under the island arc is in more oxidized condition than that under the continent. This result gives a new view on the redox condition of the upper mantle.
