origin of the rhyolite. The combined inajor- and traeeelement and Sr- and Nd- ,isotopic data indicate that the main
v generation process of the SK typeI andesite was the mixing of
basaltic magma (the CK type I basalt) with some felsic magrnas.
The felsic magmas are the WK type I rhyolite magma and
rhyolitic magmas having higher Sr aRd Nd contents, and higher
Srl and lower Ndl values than the WK type I rhyolite. On the
other hand, the SK type II andesite and WK type II rhyolite may
•- have been derived from the CK type II basaltic magma by
fraetional crystallization aceompanied by a minor degree of
assimilation of crustal materials,
The genetic relationship of these coeval basalts, andesite and
rhyolite can be attributed to spreading of the Kurile basin,
BABB magma which is a partial melt in a hot asthenosphere
uprising below the island arc during the basin spreading, could
have heated the erust to generate calc-alkaline rhyolitic
magma. Andesitic rocks were deriyed both by mixing of BABB
magma with the crust-derived rhyolitic magma and by
fractional ctystallization of BABB magma,
