Pb, Sr, Nd, and Hf isotopic compositions of Oahu volcanics indicate that the three principal volcanic series on Oahu--Koolau, Honolulu and Waianae--were derived from isotopically distinct sources. Honolulu and Waianae basalts plot on the Nd-Pb-Sr 'mantle plane' whereas Koolau data plot distinctly below the plane. |
