WEEK OF SEPTEMBER 26, 2023

EES 5010 Geoscience Seminar – 9/29/2023 – 3:30 – 5:00P, 125 Trowbridge Hall

Presenter: Dr. Mark Reagan - University of Iowa, Earth & Environmental Sciences, Professor Emeritus

Title: Drilling the oceanic mantle: first results from IODP Expedition 399

Abstract: International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) Expedition drilled at two sites on the Atlantis Massif, an oceanic core complex located at 30o N, 142o W along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. Hole U1309D was deepened 80 m during the expedition to a total depth of 1,498 meters below seafloor (MBSF), recovering gabbros. The primary accomplishment was drilling into serpentinized mantle and gabbroic rocks to a depth of 1,264 mbsf at Site U1601. Borehole fluids were collected after drilling at both sites. In this talk, Dr. Reagan will discuss drilling operations, life onboard a drill ship for two months, and the nature of the cores and fluids recovered from both sites. Dr. Reagan will also discuss implications of preliminary observations for the geological development of oceanic core complexes and the biology of associated fluids.
