Table 2 Major element bulk-rock chemical composition (in wt%) of various lithologies from the central Tauern Window. In analyses where the volatile content was not determined by separate measurement of H2O and CO2, the cumulative volatile content is given as loss-on-ignition (LOI). All Fe was measured as Fe2O3. Abbreviations of lithostratigraphic units as in Fig. 13

From: Rift-related paleogeography of the European margin in the Eastern Alps (Central Tauern Window)
