Zinc isotope evidence for sulfate-rich fluid transfer across subduction zones

During subduction, fluids are released into the mantle wedge, but the exact compositions of these fluids are unclear. Ponset al. by analysing zinc isotopes from serpentinite provide evidence that oxidized, sulphate rich fluids are released to the mantle wedge during subduction.
