Géochimie élémentaire des cuirasses ferrugineuses de KOB en fonction de la place dans le profil vertical. A : anti-corrélation entre la silice et le fer total ; B : l’alumine est sans corrélation avec la silice ; C : la teneur en vanadium est peu variable et reste indépendante de celle du fer ; D : corrélation positive entre le chrome et le titane ; E : triplot classique alumine/silice/fer total montrant que les cuirasses de KOB n’enregistrent pas de composante de kaolinisation attendue pour des cuirasses sur latérite. Elles sont déplétées en fer relativement aux gossans (domaine établi par Blot, 2004).
Elementary geochemistry of KOB ferruginous cuirasses as a function of position in the vertical profile. A: anti-correlation between silica and total iron; B: alumina has no correlation with silica; C: the vanadium content is little variable and remains independent of that of the iron; D: positive correlation between chromium and titanium; E: classic alumina/silica/total iron triplot showing that the KOB breastplates do not record the kaolinization component expected for breastplates on laterite. They are iron depleted with respect to gossans (range established by Blot, 2004).
