Lithium systematics in global arc magmas and the importance of crustal thickening for lithium enrichment

Much of the world’s Li deposits occurs as basinal brines in magmatic orogens, particularly in continental volcanic arcs. However, the exact origin of Li enrichment in arc magmatic systems is not clear. Here, we show that, globally, primitive arc magmas have Li contents and Li/Y ratios similar to mid...
