δ 26 Mg values. Therefore, carbonatite-metasomatized peridotites in the mantle cannot be the primary
source rocks of low-δ 26 Mg mantle-derived magmas. Instead, fractional crystallization and accumulation
of chromite during ascent of the basaltic magmas may explain the isotopically light basalts, as supported
by the covariations of δ 26 Mg with chemical indices of chromite crystallization (e.g., Cr, V, Fe and Ti).
Consequently, chromite crystallization may significantly influence the physiochemical processes on the
genesis of basalts, which would require comprehensive evaluation in future studies.

The mantle xenoliths from the Mingxi, Haoti and Dayishan ar-
eas have been metasomatized by carbonatitic melts (e.g., Xu et rock δ 26 Mg values of the peridotites vary from −0.27 to −0.10h

in basalts are indicators of chromite crystallization as Cr, V and Fe are compatible while Ti is incompatible in chromite (e.g., Zhou et al., 2014; Su et al., 2019). Modeling of Mg
isotopic variations during fractional crystallization of chromite from basaltic melt is shown in Fig. 6d. Red and blue solid lines represent calculated Mg isotopic compositions
of residual melts by assuming a Rayleigh distillation process. Proportions (percentage numbers in diagram) of chromite crystallized from the melts and TiO2 contents of
the residual melts are modeled using MELTS, where sample 08NM-4 (Sun et al., 2017) having higher MgO content (16.37 wt.%) among the continental basalts was used as
compositions of the initial melt. The equation that governs isotopic fractionation in a Rayleigh distillation process is: δ 26 Mgmelt = (δ 26 Mg0 + 1000) f (α −1) − 1000 where F
is the fraction of melts remaining and is calculated from MELTS. The δ 26 Mg0 is the initial Mg isotope of melts, which is consistent with the average Mg isotopes of mantle
peridotite. The fraction of Mg remaining in the melt is f = (F × Cmelt )/C0 , where Cmelt and C0 represent the MgO concentration in the remaining melts and the initial melts.
The fractionation factor α is calculated by (26 Mg/24 Mg)crystal /(26 Mg/24 Mg)melt , and the average crystal-melt fractionation factors (26 Mgcrystal-melt = δ 26 Mgcrystal -δ 26 Mgmelt )
vary from 0.2h for magnesiochromite to 0.4h for spinel. Modeling and calculation results are shown in Supplementary Table S4.
