**Abstract.** In this study, the effects of H₂O and Cl on the grain size and nucleation delay of plagioclase in basaltic magma were investigated using dynamic and equilibrium experiments at 1150 °C, 300 MPa, and oxygen fugacity between FMQ – 1.65 and FMQ + 0.05 (fayalite–magnetite–quartz). Each experiment consisted of five samples of basaltic composition (from the Hamn intrusion in Northern Norway) containing varying amounts of H₂O (up to 2 wt %) and Cl (up to 1 wt %). The equilibrium experiments were used as a reference frame for the phase assemblage, geochemical composition, and liquidus temperatures and were compared to thermodynamic models using MELTS software. Experimental phase abundances and plagioclase compositions are in good agreement with the predictions of MELTS. The dynamic experiments were initially heated above the liquidus temperature to destroy crystal nuclei and then kept at 1150 °C for 100, 250, or 1800 min. These experiments show that as the concentration of H₂O in the melt increases, plagioclase nucleation is delayed, plagioclase abundance decreases, but its size increases. Therefore, the addition of H₂O seems to favor plagioclase growth at the expense of nucleation. Thermodynamic and kinetic calculations corroborate an increase in the nucleation delay of plagioclase with increasing H₂O content dissolved in the melt, suggesting that H₂O decreases the undercooling of the silicate melt. The addition of Cl also seems to delay plagioclase nucleation, although this is not supported by kinetic calculations. Increasing the Cl content decreases plagioclase abundance but does not significantly affect its size.

The homogeneous pegmatitic pockets of the mafic–ultramafic Hamn intrusion exhibit several petrological and geochemical features, suggesting that H₂O and Cl enrichment in the silicate melt was the origin of the pegmatitic texture. The experimental results presented here indicate that H₂O, rather than Cl, may have played an important role in the formation of the pegmatitic texture.

# 1 Introduction

Pegmatites are igneous rocks with extremely large grains and/or highly directional growth habits (London, 2008). Pegmatites are most commonly felsic in composition, although mafic pegmatites have also been reported and can be found as either unzoned pocket clusters that differ only in grain size from their host rock or in their texturally and mineralogically zoned bodies (Beard, 1986; Beard and Scott, 2018; Larsen and Brooks, 1994; Pentek et al., 2006). The Paleopro-

terozoic mafic–ultramafic Hamn intrusion in Senja (Northern Norway) contains zoned and unzoned pegmatites (Heckmann et al., 2022). The zoned pegmatites exhibit mineralogical and textural zonation, as well as evidence of undercooling of the pegmatite-forming magma, whereas the unzoned pegmatites do not. The major and trace element compositions, rock-forming mineral assemblages, and mineral chemistries of the unzoned pegmatitic pockets (less than 1 m in diameter) are similar to those of their host gabbronorite. Unzoned pegmatites, however, can be distinguished from their host rock

# 1 Introduction

Pegmatites are igneous rocks with extremely large grains and/or highly directional growth habits (London, 2008). Pegmatites are most commonly felsic in composition, although mafic pegmatites have also been reported and can be found as either unzoned pocket clusters that differ only in grain size from their host rock or in their texturally and mineralogically zoned bodies (Beard, 1986; Beard and Scott, 2018; Larsen and Brooks, 1994; Pentek et al., 2006). The Paleopro-

terozoic mafic–ultramafic Hamn intrusion in Senja (Northern Norway) contains zoned and unzoned pegmatites (Heckmann et al., 2022). The zoned pegmatites exhibit mineralogical and textural zonation, as well as evidence of undercooling of the pegmatite-forming magma, whereas the unzoned pegmatites do not. The major and trace element compositions, rock-forming mineral assemblages, and mineral chemistries of the unzoned pegmatitic pockets (less than 1 m in diameter) are similar to those of their host gabbronorite. Unzoned pegmatites, however, can be distinguished from their host rock
by abundant epidotization and scapolitization, implying that H₂O- and Cl-bearing fluids were required for the formation of the pegmatitic texture (Heckmann et al., 2022).

This is consistent with the prevailing hypothesis proposed for the formation of pegmatitic textures that suggests an important role of volatiles in pegmatite-forming processes (Bartels et al., 2015, 2013, 2011; Jahns and Burnham, 1969; London, 1984; Thomas et al., 2003; Nabelek et al., 2010). Fluxing components, such as H₂O, can lower crystallization temperatures, nucleation rates, melt polymerization, and melt viscosity while increasing diffusion rates (Fenn, 1977; Myssen and Richet, 2005; Shaw, 1963; Watson and Baker, 1991), and they may thus be the critical factor causing coarse grain size or directional growth habits. In particular, most studies on the petrogenesis of mafic pegmatites from various locations concluded that pegmatites formed by a locally segregated hydrous melt (Pentek et al., 2006) or intercumulus melt in the presence of a fluid phase (Beard, 1986; Larsen and Brooks, 1994). For example, the gabbroic pegmatite of the Smartville Complex in California shows epidotization of plagioclase, similar to the unzoned pegmatite of Hamn (Beard, 1986). Furthermore, elevated Cl concentrations associated with mafic pegmatites have been reported in a variety of contexts (Meurer and Boudreau, 1996; Pentek et al., 2006; Sonnenthal, 1992). The presence of a Cl-bearing fluid phase in the Hamn pegmatite and other mafic pegmatites around the world begs the question of how H₂O and Cl affect the growth and thus the texture of rock-forming minerals. We present an experimental study that investigated the effect of H₂O and Cl dissolved in silicate melts on crystal grain size, nucleation delay, and crystallization order in gabbronoritic melts. We used a natural composition from the Hamn intrusion in Northern Norway to determine whether H₂O and Cl enrichment in the silicate melt caused the formation of unzoned pegmatites at Hamn, as suggested by mineralogical and geochemical data.

## 2 Methods

### 2.1 Starting material

The starting material was the gabbronorite host rock of the homogeneous pegmatites of the mafic-ultramafic Hamn intrusion in Senja, Northern Norway (sample KR-HM-28 from Heckmann et al., 2022), which was melted for 2 h at 1 atm and 1600 °C before being quenched to a crystal and bubble-free glass. Table 1 shows the bulk major element analysis of gabbronorite (Heckmann et al., 2022) and the electron microprobe analysis of the starting glass.

### 2.2 Experimental strategy

Five experimental runs were carried out at 300 ± 10 MPa with varying time-temperature paths (Table 2). In the “equilibrium experiments”, the samples were heated directly to

the target temperature of 1150 °C, followed by an 1800 min dwell ramp and a rapid quench. In the “dynamic experiments”, the samples were heated above the liquidus temperature (1275 °C) for 10 min and then cooled to the target temperature of 1150 °C (at a rate of 10 °C min⁻¹). The samples were held at 1150 °C for three different durations (100, 250, and 1800 min) before being rapidly quenched. An additional nominally anhydrous sample was heated to 1275 °C for 10 min before rapid quenching. The pressure of 300 MPa was chosen to be relevant to the emplacement of mafic pegmatites, estimated to be between 100 and 500 MPa for the Smartville Complex (Beard, 1986) and 600 MPa for the Hamn intrusion (Heckmann et al., 2022). Each experimental run included five samples spiked with varying amounts of deionized H₂O and AgCl (the latter served as a source of chlorine). The starting glass powder was loaded into Pt or Au₈₀Pd₂₀ capsules (internal diameter 2.5 or 2.7 mm), together with variable H₂O and Cl contents (up to 2.1 wt % H₂O and 1.0 wt % Cl; Table 2). To be relevant to natural magmas, the Cl-bearing samples also contained 1.0 wt % H₂O. A total of 1 wt % chlorine was chosen because it is close to but slightly below the upper limit of around 2 wt % for chlorine contents in basaltic melts (Webster et al., 2018).

The “equilibrium experiments” were typical phase equilibrium experiments used to characterize the mineral phases that occur at 1150 °C, as well as their abundances. The “dynamic experiments” were heated above the liquidus temperature to destroy all crystal nuclei before cooling to the target temperature to show the effect of H₂O and Cl on the nucleation delay of the mineral phases. A temperature of 1150 °C was chosen to observe the onset of plagioclase and pyroxene crystallization. The additional experiment at 1275 °C showed the absence of crystals, confirming that the anhydrous liquidus of the selected composition is lower than 1275 °C.

Experiments were carried out at the Institut des Sciences de la Terre d'Orléans (ISTO) in internally heated pressure vessels equipped with rapid quenching devices. The vessels were pressurized with H<sub>2</sub>–Ar mixtures, and the oxygen fugacity (fO<sub>2</sub>) was varied by varying the H<sub>2</sub> partial pressure in the vessel and monitored using the Co–Pd–O solid sensor technique (Taylor et al., 1992). Two pellets of CoPd metal mixtures (each with a different Co/Pd ratio) and CoO were placed in a Pt capsule filled with Zr oxide in the presence of excess H<sub>2</sub>O and run under the same conditions as the samples. The fO<sub>2</sub> of the sensor was calculated from the composition of its metallic phases (only Pt-free analyses were considered), as described by Pownceby and O'Neill (1994). The fO<sub>2</sub> of each charge was calculated from the activity of H<sub>2</sub>O estimated for each charge, as described by Botcharnikov et al. (2008), using the model of Iacono-Marziano et al. (2012). Table 2 shows the oxygen fugacity values in logarithmic units relative to the fayalite–magnetite–quartz (FMQ) buffer.

## 2.3 Analytical techniques

The mineral phases and textural features of the recovered and polished samples were studied using a Zeiss Merlin Compact field emission gun scanning electron microscope (FEG-SEM) at the ISTO. The major element compositions of the minerals, glasses, and redox sensors were analyzed using a Cameca SX Five electron microprobe at the ISTO. The following operating conditions were used for the glasses and silicate minerals: 15 kV accelerating voltage, 10 nA beam current, 10 s counting time for all elements, 6–12 m spot size for glasses, and a focused beam for minerals. To limit losses,

sodium and potassium levels were first analyzed. The redox sensor alloys were analyzed at 15 kV, 20 nA, 10 s counting for all elements, and a focused beam. Table S1 lists the standards and detection limits that were used. The software Fiji was used to perform textural analyses of the run products on backscattered electron (BSE) images (Schindelin et al., 2012).

## 2.4 Thermodynamic and kinetic calculations

Thermodynamic modeling was performed to simulate crystallization at 300 MPa and FMQ – 1 ± 1 for 0 wt%, 0.25 wt%, 1 wt%, and 2 wt% H<sub>2</sub>O, using the software rhyolite-MELTS v.1.2.0 (Ghiorso and Sack, 1995; Gualda et al., 2012; Ghiorso and Gualda, 2015). Although the incorporation of Cl in MELTS is purely exploratory, as stated in the software manual, additional simulations were conducted for H<sub>2</sub>O contents of 1 wt% and Cl contents of 0.4 wt% and 1 wt%.

The simulations show that 1150 °C is below the liquidus temperature for each H<sub>2</sub>O and Cl combination used in our experiments (Table S2). The results of the simulations were compared with the results of the “equilibrium experiments” in terms of phase abundance and composition and served as input parameters (Gibbs free energy (ΔG) of formation and viscosity of the melt) for the nucleation delay calculation (see below).

In natural magmas, crystal nucleation is likely delayed until the new phase becomes thermodynamically stable. We calculated the plagioclase and clinopyroxene nucleation delays

Experiments were carried out at the Institut des Sciences de la Terre d'Orléans (ISTO) in internally heated pressure vessels equipped with rapid quenching devices. The vessels were pressurized with H<sub>2</sub>-Ar mixtures, and the oxygen fugacity (fO<sub>2</sub>) was varied by varying the H<sub>2</sub> partial pressure in the vessel and monitored using the Co-Pd-O solid sensor technique (Taylor et al., 1992). Two pellets of CoPd metal mixtures (each with a different Co/Pd ratio) and CoO were placed in a Pt capsule filled with Zr oxide in the presence of excess H<sub>2</sub>O and run under the same conditions as the samples. The fO<sub>2</sub> of the sensor was calculated from the composition of its metallic phases (only Pt-free analyses were considered), as described by Pownceby and O'Neill (1994). The fO<sub>2</sub> of each charge was calculated from the activity of H<sub>2</sub>O estimated for each charge, as described by Botcharnikov et al. (2008), using the model of Iacono-Marziano et al. (2012). Table 2 shows the oxygen fugacity values in logarithmic units relative to the fayalite-magnetite-quartz (FMQ) buffer.

## 2.3 Analytical techniques

The mineral phases and textural features of the recovered and polished samples were studied using a Zeiss Merlin Compact field emission gun scanning electron microscope (FEG-SEM) at the ISTO. The major element compositions of the minerals, glasses, and redox sensors were analyzed using a Cameca SX Five electron microprobe at the ISTO. The following operating conditions were used for the glasses and silicate minerals: 15 kV accelerating voltage, 10 nA beam current, 10 s counting time for all elements, 6–12 m spot size for glasses, and a focused beam for minerals. To limit losses,

sodium and potassium levels were first analyzed. The redox sensor alloys were analyzed at 15 kV, 20 nA, 10 s counting for all elements, and a focused beam. Table S1 lists the standards and detection limits that were used. The software Fiji was used to perform textural analyses of the run products on backscattered electron (BSE) images (Schindelin et al., 2012).

## 2.4 Thermodynamic and kinetic calculations

Thermodynamic modeling was performed to simulate crystallization at 300 MPa and FMQ – 1 ± 1 for 0 wt%, 0.25 wt%, 1 wt%, and 2 wt% H<sub>2</sub>O, using the software rhyolite-MELTS v.1.2.0 (Ghiorso and Sack, 1995; Gualda et al., 2012; Ghiorso and Gualda, 2015). Although the incorporation of Cl in MELTS is purely exploratory, as stated in the software manual, additional simulations were conducted for H<sub>2</sub>O contents of 1 wt% and Cl contents of 0.4 wt% and 1 wt%.

The simulations show that 1150 °C is below the liquidus temperature for each H<sub>2</sub>O and Cl combination used in our experiments (Table S2). The results of the simulations were compared with the results of the “equilibrium experiments” in terms of phase abundance and composition and served as input parameters (Gibbs free energy (ΔG) of formation and viscosity of the melt) for the nucleation delay calculation (see below).

In natural magmas, crystal nucleation is likely delayed until the new phase becomes thermodynamically stable. We calculated the plagioclase and clinopyroxene nucleation delays
(τ) using the model of Rusiecka et al. (2020):

$$ \tau = \frac{16h}{\pi} \frac{\sigma}{\Delta G_V^2 a^4} \cdot \exp\left(\frac{\Delta G_D}{k_b T}\right), \qquad (1) $$

where h is Planck's constant, σ is the interfacial free energy per unit area, ΔG<sub>V</sub> is the bulk free energy per unit volume, ΔG<sub>D</sub> is Gibbs free energy of the formation of the mineral, a is the size of a structural unit, k<sub>b</sub> is Boltzmann's constant, and T is temperature. ΔG<sub>D</sub> can be substituted for the activation energy (E<sub>A</sub>), using the Eyring or Stokes-Einstein equation:

$$ E_A = -k_b T \ln \left( \frac{h}{a^3 \eta} \right), \qquad (2) $$

where η is viscosity.

We used an interface free energy of 0.18 J m<sup>-2</sup> for plagioclase (Nabelek et al., 1978) and 0.33 J m<sup>-2</sup> for clinopyroxene (Baker et al., 2020). The size of structural unit a was set to the Si<sup>4+</sup> ionic radius of 0.26 × 10<sup>-10</sup> m (Shannon, 1976). ΔG<sub>V</sub> was calculated from a molar volume of 1.01 × 10<sup>-4</sup> m<sup>3</sup> mol<sup>-1</sup> for plagioclase (arithmetic mean of value for albite and anorthite) and of 6.61 × 10<sup>-5</sup> m<sup>3</sup> mol<sup>-1</sup> for diopside (Robie and Bethke, 1962). The Gibbs free energy (ΔG) of formation and the viscosity were calculated using MELTS software. The heterogeneous nucleation delay (τ<sub>het</sub>) was also calculated from the homogeneous nucleation delay (τ), considering that minerals can nucleate on pre-existing mineral phases or the noble metal capsule wall (Fokin et al., 2006). For example, clinopyroxene is likely to nucleate on pre-existing plagioclase surfaces:

$$ \tau_{\text{het}} = \tau \varphi^{1/3}, \qquad (3) $$

where

$$ \varphi = \frac{1}{2} - \frac{3}{4}\cos\theta + \frac{1}{4}\cos^3\theta \qquad (4) $$

and θ is the interior contact angle between the surface upon which nucleation occurs and the nucleating phase. Θ was set to 45°, based on an optical estimate of the average contact angle to calculate the average delay for heterogeneous nucleation.

Two assumptions were necessary to simplify these calculations: (i) volume and surface thermodynamic properties of the nuclei of the new phase are considered size-independent and equal to the respective values of the corresponding macroscopic crystals, although experimental results often show discrepancies (Fokin et al., 2010; Rusiecka et al., 2020); and (ii) the interface between the growing nucleus and parent phase is considered a sharp boundary, although it may have a diffuse or curved nature.

## 3 Results

At the end of each experiment, all recovered capsules were weighed to check for possible leaks, pierced, and re-weighed to check for the presence of a fluid phase. The lack of weight loss after piercing and heating at 120 °C indicated that no fluid phase was present, implying that the loaded volatiles were completely dissolved in the silicate melt. Table 2 shows the phase proportions calculated by mass balance from the phase compositions, whereas Tables 3 and 4 show the phase compositions analyzed by electron microscope. The H<sub>2</sub>O content of the silicate glasses was also estimated using mass balance based on the initial amount of H<sub>2</sub>O loaded into the capsule and the crystal content. Submicron-sized blebs of Ag are visible in samples spiked with 1 wt % Cl (~ 4 wt % AgCl), both in the silicate glass and as inclusions in plagioclase crystals. The Fe loss from the melt to the capsule material was calculated by mass balance (Table 2). It does not show simple relationships with time and capsule material and is therefore unpredictable (Fig. S1 in the Supplement). The effect of Fe loss was investigated by performing MELTS simulations with a reduced Fe content (Table S3). Although Fe losses exceeding 30 wt % are estimated for five samples, variations in phase equilibria for the reduced Fe-content calculated with MELTS are extremely low (Table S3).

### 3.1 Equilibrium experiments

The compositions of the phases (crystals and glasses) within a given sample display considerable chemical uniformity, except for Cl, which shows a heterogeneous distribution and enrichment towards the lower part of the capsule, where AgCl is likely to be concentrated. Consequently, it is highly probable that the 1800 min experiments approached a state of partial equilibrium, consistent with previous research on phase equilibria in hydrous basalts conducted at similar temperatures. These earlier investigations employed shorter experimental durations, typically less than 24 h, as exemplified by the studies of Sisson and Grove (1993) and Di Carlo et al. (2006).

The plagioclase crystals of the samples from the equilibrium experiment are 4–7 µm in length, with a mean length-to-width ratio of 2–4 (Fig. 1a–c). Crystallization of silicate phases decreased with increasing H<sub>2</sub>O content (Fig. 1a–c; Table 2). H<sub>2</sub>O addition reduced plagioclase crystallization (Fig. 3a) and suppressed olivine and clinopyroxene crystallization (Fig. 1a–c; Table 2). On the other hand, Cl does not appear to affect the degree of crystallization or phase stability (Figs. 2a–c and 4; Table 2). The anorthite content of plagioclase increased with H<sub>2</sub>O addition as the plagioclase content decreased (Fig. 3b).

## 3.2 Dynamic experiments

Crystallization was reduced in the dynamic experiments (Table 2; Figs. 1 and 2), and samples containing ~2 wt % H₂O are always crystal-free (Fig. 1f, i, 1). The crystal sizes of the samples from the dynamic experiments are significantly larger than those from the equilibrium experiment: hundreds of microns (~150–300 µm) (Figs. 1 and 2). Plagioclase crystal shape also varies considerably from that of equilibrium samples: length-to-width ratios range from 8 to 23, with more skeletal forms in H₂O–(Cl–)-bearing samples (Figs. 1 and 2). Similar to the equilibrium experiment, H₂O reduced the amount of plagioclase crystallization (Fig. 3a). H₂O addition also increased plagioclase size; this is particularly clear in the samples that were held at 1150 °C for 1800 min (Fig. 4a, b): plagioclase length ranges from < 160 µm in the nominally anhydrous sample (Fig. 1j) up to > 300 µm in the samples with ~1 wt % dissolved H₂O (Fig. 1k). Olivine and clinopyroxene only occur in the sample with no added H₂O that was held at 1150 °C for 250 min (Fig. 1g). The nominally anhydrous sample that was held at 1150 °C for 100 min did not crystallize olivine and clinopyroxene, possibly owing to nucleation delay. In the dynamic experiments, Cl reduced the amount of plagioclase crystallization (Table 2; Figs. 2 and 3a); however, this did not seem to affect its size (Fig. 4b, c). Similar to the equilibrium experiments, the anorthite content of plagioclase increased with H₂O addition as the plagioclase content decreased (Fig. 3b). The Cl addition also appears to have increased the anorthite content, although variations are relatively limited (Fig. 3b).

## 3.3 MELTS modeling

The results of MELTS simulations at 1150 °C, 300 MPa, and FMQ are presented in Table 5 and Figs. 3 and 5 in terms of phase abundance and composition. Under these conditions, MELTS simulations predicted the crystallization of (i) clinopyroxene with two different compositions and plagioclase for 0 wt % H₂O and 0.25 wt % H₂O, (ii) clinopyroxene with only one composition and plagioclase for 1 wt % H₂O, and (iii) only plagioclase for 2 wt % H₂O (Table 5). The addition of Cl resulted in the suppression of clinopyroxene crystallization (Table 5). Simulations performed at the same temperature and pressure but with a lower oxygen fugacity (FMQ – 2) show similar results for 0 wt % H₂O and 0.25 wt % H₂O (similar mineral abundances and chemistry; Supplement) but no clinopyroxene crystallization for 1 wt % H₂O and no plagioclase crystallization for 2 wt % H₂O. The suppression of clinopyroxene crystallization is possibly explained by decreases in the Fe³⁺/Fe²⁺ ratio.

## 3.4 Nucleation delay calculations

The nucleation delays of plagioclase and clinopyroxene were calculated using the model of Rusiecka et al. (2020), in which the delay is determined by the barrier for the transition of a structural unit from the melt into the growing crystal nucleus. This barrier is represented by the activation energy of the diffusion of the nucleating crystal components in the silicate melt (see Sect. 2.4). We calculated nucleation delays for both homogeneous and heterogeneous nucleation. Homogeneous nucleation is a stochastic process that occurs with the same probability in any given volume element, whereas heterogeneous nucleation describes nucleation on preferred nucleation sites, such as pre-existing interfaces or surface defects (Fokin et al., 2006). Heterogeneous nucleation shortens the nucleation delay; therefore, the calculations (Table 6) include a correction coefficient that considers the interior contact angle between the nucleating surface and the nucleating material (Fokin et al., 2006). Our dynamic samples appear to have experienced heterogeneous nucleation at the capsule wall (e.g., Fig. 4b, c), but this does not rule out the possibility of homogeneous nucleation (e.g., Fig. 4a).

The calculated plagioclase nucleation delays are a few minutes under anhydrous conditions, a few tens of minutes when 1 wt % H₂O is present, and several hours when 2 wt % H₂O is present (Table 6). Clinopyroxene exhibits a nucleation delay of approximately 0.5–1 h under anhydrous conditions. Given that crystal nucleation is difficult to determine in dynamic experiments because of the extremely low number of crystals (e.g., Fig. 4b, c), this is in relatively good agreement with the delay estimated from our experimental results (Table 6).

## 4.1 Equilibrium experiment versus MELTS predictions

The phase abundances and compositions of the equilibrium experiment were directly compared with those predicted using MELTS. We performed MELTS simulations with 0 and 0.25 wt % H₂O because nominally anhydrous samples synthesized in internally heated pressure vessels always contain a few 10ths of weight percentage of H₂O due to hydrogen diffusion through the Pt or AuPd capsules (Chou, 1986; Almeev et al., 2007). The results of the MELTS simulation using 0.25 wt % H₂O do, in fact, agree better with the nominally anhydrous sample's phase abundances and compositions. For this sample, the larger discrepancy with MELTS simulations is the occurrence of olivine crystallization, whereas MELTS predicted the crystallization of a second clinopyroxene for both 0 wt % H₂O and 0.25 wt % H₂O (Table 5). The co-crystallization of the two clinopyroxenes might be related to some general limitations of the MELTS algorithm. Moreover, plagioclase and clinopyroxene abun-
## 3.2 Dynamic experiments

Crystallization was reduced in the dynamic experiments (Table 2; Figs. 1 and 2), and samples containing ~2 wt % H₂O are always crystal-free (Fig. 1f, i, l). The crystal sizes of the samples from the dynamic experiments are significantly larger than those from the equilibrium experiment: hundreds of microns (~150–300 µm) (Figs. 1 and 2). Plagioclase crystal shape also varies considerably from that of equilibrium samples: length-to-width ratios range from 8 to 23, with more skeletal forms in H₂O–(Cl−)-bearing samples (Figs. 1 and 2). Similar to the equilibrium experiment, H₂O reduced the amount of plagioclase crystallization (Fig. 3a). H₂O addition also increased plagioclase size; this is particularly clear in the samples that were held at 1150 °C for 1800 min (Fig. 4a, b): plagioclase length ranges from < 160 µm in the nominally anhydrous sample (Fig. 1j) up to > 300 µm in the samples with ~1 wt % dissolved H₂O (Fig. 1k). Olivine and clinopyroxene only occur in the sample with no added H₂O that was held at 1150 °C for 250 min (Fig. 1g). The nominally anhydrous sample that was held at 1150 °C for 100 min did not crystallize olivine and clinopyroxene, possibly owing to nucleation delay. In the dynamic experiments, Cl reduced the amount of plagioclase crystallization (Table 2; Figs. 2 and 3a); however, this did not seem to affect its size (Fig. 4b, c). Similar to the equilibrium experiments, the anorthite content of plagioclase increased with H₂O addition as the plagioclase content decreased (Fig. 3b). The Cl addition also appears to have increased the anorthite content, although variations are relatively limited (Fig. 3b).

## 3.3 MELTS modeling

The results of MELTS simulations at 1150 °C, 300 MPa, and FMQ are presented in Table 5 and Figs. 3 and 5 in terms of phase abundance and composition. Under these conditions, MELTS simulations predicted the crystallization of (i) clinopyroxene with two different compositions and plagioclase for 0 wt % H₂O and 0.25 wt % H₂O, (ii) clinopyroxene with only one composition and plagioclase for 1 wt % H₂O, and (iii) only plagioclase for 2 wt % H₂O (Table 5). The addition of Cl resulted in the suppression of clinopyroxene crystallization (Table 5). Simulations performed at the same temperature and pressure but with a lower oxygen fugacity (FMQ − 2) show similar results for 0 wt % H₂O and 0.25 wt % H₂O (similar mineral abundances and chemistry; Supplement) but no clinopyroxene crystallization for 1 wt % H₂O and no plagioclase crystallization for 2 wt % H₂O. The suppression of clinopyroxene crystallization is possibly explained by decreases in the Fe³⁺/Fe²⁺ ratio.

dances in the nominally anhydrous sample are both lower than those calculated by MELTS for 0.25 wt % H₂O (Fig. 3). Consequently, the silicate melt composition of the experimental sample is also different from the calculated one, particularly for Al₂O₃, FeOₜot, CaO, MgO, and Na₂O. The FeOₜot discrepancy can be associated with the Fe loss in the silicate glass due to Fe incorporation into the Pt or AuPd capsule. For samples with 1 wt % H₂O and 2 wt % H₂O, the

discrepancies between experimental and calculated data are generally smaller compared with the nominally anhydrous sample (Fig. 5). These samples experienced less Fe loss than the nominally anhydrous one (18–24 versus 33 wt%, estimated by mass balance calculations).

Therefore, we conclude that the discrepancy between the nominally anhydrous experiment and the MELTS prediction for dry melts can be mainly explained by an increase in wa-

ter by hydrogen diffusion through the capsule wall during the experiment, which caused redox reactions with the melt (and to a lesser extent by Fe loss). Fe loss to the capsule material leads to a change in the local bulk system composition, which influences the saturation of silicate phases and the respective nucleation delay of those phases. The comparison between MELTS simulations with and without reduced Fe contents only shows minor variations (Table S3). Therefore, we do not expect the Fe loss to significantly impact our results on plagioclase crystallization (the possible effect of Fe loss on clinopyroxene crystallization is discussed in the next paragraph).

## 4.2 Equilibrium experiment versus dynamic experiments

The dynamic experiments show lower amounts of plagioclase than the equilibrium sample at a given H₂O (and Cl) content (Table 2, Figs. 1–3), suggesting delayed crystallization. Differences in crystallization characteristics of clinopyroxene remain obscured due to a possible effect of Fe loss to the Pt or AuPd capsule, which could potentially limit

clinopyroxene crystallization, although MELTS simulations do not predict any significant effect (see previous paragraph). A markedly higher Fe loss in sample PEG_41 (33 wt%; Table 2) than in sample PEG_21 (15 wt%) might explain why clinopyroxene occurs in the latter (Fig. 1g), which lasted 250 min, but not in the former (Fig. 1j), which lasted 1800 min. The absence of clinopyroxene in sample PEG_36 that lasted 100 min, however, suggests the occurrence of delayed nucleation. The composition of the silicate melt in equilibrium and dynamic experiments is indistinguishable within the error bars for most elements (Fig. 5). Only Mg seems to be slightly lower in the equilibrium experiments, probably due to the crystallization of olivine.

Both the experimental data, and the calculations predict an increase in plagioclase nucleation delay with increasing H₂O content and, in particular, a marked increase between 1 wt % H₂O and 2 wt % H₂O. In contrast, experimental data seem to indicate an increase in plagioclase nucleation delay with increasing Cl content, which was not predicted by calculations.

Other notable differences between equilibrium and dynamic samples are the number and size of plagioclase crys-

The dynamic experiments show lower amounts of plagioclase than the equilibrium sample at a given H₂O (and Cl) content (Table 2, Figs. 1–3), suggesting delayed crystallization. Differences in crystallization characteristics of clinopyroxene remain obscured due to a possible effect of Fe loss to the Pt or AuPd capsule, which could potentially limit

clinopyroxene crystallization, although MELTS simulations do not predict any significant effect (see previous paragraph). A markedly higher Fe loss in sample PEG_41 (33 wt%; Table 2) than in sample PEG_21 (15 wt%) might explain why clinopyroxene occurs in the latter (Fig. 1g), which lasted 250 min, but not in the former (Fig. 1j), which lasted 1800 min. The absence of clinopyroxene in sample PEG_36 that lasted 100 min, however, suggests the occurrence of delayed nucleation. The composition of the silicate melt in equilibrium and dynamic experiments is indistinguishable within the error bars for most elements (Fig. 5). Only Mg seems to be slightly lower in the equilibrium experiments, probably due to the crystallization of olivine.

Both the experimental data, and the calculations predict an increase in plagioclase nucleation delay with increasing H₂O content and, in particular, a marked increase between 1 wt % H₂O and 2 wt % H₂O. In contrast, experimental data seem to indicate an increase in plagioclase nucleation delay with increasing Cl content, which was not predicted by calculations.

Other notable differences between equilibrium and dynamic samples are the number and size of plagioclase crys-

<footnote>* Nucleation type: heterogeneous or homogeneous. The abbreviation n.d. signifies not determined because it is not present in equilibrium samples.</footnote>
<figure><img src="image_7.png" /><figcaption>**Figure 5.** Comparison of melt composition from equilibrium experiments with MELTS.</figcaption></figure>

Melt compositions of 5000–30 000 crystals per square millimeter that are a few microns in size (4–7 µm in length) in the equilibrium samples and 100–2000 crystals per square millimeter that are hundreds of microns in size (160–300 µm in length) in the dynamic samples. The lower values in the crystal density correspond to samples containing 1 wt % H₂O, whereas the upper values correspond to nominally anhydrous samples. This suggests that nucleation delay is accompanied by a reduction in the number of crystal nuclei, which favors the developments of larger crystals (Nabelek et al., 2010).

### 4.3 Effect of water and chlorine on plagioclase abundance and crystal size

In both the equilibrium and dynamic experiments, the effects of H₂O and Cl on plagioclase crystallization are comparable. H₂O reduced plagioclase abundance while increasing plagioclase anorthite content (Fig. 3). The effect of H₂O on plagioclase stability was reported by Sisson and Grove (1993). Chlorine also reduced plagioclase abundance while increasing its anorthite content, albeit to a lesser extent (Fig. 3). The effect of Cl on crystallization of phases from silicate melts is still poorly understood. However, the experiments by Webster and McBirney (2001) revealed that an increased Cl content promotes melting of plagioclase and clinopyroxene plausibly due to an association of Cl with Ca and Mg in aluminosilicate melts.

Melt compositions of 5000–30 000 crystals per square millimeter that are a few microns in size (4–7 µm in length) in the equilibrium samples and 100–2000 crystals per square millimeter that are hundreds of microns in size (160–300 µm in length) in the dynamic samples. The lower values in the crystal density correspond to samples containing 1 wt % H₂O, whereas the upper values correspond to nominally anhydrous samples. This suggests that nucleation delay is accompanied by a reduction in the number of crystal nuclei, which favors the developments of larger crystals (Nabelek et al., 2010).

### 4.3 Effect of water and chlorine on plagioclase abundance and crystal size

In both the equilibrium and dynamic experiments, the effects of H₂O and Cl on plagioclase crystallization are comparable. H₂O reduced plagioclase abundance while increasing plagioclase anorthite content (Fig. 3). The effect of H₂O on plagioclase stability was reported by Sisson and Grove (1993). Chlorine also reduced plagioclase abundance while increasing its anorthite content, albeit to a lesser extent (Fig. 3). The effect of Cl on crystallization of phases from silicate melts is still poorly understood. However, the experiments by Webster and McBirney (2001) revealed that an increased Cl content promotes melting of plagioclase and clinopyroxene plausibly due to an association of Cl with Ca and Mg in aluminosilicate melts.
Moreover, the dynamic experiments revealed the effect of H₂O on plagioclase crystal size, which was not observed in the equilibrium experiment. The longer dynamic experiment (1800 min at 1150 °C) clearly shows that the addition of approximately 1 wt % H₂O reduced the number of plagioclase crystals while increasing their sizes (Fig. 4a, b). In contrast, Cl did not seem to significantly affect the number or size of plagioclase crystals (Fig. 4b, c). These differences in plagioclase size appear to correlate with the calculated nucleation delays, which were significantly increased by water addition and barely affected by chlorine (Table 6).

The effect of H₂O on crystal nucleation was described by Fenn (1977), who observed a decrease in the nucleation density of alkali feldspar with increasing H₂O content in the system NaAlSi₃O₈-KAlSi₃O₈-H₂O. However, experimental results concerning the influence of H₂O on nucleation kinetics in silicate melts are generally contradictory (Baker and Grove, 1985; Davis et al., 1997; Fenn, 1977; Swanson, 1977), implying that the effect of H₂O cannot be considered independently of other parameters affecting crystallization. Nevertheless, water (i) decreases crystallization temperatures of silicates (Almeev et al., 2012; Sisson and Grove, 1993), (ii) reduces the viscosity of silicate melts (Shaw, 1963), (iii) increases diffusion rates within silicate melts (Watson and Baker, 1991), and (iv) reduces the interfacial free energy between the melt and the growing crystal (Davis et al., 1997; Rusiecka et al., 2020). All of these effects likely favor crystal growth, explaining why the addition of 1 wt % H₂O significantly increases plagioclase size in our dynamic experiments (Fig. 4a, b). Cl, like H₂O, can affect the viscosity of basaltic melts (Webb et al., 2014) and suppress the liquidus temperatures in basalt (Filiberto and Treiman, 2009). Both effects are likely to be less significant than those of H₂O, possibly explaining why the role of Cl on crystal growth seems to be negligible with respect to that of H₂O in our experiments.

## 4.4 Crystallization kinetics and the degree of undercooling

Crystallization is the thermodynamically driven physicochemical response of a melt to a decrease in temperature relative to the liquidus (saturation) temperature. Crystallization can occur by (1) isobaric cooling (e.g., emplacement of magma), (2) isothermal decompression (e.g., ascending magma), or (3) simultaneous decompression and cooling (Shea and Hammer, 2013). When the melt is rapidly cooled below its liquidus temperature, the term undercooling is used. Undercooling could be due to either heat conduction or an increase in the liquidus temperature itself, for example, due to H₂O loss during magma decompression (Mollard et al., 2012). The degree of undercooling determines the ratio of growth rate to nucleation rate, which determines rock texture. In general, low degrees of undercooling favor crystal growth, whereas high degrees of undercooling favor high nucleation rates (Shea and Hammer, 2013).

Our results indicate that the net effect of H₂O is to reduce the degree of undercooling, allowing plagioclase growth to take precedence over nucleation, resulting in coarse crystallinity. This is consistent with previous experimental findings that H₂O addition reduces the degree of undercooling (Arzilli et al., 2020; Hammer, 2004; Hammer and Rutherford, 2002; Mollard et al., 2012). Moreover, an increase in feldspar size and decrease in abundance with decreasing degree of undercooling has also been reported for (i) basaltic melts in cooling experiments (Vona and Romano, 2013), (ii) hydrous basaltic andesitic magmas in cooling and isothermal decompression experiments (Shea and Hammer, 2013), and (iii) water-saturated rhyolitic melts in decompression experiments (Mollard et al., 2012).

## 4.5 Implications for the formation of homogeneous mafic pegmatites from the mafic-ultramafic Hamn intrusion, Northern Norway

Despite the lack of a quantitative demonstration, our experiments at 1150 °C and 300 MPa strongly suggest that the addition of 1 wt % H₂O to the Hamn mafic magma reduces the number and increases the size of plagioclase crystals (e.g., Fig. 4a, b). These experimental results support the hypothesis that H₂O is a crucial factor in the formation of coarse grain size in mafic rocks (Beard and Scott, 2018; Larsen and Brooks, 1994; Pentek et al., 2006). In particular, the unzoned pegmatites of the Hamn intrusion exhibit several petrological and geochemical characteristics, suggesting that H₂O and Cl enrichment in the magma may be the cause of the pegmatitic texture (Heckmann et al., 2022): (i) the major and trace element compositions of pegmatites are very similar to those of their host gabbronorites, (ii) the mineral assemblage and mineral chemistry of pegmatites and their host gabbronorites are the same, except for (iii) abundant sausuritization and scapolitization within the pegmatites (not observed in the host gabbronorite). Notably, plagioclase breakdown into zoisite and more sodic plagioclase occurs in the presence of H₂O at high temperatures (~600 °C at 800 MPa and ~700 °C at 1 GPa; Goldsmith, 1982). The presence of plagioclase breakdown in unzoned pegmatitic pockets and its absence in host rocks strongly suggest that an aqueous phase existed during the late magmatic stages of pegmatite formation, whereas it was absent or less abundant in host gabbronorites. We propose that the unzoned pegmatitic pockets at Hamn formed from magma that was locally H₂O-richer than the rest of the intrusive body. The presence of Cl-rich phases within the pegmatites (scapolite, chlorapatite, and amphibole) indicates that the magma was Cl-bearing and likely Cl-rich (Heckmann et al., 2022), similar to other mafic pegmatites (Meurer and Boudreau, 1996; Pentek et al., 2006; Sonnenthal, 1992). However, our experiments did not indicate any significant role for Cl in the formation of the pegmatitic texture.
Moreover, the dynamic experiments revealed the effect of H₂O on plagioclase crystal size, which was not observed in the equilibrium experiment.

However, our experiments did not indicate any significant role for Cl in the formation of the pegmatitic texture.
# 5 Conclusions

Thermodynamic models using the MELTS software are in good agreement with the composition of the residual melt and the endmember composition of plagioclase of the water-bearing equilibrium samples. The discrepancy between the nominally anhydrous phase equilibrium experiment and MELTS prediction for dry melts can be explained by the increase in water caused by hydrogen diffusion through the capsule wall during the experiment, which caused redox reactions with the melt.

The dynamic experiments conducted at 300 MPa under oxygen fugacity conditions ranging from FMQ – 1.65 to FMQ + 0.05 revealed that, in the studied basaltic melt, plagioclase size increased while its abundance decreased with increasing H₂O concentrations. The addition of H₂O reduces undercooling, lowering the nucleation rate versus growth rate ratio, and as a result increases crystal size and decreases plagioclase abundance. In contrast to H₂O, the addition of Cl did not seem to increase the plagioclase size. Cl may not reduce the undercooling as much as water. Consequently, Cl may have a negligible effect on the nucleation and growth rate, which controls the crystal size and abundance.

Plagioclase nucleation was delayed by H₂O. Thermodynamic and kinetic calculations support this experimental finding. H₂O decreases the undercooling while increasing the activation and interfacial free energies compared to bulk free energy per unit volume change. Consequently, the nucleation delay increases. Similarly, Cl increases the nucleation delay of plagioclase in experiments, although the calculations do not support this finding. An increase in the activation and interface free energies reactive to the bulk free energy per change per unit volume could explain this increase.
