    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé On a determiné la teneur de strontium dans 6 échantillons de fluorite et 7 échantillons de calcite d'un gisement à fluorite près de Monte delle Fate, Cerveteri (Latium; Italie centrale). De plus les rapports isotopiques du même élément ont été mésurés pour deux échantillons choisis. Les teneurs du strontium dans la calcite et la fluorite varient de 1 200 à 2 620 ppm et de 10 à 360 ppm, respectivement. La valeur du rapport 87Sr/86Sr est pour la calcite 0,7087 et pour la fluorite 0,7091. Ces rapports indiquent que les sédiments marins ont été la source de la plupart du strontium dans les deux minéraux. Selon le coefficient de distribution du strontium, la fluorite, de déposition postérieure à la calcite, n'a pas pu précipiter de la même eau de la calcite. Les teneurs élevées de l'élément dans la calcite sont la conséquence de l'interaction des eaux bicarbonatées avec les sédiments sulfate-évaporitiques du Triassique supérieur. Au contraire les eaux primaires de la fluorite ont circulé dans les sédiments post-Triassiques.
    Notes: Abstract Sr content was measured in 6 fluorite and 7 calcite samples from an epithermal deposit of fluorite at Monte delle Fate near Cerveteri (Latium, Italy). Sr isotope ratios were obtained from two selected samples. Sr contents of calcite range from 1,200 to 2,620 ppm and of fluorite from 10 to 360 ppm. 87Sr/86Sr values of calcite and fluorite are 0.7087 and 0.7091, respectively. Such isotope ratios clearly indicate that the bulk of strontium present in both minerals was provided by marine sedimentary reservoirs. According to the Sr distribution coefficient, the low contents measured in fluorite, which formed after calcite, clearly prove that the mineral was not deposited by the same kind of waters from which calcite originated. The high Sr contents of calcite suggest that the bicarbonate-bearing waters have largely interacted with Ca-sulphate evaporites of Upper Triassic age. On the contrary, the waters from which fluorite precipitated were apparently involved in a more superficial circulation through post-Triassic sedimentary formations.

    Notes: Abstract Major, trace element and Sr isotopic compositions have been determined on 21 lava samples from Vico volcano, Roman Province, Central Italy. The rocks investigated range from leucite tephritic phonolites to leucite phonolites and trachytes. Trace element compositions are characterized by high enrichments of incompatible elements which display strong variations in rocks with a similar degree of evolution. Well-defined linear trends are observed between pairs of incompatible trace elements such as Th-Ta, Th-La, Th-Hf. A decrease of Large Ion Lithophile (LIL) elements abundance contemporaneously with the formation of a large central caldera is one of the most prominent characteristics of trace element distribution. Sr isotope ratios range from 0.71147 to 0.71037 in the pre-caldera lavas and decreases to values of 0.70974–0.70910 in the lavas erupted after the caldera collapse. Theoretical modelling of geochemical and Sr isotopic variations indicates that, while fractional crystallization was an important evolutionary process, AFC and mixing also played key roles during the evolution of Vico volcano. AFC appears to have dominated during the early stages of the volcanic history when evolved trachytes with the highest Sr isotope ratios were erupted. Mixing processes are particularly evident in volcanites emplaced during the late stages of Vico evolution. According to the model proposed, the evolution of potassic magmas emplaced in a shallow-level reservoir was dominated by crystal fractionation plus wall rock assimilation and mixing with ascending fresh mafic magma. This process generated a range of geochemical and isotopic compositions in the mafic magmas which evolved by both AFC and simple crystal liquid fractionation, producing evolved trachytes and phonolites with variable trace element and Sr isotopic compositions.

    Notes: Abstract Trace element data are reported in 21 lava samples from the Alban Hills, one of the most important volcanic complexes of the Roman comagmatic region. The samples consist mostly of tephritic leucitites with minor phonolitic tephrites and tephritic phonolites emplaced during two distinct phases of activity, separated by a caldera collapse. The ferromagnesian element contents are variable (Ni=93-26 ppm; Co=37-20 ppm; Cr=359-5 ppm; Sc=35-6 ppm) and tend to have higher values in the post-caldera rocks. Rb, Cs, Th, Sr, and LREE are extremely enriched in all the samples analyzed, with the pre-caldera rocks displaying a lower content of Rb and Cs and a higher abundance of Th, light REE and La/Yb ratio. Ta and Hf are not so high and are more enriched in the pre-caldera samples. Sr displays comparable values in the two groups of rocks. The trace element variation indicates that the rocks from the Alban Hills represent two distinct series of liquids formed by crystal/liquid fractionation processes starting from two parental magmas. The genesis of the primary melts is hypothesized as due to a low degree of partial melting of a mantle peridotite enriched in incompatible elements. All of the studied samples have distribution patterns of incompatible elements normalized against a hypothetical primordial mantle composition, which are similar to that displayed by the aeolian calc-alkaline and leucite-tephritic products and distinctively different from those of typical K-rich volcanics from an intraplate rift environment. This strongly supports the hypothesis that there is a close genetic connection between Roman magmatism and subductionrelated processes.
