Formation of serpentinite by hydration and metamorphic transformation of olivine
Serpentinite partially made of chrysotile, from Slovakia
Serpentinization is a hydration and metamorphic transformation of ferromagnesian minerals, such as olivine and pyroxene, in mafic and ultramafic rock to produce serpentinite.[1] Minerals formed by serpentinization include the serpentine group minerals (antigorite, lizardite, chrysotile), brucite, talc, Ni-Fe alloys, and magnetite.[1][2] The mineral alteration is particularly important at the sea floor at tectonic plate boundaries.[3][4]
