Geochemical studies of upper mantle rocks (peridotites) provide insights into the Earth`s upper mantle evolution from the Archean to the present. This is because mantle processes play a key role in the formation of continents and largely assign geochemical properties of the Earth`s crust. This book represents geochemical study of upper mantle rocks at two sites from different geological settings of the Bohemian Massif (Czech Republic) - Kozákov and Horní Bory. These localities were chosen as unique mantle suites, which could provide insights into the upper mantle processes (mantle depletion, metasomatism, melt-rock reactions) and behaviour of trace and highly siderophile elements in the upper mantle.
