Apatite and Matrix Glass Geochemistry from Torfajökull Volcano (Iceland)

Abstract: This dataset includes apatite and matrix glass epma analyses from 5 eruptive units from Torfajökull Volcano. The eruptive units are ITN (Namshraun, 1477 AD), ITHN (Hrafntinnuhraun, 870 AD) IETR (Rauðufossafjöll, 67 ka), IETG (Gvendarhyrna, 278 ka), IETHB (Harbarmur, 384 ka). Holocene rhyolites are metaluminous, and Pleistocene rhyolites are peraklaline.
