Petrogenetic insights from chromite in ultramafic cumulates of
Chromite is one of the earliest crystallized minerals from mafic melts and has been used as an important “petrogenetic indicator.” Its composition may be modified by interaction with intercumulate melt and adjacent minerals. Thus, chromite in mafic-ultramafic rocks contains clues to the geochemical affinity, evolution, and mantle source of its parent

Among these deposits, the chemistry of chromite ore is very variable, ranging from high Al (Cr#=0.43–0.55) to high Cr (Cr#=0.60–0.83) compositions. Platinum-group element (PGE) contents are also variable

What is chromite (chrome) ore and where is it found
Chrome ore is found in basic and ultrabasic igneous rocks and in the metamorphic and sedimentary rocks that are produced when chromite-bearing rocks are altered by heat or weathering. There are two main types of chromite deposits: stratiform deposits and podiform deposits. Zimbabwe is the only country that contains notable chromite

Chromite is a mineral used as the main source of chromium, a malleable metal. This mineral is actually a chromium oxide in the chemical form of FeCr2O4. Chromite exists mainly in veins and small masses as an element of mother rock and iron. Most of the chromium used in the steel industry is to produce stainless steels and alloy steels.
3.2.1 Occurrence.
