We examined detrital chromian spinels, in recent river beds, derived from the mantle section to determine whether the mantle peridotite of the northern Oman ophiolite is of oceanic or arc origin. The Cr-number (= Cr/(Cr+Al) atomic ratio) of the detrital chromian spinels mostly ranges from 0.4 to 0.8, and more than 60% of them have Cr-numbers higher...
