Large-ion lithophile elements(LILE) are present at variable but high concentrations(e. g., Ba=62-1920 ppm, Sr=176-2567 ppm) relative to most high field strength element(HFSE) abundances(e. g., Y=10-37 ppm, Zr=8-421 ppm), and light rare-earth elements(LREE) have much higher concentrations than heavy rare-earth elements(HREE)(La/Lu=24-330). 7, record 1, English, - large%2Dion%20lithophile%20element

Les éléments lithophiles à grand rayon ionique apparaissent en concentrations variables mais élevées (ex., Ba = 62-1920 ppm, Sr = 176-2567 ppm), comparativement aux concentrations des éléments à forte intensité de champ (ex., Y = 10-37 ppm, Zr = 8-421 ppm), et les éléments à terre rare légère sont beaucoup plus abondants que les éléments à terre rare lourde (La/Lu = 24-330). 6, record 1, French, - %C3%A9l%C3%A9ment%20lithophile%20%C3%A0%20grand%20rayon%20ionique
