Abstract 14 Lavas from the current eruption of the Soufrière Hills Volcano, Montserrat exhibit evidence 15 for magma mingling, related to the intrusion of mafic magma at depth. We present detailed 16 field, petrological, textural and geochemical descriptions of mafic enclaves in andesite 17 erupted during 2009-2010, and subdivide the enclaves into three distinct types. Type A are 18 mafic, glassy with chilled margins and few inherited phenocrysts. Type B are more evolved 19 with high inherited phenocryst contents and little glass, and are interpreted as significantly 20 hybridised. Type C are composite, with a mafic interior (type A) and a hybrid exterior (type 21 B). All enclaves define tight linear compositional trends, interpreted as mixing between a 22 Number of figures: 12 32 Number of references: 61 33 Abbreviated title: Mafic enclaves at SHV 34 35 The process of magma mingling, where two or more magmas mix incompletely 36 during magma storage in the crust, is commonly associated with arc volcanism (e.g. Pallister 37 et al. 1992; Clynne 1999) and results in the formation of banded pumice and magmatic 38 mafic enclaves (e.g. Bacon 1986; Clynne 1999; Browne et al. 2006b; Martin et al. 2006b). 39 More complete mixing of magmas is inhibited by large contrasts in viscosity and density, 40 reflecting differences in temperature, composition and crystallinity, and the relative 41
