The data were collected in two samples, with high- and low- angle grain boundaries (HAGB, 60°, [100]/(011) and SB, 13°, [100]/(016)). The EBSD data are the basis for the HR-EBSD calculation. The HR-EBSD results are presented as Matlab data files. The nanoindentation data are categorised as a function of sample (‘ol13’ – low-angle grain boundary; and ‘ol60’ – high-angle grain boundary), and indenter tip geometry (spherical (with a 10 or 5 micron radius) and pyramidal (Berkovich). The data are presented in .xls files. The TEM data are presented as .tif files. The TEM data were collected in specific indents with various distances from the interfaces. These data have been published in the manuscript: : The Role of Grain Boundaries in Low-Temperature Plasticity of Olivine Revealed by Nanoindentation, with the DOI: 10.1029/2023JB026763 Diana Avadanii University of Oxford not available pointOfContact Diana Avadanii University of Oxford not available originator Enquiries British Geological Survey United Kingdom not available distributor Enquiries British Geological Survey United Kingdom not available owner Enquiries British Geological Survey United Kingdom not available pointOfContact notApplicable https://resources.bgs.ac.uk/images/geonetworkThumbs/0bc51c9d-10cb-58ac-e063-0937940ae41d.png Geology GEMET - INSPIRE themes, version 1.0 2008-06-01 publication Backscatter X ray diffraction Olivine BGS Thesaurus of Geosciences 2022 revision NGDC Deposited Data dataCentre NERC_DDC otherRestrictions licenceOGL Available under the Open Government Licence subject to the following acknowledgement accompanying the reproduced NERC materials "Contains NERC materials ©NERC [year]" otherRestrictions The copyright of materials derived from the British Geological Survey's work is vested in the Natural Environment Research Council [NERC].

We investigated the residual impressions of the nanoindents using high-angular resolution electron backscatter diffraction (HR-EBSD). For this purpose, we collected EBSD patterns using an Oxford Instruments NordlysNano EBSD detector and stored them for subsequent cross-correlation analysis. We prepared the TEM foils using a FEI Helios® Nanolab G3 Dualbeam system at the Utrecht University microscopy center. We imaged two liftouts using an FEI Talos® F200X with an acquisition acceleration voltage of 200 kV and a beam current of 5–10 nA, also at the Utrecht University microscopy center. We additionally imaged two liftouts using a JEOL® 2100F microscope at Imperial College London. The microscope was operated with an acquisition acceleration voltage of 200 kV, and an emission current of 120 μA.
