Statement

The majority of samples were analysed as bulk rock powders; a small number consisted of either hand-picked or micro-drilled phases, as indicated in the data tables. Samples were prepared for analysis by acid digestion and ion chromatography to isolate Mg from its matrix. The Mg isotope ratios were analysed by multi-collector inductively coupled mass spectrometry following the critical mixture double spiking theory described in Coath et al. (2017, doi: 10.1016/j.chemgeo.2016.12.025). Full details of the methods have been published in Hin et al. (2017, doi: 10.1038/nature23899).
