Liquidus isotherms and phase equilibria have been measured in the olivine primary phase field of the MgO-“FeO”-SiO2 system in equilibrium with metallic iron. Liquidus isotherms have been determined in the temperature range from 1523 to 1898 K. The tie lines between liquid and olivine solid solutions have been determined and the results were compared with those obtained in previous studies.
