    Gibbs energy changes of (Mg-Fe) distribution reaction (12) and oxidation reaction (i), (ii), (iii) are calculated on the basis of thermodynamic constant (Table 2) and experimental data (Table 1, Nafziger et al., 1967). Also it is discussed that the error of Gibbs energy changes calculated from experimental data are smaller than the other from thermodynamic constant. As a result of correspondence between Gibbs energy changes obtained from Nafziger et al. (1967) and calculated from thermodynamic data, the thermodynamic constant used in the calculation may be preferable. For the representaiton of Mg-Fe distribution constant, the equation (2) is more suitable in comparison with the equation (13) because of unity on the consideration of the Gibbs energy changes.
    The stability relations of Fe-oxide and silicate are given in Fig. 2. Fe2SiO4 is more strongly persist to Po2 than FeSiO3 at high temperature but reverse at low temperature. Mg- rich olivine coexisting with Ferich pyroxene in calc-alkaline rock (Fig. 3) may be explained by the above relation.
    Also it is discussed that the Mg-Fe distribution in coexisting olivine and pyroxene may be difficult to discuss simply because of non ideality of these minerals.

    In the Nemuro Peninsula in the eastern end of Hokkaido, sheets and lavas of mafic alkaline rocks are abundant. Stratigraphically these alkaline rocks are divided into two stages of igneous activity and are intrusive or extrusive into the Nemuro Formation. From paleontological evidence the Nemuro Formation has been regarded as Late Cretaceous in age.
    The absolute age of six representative samples of the alkaline rocks has been determined by K-Ar dating. The apparent age is as follows: the first stage ranges from 88 to 65m.y. and the second stage, 84 to 67m.y. The least altered sample of the first stage gives 88m.y., and that of the second stage 84m.y. It is, therefore, concluded that the Nemuro Formation and the alkaline rocks were formed at the early stage of the Upper Cretaceous period.
