Limestone, graded sands, marl oozes and debris-flow muds from DSDP Leg 13 and ODP Leg 160 (Kirchenbaur and Münker, 2015; Klaver et al., 2015), taken as the composition of sediments subducted beneath the Troodos arc in the Late Cretaceous; their δ49Ti (+0.008 to +0.224 ‰) overlaps that of the Troodos lavas (Kommescher et al., 2023).

| 0.154 ± 0.085 ‰ | 0.008 / 0.224 ‰ | 5 | drill-core sediment (bulk) Mean and standard deviation recalculated from 5 analyses, +0.008 to +0.224 (DSDP-13-127-18-1-100/102cm +0.008; DSDP-13-127-2-5-140/141cm +0.160; DSDP-13-128-6-3-50/52cm +0.224; ODP-160-970-A-9X-1-32/34cm +0.185; ODP-160-970-A-16X-2-44/46cm +0.193). The text assigns these holes to DSDP Leg 16; the sample names indicate Leg 13. The text gives +0.008 to +0.193 ‰, DSDP-13-128 reaches +0.224 ‰. | Kommescher et al.
