Supplemental data were provided by the authors and may not conform to IODP publication formats.

Some core photographs have been tonally enhanced to better illustrate particular features of interest. High-resolution images are available upon request.

Cover photograph shows photomicrograph of a granoblastic basalt, probably the hardest rock type encountered in more than four decades of scientific ocean drilling. These contact metamorphosed rocks form the thermal boundary layer between mid-ocean ridge magma chambers and the hydrothermal circulation of seawater that drive black smoker systems.
