Nephelinite
Basalt, alkali basalt, basanite, tephritic nephelinite, and nephelinite differ partly in the relative proportions of plagioclase and nepheline. Basanite has a value of this ratio between 0.1 and 0.6 and also contains more than 10% olivine. wikipedia.org

Ortiz porphyry belt
Cieneguilla basanite The younger intrusions in the belt are increasingly alkaline in composition, and include the 25-26 Ma Cieneguilla basanite. Isotope data suggests that the basanite came from mixed mantle source regions. wikipedia.org
