Mineralogical and thermobarogeochemical studies allowed us to reveal the crystallization conditions of plagioclase in volcanic complexes of Sulawesi Island (Pacific Ocean). The composition of plagioclases indicates the presence of three types of melts, which were involved in the formation of plagioclase phenocrysts in basalts, andesites and dacites, as well as crystallites in the groundmass of andesites and dacites. The analysis of glasses of heated melt inclusions in plagioclase indicates the involvement of two contrasting melts (mafic and felsic) in crystallization of phenocrysts. At the final stages of volcanic processes, plagioclase in matrix of andesites and dacites formed from another felsic melts with maximum alkali content. The presence of primary syngenetic melt and fluid inclusions in plagioclase phenocrysts indicates the phase separation of felsic magmas, which led to the crystallization of feldspar phenocrysts of different composition during the formation of dacites. Computational modeling in a program (Putirka, 2008) based on the composition of plagioclases, glasses of heated inclusions and glasses from the groundmass allowed us to estimate the crystallization temperatures of feldspar phenocrysts in basalts (1160–1120 ?С), andesites (930–890 ?С) and dacites (1020–950 ?С), as well as the feldspar microcrystals in the groundmass of andesites (875–810 ?С) and dacites (890–850 ?С).
