Composition variations of Cr-spinel in high-Mg rocks of the Primorsky Ridge (Western Baikal region, Russia) are reported here. A specific feature of Cr-spinels in ultramafic rocks of the Primorsky Ridge is their noticeably high Ti content (up to 6.5 wt.%) compared to spinels in mantle peridotites. The presence of high TiO2 content in Cr-spinels enclosed in olivine crystals may be a clear indication of the primary magmatic nature of Ti enrichment. Two types of Cr-spinel were identified in ultramafic rocks from all intrusions. Cr-spinels of Type I are enclosed in the inner part of olivine crystals and are homogeneous Al-rich chromites and Fe2+-rich chromites. They are characterized by variable content of TiO2 (1.0–5.3 wt.%), moderately high Cr# (0.7–0.83), and low Fe3+# (0.20–0.34). Cr-spinels of type II occur in the interstitial space and occur as homogeneous and zoned grains with Al-rich chromite and Fe2+-rich chromite cores. Al-rich chromite cores have a composition similar to that of the Cr-spinel enclosed in olivine crystals. Fe2+-rich chromite cores have relatively high MgO (3.8–6.2 wt.%), Al2O3 (8–9 wt.%), and TiO2 (2.6–2.8 wt.%) content, low MnO (0.34–0.52 wt.%) content, and a low Fe3+# (0.25–0.27) ratio.
