Funding

This research belongs to the study of the youngest volcanic activity in the Carpathian-Pannonian region, funded by the Hungarian National Science Foundation to SH (OTKA no. 68587) and supported also by a co-operative Hungarian-Austrian project (TET_10-1-2011-0694) on the origin of the basaltic volcanism in the Pannonian Basin. Discussion with Eva Jankovics and Balks Kiss provided a continuous inspiration during this research. We thank Franz Kiraly for the careful help during the microprobe work in Vienna. Constructive comments provided by two anonymous reviewers as well as the helpful remarks given by Dejan Prelevic contributed significantly to improve the manuscript. We thank Hilary Downes for helping with the final English corrections.
