Reaffirming the Consistency of the Original Stock of NBS 19 Limestone and Its Byproduct With Finer Grain Size for δ13C and δ18O Calibrations—Both Distributed Internationally [PDF]

open access: yesRapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 40, Issue 18, 30 September 2026.
ABSTRACT Rationale Approximately 3–4 kg of NBS 19 limestone, prepared in 1982 by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), serves as a primary reference for the carbon isotope scales VPDB and VPDB‐LSVEC and the oxygen isotope scale VPDB. Its consensus values are +1.95‰ for δ13C and −2.2‰ for δ18O measurements.

Carbonatite Melts and Electrical Conductivity in the Asthenosphere [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2008
Electrically conductive regions in Earth's mantle have been interpreted to reflect the presence of either silicate melt or water dissolved in olivine. On the basis of laboratory measurements, we show that molten carbonates have electrical conductivities that are three orders of magnitude higher than those of molten silicate and five orders of magnitude

Geochemical studies and economic perspective of light rare earth element (LREE) enriched carbonatite from Khaderpet, Eastern Dharwar Craton

open access: yesDiscover Geoscience
An account of petrographic features, geochemical character, enriched light rare earth elements (LREEs), and stable isotope (C–O) concentrations in carbonatite occurring in association with lamprophyre clan rock (LCR) from Khaderpet is presented here. The

Depositional History of the Namibian Mud Belt Reveals Late Holocene Weakening of the Benguela Coastal Current

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract We investigate late Holocene changes in the northern Benguela Upwelling System using a multi‐proxy approach on shallow shelf deposits from the Namibian mud belt. Three sediment cores characterized by organic carbon‐rich, anoxic, and partly gas‐bearing sediments were retrieved along a sampling transect at 23°S in August 2019.

Kamafugite Magma Pathways and Lava‐Flow Paleotopography From Three‐Dimensional Audiomagnetotelluric Imaging Constrained by Borehole Data

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract An audiomagnetotelluric (AMT) survey was conducted within the Alto Paranaíba Igneous Province, southeastern Brazil, to delineate shallow occurrences of kamafugite, a rare ultrapotassic volcanic rock worldwide. A dense grid of AMT stations was deployed, allowing the construction of a high‐resolution 3D electrical resistivity model ...

Carbonatites of India [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Geological Society of India, 2019
ABSTRACT Based on the field relations, associated rock types and age, the carbonatite-alkaline rock complexes of India, that are spatially related to deep main faults, rifts and shear zones, have been classified in to two major groups, namely: 1. Middle – late Cretaceous, subvolcanic – volcanic complexes (Amba Dongar, Siriwasan, Swangkre,

U-Pb dating of niobium minerals from the pyrochlore group (Ilmeny-Vishnevogorsky carbonatite-miaskite complex, South Urals)

open access: yesЛитосфера, 2020
The article covers the U-Pb dating of minerals belonging to the pyrochlore group from the rare-metal ore deposits of Ilmeny-Vishnevogorsky carbonatite-miaskite complex (South Urals). Individual pyrochlore crystals were dated through a new technique of in-

Does a carbonatite deposit influence its surrounding ecosystem?

open access: yesFACETS, 2019
Carbonatites are unusual alkaline rocks with diverse compositions. Although previous work has characterized the effects these rocks have on soils and plants, little is known about their impacts on local ecosystems.

A Graphical User Interface Application to Model Open‐System Melting in the Upper Mantle

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The mantle partial melting process is crucial for the physicochemical evolution of the Earth's upper mantle and the generation of mafic crust. The open‐system melting model incorporates continuous melt segregation, interaction with melts or fluids, and crystallization of trapped melt and therefore provides a comprehensive model for simulating ...
