The structure and cryptic layering of the Pados-Tundra ultramafic complex, Serpentinite belt, Kola Peninsula, Russia [PDF]
The Paleoproterozoic Pados-Tundra ultramafic complex, ~6 x 1.5-2.1 km in size and ~2.1 Ga in age, located in the Kola Peninsula of Russia, is the main representative of the Serpentinite belt in the northern Fennoscandian Shield.

The origin of Madagascar chromitites
Abstract Precambrian rocks of Madagascar host numerous chromitite occurrences, ranging from centimeter-thick lenses and seams to orebodies containing millions of tons. Production of chromite concentrates and lumpy, coming from Bemanevika mine that was estimated to have a remaining life of 15 years ( Rahaga, 2009 ), establishes Madagascar as the world

The podiform chromitites in the Dagküplü and Kavak mines, Eskisehir ophiolite (NW-Turkey) : genetic implications of mineralogical and geochemical data [PDF]
Mantle tectonites from Eskisehir (NW-Turkey) include high-Cr chromitites with limited variation of Cr#, ranging from 65 to 82. Mg# ratios are between 54 and 72 and chromite grains contain up to 3.71 wt% Fe2O3 and 0.30 wt% TiO2.

Surprises from the top of the mantle transition zone [PDF]
Recent studies of chromite deposits from the mantle section of ophiolites have revealed a most unusual collection of minerals present as inclusions within the chromite. The initial discoveries were of diamonds from the Luobosa ophiolite in Tibet. Further

Hydrothermal remobilization platinum group elements and their secondary minerals in chromitite deposits of the Eastern Sayan ophiolites (Russia) [PDF]
Serpentinization is an important post-magmatic process in spreading and subducted zones. This process is the cause of the remobilization and redistribution of highly mobile elements, platinum group elements (PGE) and base metals. Secondary platinum group

The Uitkomst intrusion and Nkomati Ni-Cu-Cr-PGE deposit, South Africa: trace element geochemistry, Nd isotopes and high-precision geochronology [PDF]
The Uitkomst intrusion is a tubular mafic-ultramafic layered body that hosts one of South Africa’s largest Ni-Cu-Cr-PGE deposits, Nkomati. The sulphide ore occurs in the form of massive lenses in the immediate quartzitic footwall and as disseminations ...
