Mineralogical and geochemical features of chromitites of the Apshak area (South Kraka ultramafic massif, South Urals) [PDF]
Mineral composition of chromitites of the Apshak area in the northwestern part of the South Kraka massif (the largest representative of the Kraka group ophiolites), which is confined to the northern closure of the Zilair Synclinorium on the western slope

Ophiolite-Hosted Diamond: A New Window for Probing Carbon Cycling in the Deep Mantle
As reported in our prior work, we have recovered microdiamonds and other unusual minerals, including pseudomorph stishovite, moissanite, qingsongite, native elements, metallic alloys, and some crustal minerals (i.e., zircon, quartz, amphibole, and rutile)

The occurrence, origin, and fate of water in chromitites in ophiolites
Abstract We present petrological investigations and mineral chemistry of several Tethyan ophiolites to reveal the occurrence, origin, and fate of water in podiform chromitites. The results show that clinopyroxene and olivine in chromitites have H2O contents of 801–366 and 53–17 ppm, respectively.

Mg-RICH THOMSONITE-Ca FROM CHROMITITES OF THE LEKKHOYLA OCCURRENCE, VOYKAR-SYN’YA MASSIF, POLAR URALS [PDF]
The paper describes a previously unknown isomorphic series between thomsonite-Ca and a hypothetical Mg-rich zeolite. The Mg-rich thomsonite-Ca was found for the first time in hydrothermal veins of the Lekkhoyla chromite occurrence (Polar Urals, Russia ...

Chromian spinel geochemistry as a petrogenetic indicator in the chromitites and peridotites of the Bajgan Complex, Western Makran [PDF]
IntroductionEconomic chromite deposits are very common in ophiolite belts. These deposits usually occur in the uppermost horizons of the ophiolite mantle sequence or within the ultramafic cumulitic rocks at the base of the crustal sequence (González ...

FRACTURED TECTONICS OF CHROMITITES OF THE MAIN SARANOVSKOYE DEPOSIT (PERM KRAI)
The Main Saranovskoe deposit is one of the largest chrome deposits in Russia. The chrome ore bodies are localized in the ultramafites of the Northern Saranovsky massif which has been studied since 1907. The research revealed that the massif is similar to

PGM in chromitites of Kraka massifs (the Southern Urals): diversity and origin
The paper provides results of study of platinum group minerals (PGMs) from 18 ore occurrences and deposits of the Kraka massifs, most of these located in ultramafic rocks of the upper mantle section (15), and several occurrences in a crust-mantle ...

Olivine-chrome-spinel equilibrium in chromitites and ultramafites of Rai-Iz massif, Polar Urals
Olivine and chrome-spinel compositions from chromitites and ore-bearing metamorphosed ultramafic rocks of Rai-Iz massif were compared. It was established that olivine and spinel ferruginosity are directly proportional and increase monotonically from ...
