Recycling Subducted Organic Carbon as Diamonds: An Example From the New Caledonia Forearc Ophiolite
Abstract Micro‐diamonds and moissanite (SiC) have been identified in ophiolitic mantle harzburgites and chromitites of the New Caledonian Peridotite Nappe. The pale yellow (100–250 μm) micro‐diamonds and light blue moissanite (mean −26.5‰, range −33.5‰ to −23.8‰ and mean −26.9‰, range −31.8‰ to −25.6‰ respectively) exhibit consistently strong negative ...
