Large Igneous Province Record Through Time and Implications for Secular Environmental Changes and Geological Time‐Scale Boundaries

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 1-26., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Comparative characteristics of diamonds from areas with a high density of kimberlite bodies

open access: yesИзвестия высших учебных заведений: Геология и разведка, 2023
Background. This paper presents a comparative study into diamonds from kimberlite bodies of the Verkhnemunsky field (Zapolyarnaya, Novinka, Komsomolskaya-Magnitnaya and Poiskovaya), the results of which allow these minerals to be distinguished from those

Abundance and Partitioning of OH in a High-pressure Magmatic System: Megacrysts from the Monastery Kimberlite, South Africa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Concentrations of OH, and major and trace elements were determined in a suite of mantle-derived megacrysts that represent the crystallization products of a kimberlite-like magma at ~5 GPa and ~1400–1100°C.

The transition zone as a host for recycled volatiles: Evidence from nitrogen and carbon isotopes in ultra-deep diamonds from Monastery and Jagersfontein (South Africa) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Sublithospheric (ultra-deep) diamonds provide a unique window into the deepest parts of Earth's mantle, which otherwise remain inaccessible. Here, we report the first combined C- and N-isotopic data for diamonds from the Monastery and Jagersfontein ...

Ultramafic xenoliths from the Bearpaw Mountains, Montana, USA: evidence for multiple metasomatic events in the lithospheric mantle beneath the Wyoming craton [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Ultramafic xenoliths in Eocene minettes of the Bearpaw Mountains volcanic field (Montana, USA), derived from the lower lithosphere of the Wyoming craton, can be divided based on textural criteria into tectonite and cumulate groups. The tectonites consist

Conducting lithospheric heterogeneities as a criterion of predictive assessment for promising diamond areas (on the example of Siberian kimberlite province)

open access: yesЗаписки Горного института, 2017
Results of magnetotelluric tests, carried out in Siberian kimberlite province, are examined from the viewpoint of structural control over location of kimberlite fields and bunches of kimberlite pipes.

Diamonds from low-grade kimberlite

open access: yesРуды и металлы, 2022
Based on exploration and sampling work on the Siberian platform (SP) the uneven diamond content of various diatremes was established. During the exploration apart from the pipes with high or medium content of a useful component also the diatremes with ...

Evidence for a reducing Archean ambient mantle and its effects on the carbon cycle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Chemical reduction-oxidation mechanisms within mantle rocks link to the terrestrial carbon cycle by influencing the depth at which magmas can form, their composition, and ultimately the chemistry of gases released into the atmosphere.
