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.

Combustion and Pyrolysis EA-IRMS Techniques to Determine the δ<sup>2</sup>H of Diamonds. [PDF]

open access: yesRapid Commun Mass Spectrom
ABSTRACT Rationale Diamonds are generally considered to be metasomatic minerals originating from the Earth's mantle. They formed through the interaction of carbon‐bearing fluids or melts with the surrounding deep lithology. Most knowledge about the formation of diamonds comes from studying their mineral inclusions or stable isotopes.

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.

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.

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

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 ...

Petrogenetic processes in the ultramafic, alkaline and carbonatitic magmatism in the Kola Alkaline Province: a review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Igneous rocks of the Devonian Kola Alkaline Carbonatite Province (KACP) in NW Russia and eastern Finland can be classified into four groups: (a) primitive mantle-derived silica-undersaturated silicate magmas; (b) evolved alkaline and nepheline syenites; (
