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

Review of the spatial distribution of kimberlite pipes in the tectonic structures of the world
Kimberlite pipes are vertical or inclined cylindrical or cone-shaped bodies filled with kimberlite, an ultramafic igneous rock. The diameter of kimberlite pipes can vary from a few metres to 1.5 km, and their depth reaches several kilometres.

Archaean and Proterozoic diamond growth from contrasting styles of large-scale magmatism [PDF]
Precise dating of diamond growth is required to understand the interior workings of the early Earth and the deep carbon cycle. Here we report Sm-Nd isotope data from 26 individual garnet inclusions from 26 harzburgitic diamonds from Venetia, South Africa.

CO 2 Solubility in Kimberlite melts CO 2 Solubility in Kimberlite melts [PDF]
International audienceCarbon dioxide is the most abundant volatile in kimberlite melts and its solubility exerts a prime influence on the melt structure, buoyancy, transport rate and hence eruption dynamics.

Syn-eruptive agglutination of kimberlite volcanic ash
Pyroclastic deposits of the Holocene Igwisi Hills kimberlite volcanoes, Tanzania, preserve unequivocal evidence for rapid, syn-eruptive agglutination.

Oxide minerals of Kaavi kimberlites (Finland)
The mineralogical and petrogeochemical features of the Neoproterozoic kimberlite rocks of the Lahtojoki and Niilonsuo pipes of the Kaavi cluster (Kaavi-Kuopio, Finland) have been studied, differences in their petrogeochemical composition, quantitative ...

Using perovskite to determine the pre-shallow level contamination magma characteristics of kimberlite [PDF]
It remains difficult to obtain reliable geochemical signatures of uncontaminated kimberlite magma from bulk rock studies due to the combined effects of crustal assimilation and element mobility during post-emplacement alteration processes.
