Styles of Alteration of Ti Oxides of the Kimberlite Groundmass: Implications on the Petrogenesis and Classification of Kimberlites and Similar Rocks [PDF]
The sequence of replacement in groundmass perovskite and spinel from SK-1 and SK-2 kimberlites (Eastern Dharwar craton, India) has been established. Two types of perovskite occur in the studied Indian kimberlites.

Groundmass Chromospinellides from Kimberlites of Khompu-May Kimberlite Field
Abstract The current paper presents the results of studying chromites of kimberlite mesostasis forming the Manchary, Aprelskaya, Erel, Turakhskaya, and Artemova pipes within the Khompu-May kimberlite field (central Yakutia). Despite shared texture and structural characteristics and mineral composition of the kimberlites, chromospinellide

Extreme 18O-enrichment in majorite constrains a crustal origin of transition zone diamonds [PDF]
The fate of subducted oceanic lithosphere and its role in the planet-scale geochemical cycle is a key problem in solid Earth studies. Asthenospheric and transition zone minerals included in diamond have been interpreted as representing subducted oceanic ...

The origin of kimberlite [PDF]
A new diapiric model for kimberlite genesis takes into account recent interpretations of peridotite-CO_2-H_2O melting relationships. A minor thermal perturbation at depth might trigger release of reduced vapors with major components C-H-O.
