Geological and structural characteristics of deep-level rock mass of the Udachnaya pipe deposit

Записки Горного института, 2021
For hard rock massifs, structural disturbance is a key indicator of mining structure stability. The presence of intersecting structural elements in the massif reduces rock strength and leads to formation of potential collapse structures.

Experiences of Legal Pluralism in Sierra Leone: Land Governance, Neoliberal Dispossession and Gender (In)justice

Development and Change, Volume 57, Issue 2, Page 315-338, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Sierra Leone's land governance reform policies are often based on the neoliberal assumption that market growth, gender equality and women's empowerment are mutually compatible objectives. Contrary to this assumption, this article argues that while market‐oriented reforms can help to destabilize legal and cultural norms that are discriminatory ...

East Meets West: The Trace of the Mesoproterozoic Kibaran Event in the Mantle Lithosphere Beneath Eastern Tanzania

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract We present elemental geochemistry and multiple isotopic systematics (Re‐Os, Lu‐Hf, Sm‐Nd and Sr) for mantle peridotite xenoliths from Lashaine in northern Tanzania. We use the data to examine how the major Proterozoic tectono‐thermal events that affected the crust of the western Tanzanian craton are imprinted on the lithospheric mantle in the ...

Electrical Conductivity of Carbonatite Melts to 20 GPa: Constraints on Partial Melting Atop the 410‐km Discontinuity and in the Lower Mantle Transition Zone

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Deep‐origin carbonatite melts are considered to be the products of partial‐melting of the oceanic crust in the subduction zones. In this study, we conducted electrical conductivity (EC) measurements on two samples, the composition of which resemble the partial‐melting products atop the 410‐km discontinuity and in the lower part of the ...

Study of Garnets in Hellenistic–Roman Jewellery From the Collections of the Archaeological Museum of Thessaloniki, Greece

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, Volume 56, Issue 11, Page 1235-1253, November 2025.
This study presents the gemological analysis of 25 garnets from Hellenistic and Roman jewellery in the Archaeological Museum of Thessaloniki using mobile Raman spectroscopy and micro‐EDXRF. The garnets are classified into three geochemical clusters, with notable differences in distribution between Thessaloniki and Pydna, suggesting distinct trading ...

Secular Variation in the North American Kimberlite Formation: The Variable Connection to LLSVPs

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Kimberlites are rare and perplexing igneous rocks that may represent the deepest‐sourced melt type extracted from within the Earth's mantle, and their origin may be associated with Large Low Shear Velocity Provinces (LLSVPs) along the core‐mantle boundary.

STRUCTURAL-GEODYNAMIC CONTROL OF KIMBERLITE PIPES OF THE YAKUT DIAMOND PROVINCE ACCORDING TO THE DATA OF GRAVISTRUCTURAL ANALYSIS

Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2021
The article deals with the fundamental concepts of a new method of interpretation of regional gravimetry (scale 1:1000000) based on the idea of the deformational nature of low-frequency gravity anomalies.
