Olivine‐hosted secondary melt inclusions in xenoliths from five Kaapvaal craton kimberlites of variable diamond grade do not show difference in composition. The composition of 26 minerals identified in the daughter phases suggests carbonate melt rich in alkali, sulfur, chlorine, and phosphorus infiltrated the kimberlite xenoliths.

When a Plateau Suppresses a Plume: Disappearance of the Samoan Plume Under the Ontong Java Plateau
Abstract The Samoan hotspot generated an age‐progressive volcanic track that can be traced back to 24 Ma at Alexa Bank, but the trace of the older portion (>24 Ma) of the hotspot track is unclear. We show that six seamounts located in and around the Magellan Seamount chain—north of the Ontong‐Java Plateau (OJP)—have ages (87–106 Ma), geochemistry, and ...

Crater formation and erosional truncation of Arkhangelskaya kimberlite pipe (Russia)
The Late Devonian kimberlite pipes Arkhangelskaya, Pionerskaya, named after Grib, as well as a number of other pipes, have full sections of crater tufogenic and terrigenous deposits in the Zimneberezhny diamondiferous region, the thickness of which is ...

Ancient Craton‐Wide Mid‐Lithosphere Discontinuity Controlled by Pargasite Channels
Abstract The mechanisms governing a commonly observed seismic velocity drop in the cratonic lithosphere, referred to as the mid‐lithospheric discontinuity (MLD), have been widely debated. To identify the composition and seismic structure of MLDs, we have analyzed Sp receiver functions (SRF) and mantle xenocrysts for six regions across Australia.

The finds of giant CLIPPIR-type diamonds in the placers hosted by the Ebelyakh River basin in the north of Yakutia suggest that similar diamonds can be found in the kimberlites of the Anabar region and the nearest northern deposits located within the ...

The evolution of the crustal stress state of the Catoca kimberlite pipe area (northeastern Angola)
This paper presents the first results of the geostructural and tectonophysical studies of the crustal stress state in the Catoca kimberlite pipe area at the southwestern flank of the Kasai Shield in the northeasternAngola. In the evolution of the crustal
