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.

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 ...

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.

Abundance and Partitioning of OH in a High-pressure Magmatic System: Megacrysts from the Monastery Kimberlite, South Africa [PDF]
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.

Kimberlites of the Manchary pipe: a new kimberlite field in Central Yakutia
Abstract This paper reports new petrographic and mineralogical data on the Manchary kimberlite pipe, which was discovered south of Yakutsk (Central Yakutia) in 2007–2008, 100 km. The pipe breaks through the Upper Cambrian carbonate deposits and is overlain by Jurassic terrigenous rock masses about 100 m thick.

A contribution to aeromagnetic deculturing in populated areas [PDF]
Modern regional airborne magnetic data sets when acquired in populated areas are inevitably degraded by cultural interference. In the UK context, the spatial densities of interfering structures and their complex spatial form severely limit our ability to

Interaction between protokimberlite melts and mantle lithosphere: evidence from mantle xenoliths from the Dalnyaya kimberlite pipe, Yakutia (Russia) [PDF]
The Dalnyaya kimberlite pipe (Yakutia, Russia) contains mantle peridotite xenoliths (mostly lherzolites and harzburgites) that show both sheared porphyroclastic (deformed) and coarse granular textures, together with ilmenite and clinopyroxene megacrysts.

Comparative characteristics of diamonds from areas with a high density of kimberlite bodies
Background. This paper presents a comparative study into diamonds from kimberlite bodies of the Verkhnemunsky field (Zapolyarnaya, Novinka, Komsomolskaya-Magnitnaya and Poiskovaya), the results of which allow these minerals to be distinguished from those

It is suggested that the Tunguska event in June 1908 cm-large was due to a cm-large ball of a condensate of bound states of 6 top and 6 anti-top quarks containing highly compressed ordinary matter. Such balls are supposed to make up the dark matter as we
