Water in Eclogite and Pyroxenite Xenoliths From the Bottom 100 km of the Slave Craton (Canada) Mantle Root

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract Major and trace elements, including H2O, were determined in garnet and clinopyroxene to constrain the evolution of mantle xenoliths from Diavik, Canada. The 20 samples, derived from 120 to 220 (240) km depth, define a geotherm equivalent to 37 mW/m2 surface heat flow and include three eclogite (A, B, C) and two pyroxenite (B, C) types (A: High

Mining and Climate Change Alters Water Storage and Streamflow Dynamics of Northern Peatland‐Dominated Catchments

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 60, Issue 12, December 2024.
Abstract The Hudson Bay Lowlands (HBL) of northern Ontario, a globally significant carbon store, are characterized by expansive peatland complexes of patterned bogs and fens, which play a vital role in regional water regulation. These peatlands are threatened by disturbance from large‐scale resource extraction and projected climate change, both of ...

Platinum-group element contents of Karelian kimberlites: implications for the PGE budget of the sub-continental lithospheric mantle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We present high-precision isotope dilution data for Os, Ir, Ru, Pt, Pd and Re in Group I and Group II kimberlites from the Karelian craton, as well as 2 samples of the Premier Group I kimberlite pipe from the Kaapvaal craton. The samples have, on average,

Shock petrographic and numerical modeling constraints on the morphology and size of the Morokweng impact structure, South Africa

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 59, Issue 12, Page 3250-3281, December 2024.
Abstract The 369 m deep M4 drill hole, located ~18 km NNW of the center of the 146 Ma Morokweng impact structure (MIS), intersects shocked Archean granitoid gneisses and subsidiary dolerite intrusions that are cut by faults, cataclasites and mm‐ to m‐wide suevitic and pseudotachylitic breccia dikes.
