Characteristics of the Deep Structure of the Kimberlite-Controlling Faults of the Arkhangelsk Diamondiferous Province According to the Microseismic Sounding Method. Review

open access: yesRussian Journal of Earth Sciences
Prospecting for kimberlite pipes can be challenging due to their small size in plan. One potential solution to this problem is to search for kimberlite-controlling faults.

Deformation Controlled Fluid Mass‐Transfer Processes in Ancient Orogens

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 6, 28 March 2025.
Abstract Despite abundant empirical evidence, the details of coupled deformation and mass transfer processes within a framework of the crustal architecture of ancient orogens remains enigmatic. Geophysical imaging of the Larder Lake‐Cadillac deformation zone, a well‐endowed crustal‐scale fault system in the Superior Province of the Canadian Shield ...

A FIRST REPORT ON THE ROLE OF TRACE ELEMENT PEDOGEOCHEMISTRY IN DIAMOND EXPLORATION- AN EXAMPLE FROM LATTAVARAM KIMBERLITE CLUSTER, SOUTHERN INDIA

open access: yesGeochimica Brasiliensis, 2018
Trends in a concentration of selected trace elements in residual soils on four known diamondiferous kimberlite pipes (3, 4, 8 and 9) occurring at Lattavaram within the Wajrakarur Kimberlite Field (WKF) is attempted for the first time.

ABOUT LITHOMINERALOGICAL COMPOSITION OF ANCIENT SEDIMENTARY DIAMONDIFEROUS ROCKS

open access: yesИзвестия высших учебных заведений: Геология и разведка, 2018
Litho-mineralogical and structural-formation generation features of Upper Devonian-Carboniferous crusts of weathering on terrigenous-carbonate rocks, kimberlites and deposits enriched by products of their redeposition, have been studied, that allowed ...

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

An ion microprobe U-Th-Pb study of zircon xenocrysts from the Lahtojoki kimberlite pipe, eastern Finland [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 2001
Eleven relatively large (diameter 1–2 mm) zircon grains extracted from the Lahtojoki kimberlite pipe (Eastern Finland Kimberlite Province) have been analysed by the ion microprobe NORDSIM for their U- and Pb- isotopic composition.

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 ...

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.
