Oxygen fugacity of Alto Paranaíba kimberlites and diamond instability: Três Ranchos IV and Limeira I intrusions

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Geology, 2020
Oxygen fugacity (ƒO2) conditions were established for Três Ranchos IV (TR-IV, diamond-bearing) and Limeira I (LM-I, barren) kimberlite intrusions, in Alto Paranaíba Alkaline Province, to constrain a possible correlation between fO2 and diamond ...

The lithospheric mantle and lower crust-mantle relationships under Scotland: a xenolithic perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In the British Isles the majority of volcanic rocks containing upper mantle and lower crustal xenoliths occur in Scotland. Most of the occurrences are of Carboniferous–Permian age.

GENESIS OF EXTREMELY MAGNESIAN DAUGHTER OLIVINE OF SECONDARY MELT INCLUSIONS FROM OLIVINE MACROCRYSTS IN KIMBERLITE FROM THE UDACHNAYA-EAST PIPE (SIBERIAN CRATON)

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика
The paper presents the results of studies of daughter olivine within secondary melt inclusions marking healed cracks in olivine macrocrysts from unserpentinized kimberlite from the Udachnaya-East pipe.

PREDICTION OF THE PRIMARY SOURCES OF GIANT CLIPPIR DIAMONDS IN THE NORTH OF YAKUTIA BY THE METHOD OF MINERALOGICAL AND GEOCHEMICAL ANALOGY (METHOD 5E DIAGRAMS)

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика
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 ...

Petrography and mineral chemistry of Northeast Africa 053—A remnant of Martian crystal mush

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract In Earth's igneous systems, crystal mushes, crystal‐rich frameworks permeated by silicate melt, represent a common and fundamental stage in the evolution of magma bodies. However, whether crystal mushes occur within Martian igneous systems and play a comparable role is unknown. Here, we present a comprehensive petrography and mineral chemistry

The origin of kimberlite [PDF]

open access: yes, 1980
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.

Kimberlite ascent and eruption [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2007
Wilson and Head model kimberlite ascent and eruption by considering the propagation of a volatile-rich dyke. Wilson and Head's model has features in common with Sparks et al., but it is inconsistent with geological observations and constraints on volatile solubility. Here we show that this may be due to erroneous physical assumptions.

Tunguska Dark Matter Ball

open access: yes, 2015
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

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,
