Secular Variation in the North American Kimberlite Formation: The Variable Connection to LLSVPs

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Kimberlites are rare and perplexing igneous rocks that may represent the deepest‐sourced melt type extracted from within the Earth's mantle, and their origin may be associated with Large Low Shear Velocity Provinces (LLSVPs) along the core‐mantle ...

A Machine Learning Approach to Single Garnet Geothermometry and Application to Tracing the Fingerprint of Superdeep Diamonds

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Estimating the equilibration temperatures of mantle‐derived garnets is crucial for assessing the diamond potential of kimberlites. Traditional garnet geothermometers require co‐existing mineral data or costly trace element analysis, limiting their ...
