Emplacement of the Argyle diamond deposit into an ancient rift zone triggered by supercontinent breakup [PDF]
Argyle is the world’s largest source of natural diamonds, yet one of only a few economic deposits hosted in a Paleoproterozoic orogen. The geodynamic triggers responsible for its alkaline ultramafic volcanic host are unknown. Here we show, using U-Pb and

Mineral chemistry from the Alfeu-I lamproite (Southern Brazil) and its contribution to understand the mantle heterogeneity under South American Plate during the Gondwana breakup [PDF]
The Alfeu-I lamproite is one of the few alkaline rock occurrences in the South of Brazil that represents the alkaline event related to the South Atlantic opening and the enormous magmatic activity that formed the Paraná basalts.

STREAM SEDIMENT CARTOGRAPHY OF KIMBERLITE OCCURRENCES IN KIMPANGU AND ITS SURROUNDINGS (CENTRAL KONGO, DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF THE CONGO) USING GEOCHEMICAL SIGNATURES OF HEAVY MINERALS [PDF]
Microscopic analysis and interpretation of the geochemical signatures of heavy minerals collected during stream sediment execution in the Kimpangu agglomeration and surrounding area have revealed the existence of four mineralogical families: ilmenites ...
