MINERAL COMPOSITION AND PT PARAMETERS OF CRYSTALLIZATION OF MANTLE ROCKS UNDER KIMBERLITE FIELDS OF THE ANABAR REGION

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2022
The composition of barophilic minerals from mantle xenoliths and Cpx from concentrates of the Kuranakh, Luchakan, Dyuken, and Ary-Mastakh fields of the Anabar region has been studied.

Convergent flow in a two-layer system and mountain building [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
With the purpose of modelling the process of mountain building, we investigate the evolution of the ridge produced by the convergent motion of a system consisting of two layers of liquids that differ in density and viscosity to simulate the crust and the

MATE: An Analysis Tool for the Interpretation of Magnetotelluric Models of the Mantle

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020
Interpretation of electrical conductivity anomalies observed in magnetotelluric models provides an important opportunity to understand the nature of the lithospheric mantle and its dynamics.

Numerical modeling of post-collisional carbonated alkaline magmatism: Variscan style Orogeny (the Ivrea Zone as natural laboratory)

open access: yesSolid Earth Sciences, 2020
The Ivrea Zone of northwest Italy exposes a section of the lower crust and lithospheric mantle deformed during the Variscan Orogeny, where a series of carbonated alkaline pipes was emplaced over a time span of ca.

Post-collisional Tertiary–Quaternary mafic alkalic magmatism in the Carpathian–Pannonian region: a review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Mafic alkalic volcanism was widespread in the Carpathian–Pannonian region (CPR) between 11 and 0.2 Ma. It followed the Miocene continental collision of the Alcapa and Tisia blocks with the European plate, as subduction-related calc-alkaline magmatism was

Ductile Deformation of the Lithospheric Mantle

open access: yesAnnual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences, 2023
The strength of lithospheric plates is a central component of plate tectonics, governed by brittle processes in the shallow portion of the plate and ductile behavior in the deeper portion. We review experimental constraints on ductile deformation of olivine, the main mineral in the upper mantle and thus the lithosphere.

Effective elastic thickness in the Central Andes. Correlation to orogenic deformation styles and lower crust high-gravity anomaly [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Global studies have assessed the importance of elastic thickness (Te) on orogenic evolution, showing that the style and nature of upper crustal shortening are influenced by the inherited lithospheric strength. Thus, pioneer works have identified that the

Brittle Structural Control and Fluid Progress of the Jinqingding Gold Deposit: Implications for Epizonal Gold Mineralization

open access: yesActa Geologica Sinica - English Edition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Jinqingding gold deposit in eastern Jiaodong is a significant gold mineralization within the Muping–Rushan metallogenic belt. This study integrates structural analysis and trace element geochemistry of sulphides to elucidate ore‐controlling mechanisms and metallogenic models.

The transition zone as a host for recycled volatiles: Evidence from nitrogen and carbon isotopes in ultra-deep diamonds from Monastery and Jagersfontein (South Africa) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Sublithospheric (ultra-deep) diamonds provide a unique window into the deepest parts of Earth's mantle, which otherwise remain inaccessible. Here, we report the first combined C- and N-isotopic data for diamonds from the Monastery and Jagersfontein ...

Enriched lithospheric mantle storage of the Earth's missing niobium: New insights from alkaline rocks with superchondritic Nb/Ta ratios

open access: yesGeosystems and Geoenvironment
Accessible silicate reservoirs on Earth (i.e., the depleted mantle and continental crust) are depleted in Nb relative to chondrites, as expressed by their subchondritic Nb/Ta ratios.
