Xenoliths in the alkali basalts of Makhtesh Ramon of Desert Negev (Israel) as indicators of mantle metasomatosis and magma generation

open access: yesЛитосфера, 2016
Xenoliths in the Early Cretaceous alkali basalts of Makhtesh Ramon basin (southern Israel) are represented by essentially olivine rocks: dunite (usually including clinopyroxen) - 5% of the total amount, lherzolite - 21%, wehrlite - 28%, clinopyroxenite -

The Relationship Between Kimberlitic Magmatism and Electrical Conductivity Anomalies in the Mantle

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2022
Kimberlites are igneous rocks whose formation remains enigmatic due to their severely altered nature, highly variable compositions and rapid ascent through the lithosphere.

New Magnetite Reference Material for SIMS δ18O Measurements and a Study of Precision and Accuracy Due to Crystal Orientation Effects

open access: yesGeostandards and Geoanalytical Research, EarlyView.
Key Points A new magnetite reference material (PF21mt) is available for δ18O measurements by SIMS. Reproducibility of measurement results in two laboratories suggest orientation bias of ±2‰ (2s) at 20 keV. Repeatability improves to ±1‰ (2s) when using a 13 keV protocol, suggesting reduced orientation bias. In situ isotope ratio measurements provide the

Metasomatites of medium and mafic composition from Nyaschevo massif (Ilmeny Mauntains, South Urals)

open access: yesЛитосфера, 2015
The results of the study of mediosiliceous and mafic metasomatites located in ultramafic and mafic rocks Nyaschevo massif presents in the paper. The texthural and structural features of these rocks allow to attribute them to tectonites - protomylonites and

Mineralogical evolution of the northern Bossoroca ophiolite, São Gabriel terrane

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Geology, 2020
Mineralogical evolution of ophiolites is significant to understand paleo-oceanic crust and mantle requiring multi-proxy techniques to identify steps in the processes. We studied the Bossoroca ophiolite from the southern Brasiliano Orogen, a prime example

Ti-Nb Mineralization of Late Carbonatites and Role of Fluids in Its Formation: Petyayan-Vara Rare-Earth Carbonatites (Vuoriyarvi Massif, Russia)

open access: yesGeosciences, 2018
This article is devoted to the geology of titanium-rich varieties of the Petyayan-Vara rare-earth dolomitic carbonatites in Vuoriyarvi, Northwest Russia. Analogues of these varieties are present in many carbonatite complexes. The aim of this study was to

Thallium Isotopes Reveal Brine Activity During Carbonatite Magmatism

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021
Carbonatite volcanism remains poorly understood compared to silicic volcanism due to the scarcity of carbonatite volcanoes worldwide and because volcanic H2O and CO2—major components in carbonatite volcanic systems—are not well preserved in the rock ...

AFRP20: New P‐Wavespeed Model for the African Mantle Reveals Two Whole‐Mantle Plumes Below East Africa and Neoproterozoic Modification of the Tanzania Craton

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021
Africa's Cenozoic tectonism is often attributed to mantle plumes, particularly below East Africa, but their morphology, number, location, and impact on the African lithosphere are debated.

Differential Craton Destruction Controlled by Fossil Structures in the Central North China Craton

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Craton evolution plays a fundamental role in stabilizing the continental lithosphere and the long‐term evolution of Earth's surface environment. The Shanxi Rift Zone (SRZ) within the North China Craton marks an ongoing craton destruction. Detailed lithospheric structure is essential to explain craton destruction.
