Diamonds, dunites, and metasomatic rocks formed by melt/rock reaction in craton roots
Reactions of depleted, reduced peridotite with oxidised volatile-rich melts can explain several contentious rock assemblages sampled by kimberlites from the metasomatised zone at the base of the lithosphere, according to high pressure laboratory ...

Bullen's parameter as a seismic observable for spin crossovers in the lower mantle [PDF]
Elastic anomalies produced by the spin crossover in ferropericlase have been documented by both first principles calculations and high pressure-temperature experiments. The predicted signature of this spin crossover in the lower mantle is, however, subtle and difficult to geophysically observe within the mantle.

Lithological structure of the Galápagos Plume
We have measured Ni, Ca, and Mn in olivine phenocrysts from volcanoes in the Galápagos Archipelago to infer the mantle source lithologies. Results show that peridotite is the dominant source lithology for Fernandina, Floreana, Genovesa, Wolf Island, and ...

The investigated Mt. Zrinska Gora amphibolites are a part of the metamorphic sole of the Banovina ophiolite complex. Mineral composition and other petrographic characteristics of amphibolites and adjacent peridotite were investigated by polarised ...

Geodynamic Information in Peridotite Petrology [PDF]
Systematic differences are observed in the petrology and major element geochemistry of natural peridotite samples from the sea floor near oceanic ridges and subduction zones, the mantle section of ophiolites, massif peridotites, and xenoliths of cratonic mantle in kimberlite.

The role of volatiles in reactive melt transport in the asthenosphere [PDF]
Experimental studies of mantle petrology find that small concentrations of water and carbon dioxide have a large effect on the solidus temperature and distribution of melting in the upper mantle. However, it has remained unclear what effect small fractions of deep, volatile-rich melts have on melt transport and reactive melting in the shallow ...
