Evidence of Enriched, Hadean Mantle Reservoir from 4.2-4.0 Ga zircon xenocrysts from Paleoarchean TTGs of the Singhbhum Craton, Eastern India [PDF]
Sensitive High-Resolution Ion Microprobe (SHRIMP) U-Pb analyses of zircons from Paleoarchean (~3.4 Ga) tonalite-gneiss called the Older Metamorphic Tonalitic Gneiss (OMTG) from the Champua area of the Singhbhum Craton, India, reveal 4.24-4.03 Ga ...

Retention of radiation damage in zircon xenocrysts from kimberlites, Northern Yakutia [PDF]
We have studied zircon xenocrysts from Mesozoic kimberlites from the Kuoika and Ary-Mastakh fields in Northern Yakutia. Zircon xenocrysts are assumed to originate from crustal rocks. Our SHRIMP (Sensitive High mass Resolution Ion MicroProbe) analyses yielded predominantly concordant U-Th-Pb ages (up to ~. 3570.

Transport, survival and modification of xenoliths and xenocrysts from source to surface [PDF]
Abstract A wide variety of magmas entrain, transport and erupt mantle material in the form of xenoliths and xenocrysts. The host magmas are often low viscosity in nature and range from basalt to more esoteric compositions such as kimberlite, nephelinite and basanite. Here we focus on kimberlite magmas which are particularly successful at transporting

Mantle metasomatism refers to the interaction between mantle melt, fluid, and mantle rock. It not only affects the physical and chemical properties of the lithospheric mantle but also plays an important role in the process of metal and gem mineralization.

Composition and spectroscopy of olivine xenocrysts from the Hawaiian tholeiitic basalts
Tholeiitic basalts of the Hawaiian Mauna Loa and Kīlauea volcanoes (USA) contain olivine xenocrysts with chromespinelide inclusions. Their chemical composition and spectroscopic properties were investigated and compared with olivine of another ...

New Minerals from Inclusions in Corundum Xenocrysts from Mt. Carmel, Israel: Magnéliite, Ziroite, Sassite, Mizraite-(Ce) and Yeite. [PDF]
Our nanomineralogical investigation of melt inclusions in corundum xenocrysts from the Mt. Carmel area, Israel has revealed seven IMA-approved new minerals since 2021. We report here four new oxide minerals and one new alloy mineral. Magnéliite (Ti3+2Ti4+
