High Temperature Friction and Strength of Felsite and Basalt: Implications for Supercritical EGS at Krafla, Iceland

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract One promising potential site for extracting supercritical geothermal fluids is the Krafla volcano, Iceland, into which a borehole was drilled very close to a shallow rhyolite magma chamber at about 2 km depth. Besides the technical challenge to drill in this setting, the extreme temperature conditions of T > 900°C close to the magma body may ...

Active Plume, Abandoned Ridge, or Ancient Slab? olivine‐Hosted Melt Inclusions Record the Mantle Melting Conditions Below the East Pacific Revillagigedo Archipelago, Mexico

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract The voluminous active volcanoes of the Revillagigedo Islands of Socorro and San Benedicto in the east Pacific Ocean exhibit hotspot geochemistry. However, the presence of a deep mantle plume has not been seismologically confirmed. Instead, a fossil subducted slab is identified in the lower mantle underneath the volcanoes. Moreover, the islands

Interaction of mantle convection with the lithosphere and the origin of kimberlites

Геофизический журнал, 2013
Thermobarometry of xenolites/xenocrysts from 39 kimberlites of Eurasia, Africa, and North America demonstrates that the deepest xenolites, as well as all the other, are exhumed from the depleted lithosphere implying in agreement with petrologic and ...

Episodic Rifting of a Large Igneous Province Concentrated Along a Microcontinent Boundary

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Many large igneous provinces (LIPs) comprise once contiguous magmatic products that are now fragmented across multiple tectonic plates. Emplacement of these voluminous magmatic products is commonly coeval with, or shortly followed by, fragmentation into constituent domains.

Xenolith Constraints on the Mantle Potential Temperature and Thickness of Cratonic Roots Through Time

Geophysical Research Letters
The temperature of the convecting mantle and thickness of the lithosphere control many of Earth's processes. However, there is disagreement regarding the evolution of these quantities through time.

Revealing the Magmatic Impulse Emplacement and Evolution Path of Kimberlite in Southern Liaoning through Mineralogical Characteristics of the Phlogopite Zone

Applied Sciences
Phlogopite is a crucial indicator for effectively constraining the magmatic evolution and emplacement mechanism of kimberlite. In this study, samples were collected from the No. 110 kimberlite pipe within diamond belt I and the No.

Orthopyroxene-enrichment in the lherzolite-websterite xenolith suite from Paleogene alkali basalts of the Poiana Ruscă Mountains (Romania)

Geologica Carpathica, 2015
In this paper we present the petrography and geochemistry of a recently collected lherzolite-websterite xenolith series and of clinopyroxene xenocrysts, hosted in Upper Cretaceous–Paleogene basanites of Poiana Ruscă (Romania), whose xenoliths show ...

Application of single-grain OSL to date quartz xenocrysts within a basalt flow, San Francisco volcanic field, northern Arizona, USA

, 2012
Previous age estimates for SP Crater in the SanFrancisco volcanicfield in northern Arizona, USA, suggested it erupted 70 ka; however its non-weathered geomorphic character places it as one of the youngest volcanic vents in the region.

COMPLICATED THERMAL HISTORY OF THE LITHOSPHERIC MANTLE OF THE ANABAR REGION: RECONSTRUCTIONS BASED ON XENOCRYSTS FROM KIMBERLITES

Геодинамика и тектонофизика
The thermal history and thickness of the lithospheric mantlebeneath the kimberlite fields of the Eastern Anabar shield and adjacent territories of the Siberian craton were reconstructed based on the composition of clinopyroxene xenocrysts from the ...
