New evidence for upper Permian crustal growth below Eifel, Germany, from mafic granulite xenoliths [PDF]
European Journal of Mineralogy, 2021 Granulite xenoliths from the Quaternary West Eifel Volcanic Field in Germany record evidence of magmatism in the lower crust at the end of the Permian. The xenoliths sampled two distinct bodies: an older intrusion (ca.

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1989 Mantle Xenoliths, edited by Peter H. Nixon, provides a valuable summary of both the state of our knowledge of mantle xenoliths and the current interpretations of them. It is generally well edited and surprisingly well integrated for a large, multiauthored volume.Useful integrating features include introductory sections (by Nixon) an d a summary chapter

Transport and eruption of mantle xenoliths creates a lagging problem
Communications Earth & Environment, 2023 Mantle-derived xenoliths entrained by low viscosity magmas indicate transport through great thicknesses of orogenic (≲50-80 km) and cratonic ( $$\lesssim$$ ≲ 20 km) mantle lithosphere.
