Abstract The thick mantle lithosphere beneath cratons consists of strongly reduced rocks that have reacted with oxidized melts. These low-silica, incipient melts are rich in CO 2 and H O react surrounding forming an enriched zone at the base lithosphere, which is source region for many diamonds. Here, we reproduce these reactions novel experiments oxidised, hydrous carbonate-rich reduced, depleted peridotite 5 GPa pressure. Results explain several key features sample kimberlites as products...
Ureilite meteorites are arguably our only large suite of samples from the mantle a dwarf planet and typically contain greater abundances diamond than any known rock. Some also lonsdaleite, which may be harder diamond. Here, we use electron microscopy to map relative distribution coexisting diamond, graphite in ureilites. These maps show that lonsdaleite tends occur as polycrystalline grains, sometimes with distinctive fold morphologies, partially replaced by + rims cross-cutting veins....
Long-lived accretionary orogens like the Tasmanides of eastern Australia have typically undergone a series compressional and extensional episodes with multiple magmatic hydrothermal events that shape its rheological, compositional metallogenic character. In state Victoria, Western Lachlan Orogen (WLO) is home to one world’s largest gold provinces. Multi-million-ounce orogenic deposits Ordovician age occur in Bendigo Stawell zones, whilst oldest known mineralisation Melbourne Zone...
Mammalian spermatocytes harbour small RNAs that are mostly degradation products of abundant non-coding RNAs, including ribosomal RNA-derived (rsRNAs) and tRNA-derived (tDRs). Notably, tDRs have been implicated in inheriting paternally acquired traits rodents. Direct experimental proof for this notion comes from manipulating fertilized murine oocytes through microinjection RNA preparations, resulting metabolic changes measurable the offspring. How these transmitted could function...
Peridotite xenoliths from the Nógrád–Gömör Volcanic Field (NGVF) record geochemical evolution of subcontinental lithospheric mantle beneath northern margin Pannonian Basin. This study is focused on spinel lherzolites and presents petrography, major trace element geochemistry for 51 selected all xenolith-bearing localities NGVF. The consist olivine, orthopyroxene, clinopyroxene ± amphibole. No correlations between modal composition textures were recognized; however, reveals several processes,...
Incorporation of hydrogen as structural hydroxyl (commonly referred to water) in nominally anhydrous mantle minerals is known for the 'hydrolytic weakening' effect, which decreases strength and electrical resistivity rock. Recent models have provided means calculating rheological properties from geochemical data upper xenoliths. In Carpathian-Pannonian region, xenoliths can be found on surface at five locations, both marginal central regions basin system. this study we present a...
