Thermobarometry of mantle-derived garnets and pyroxenes of Kola region (NW Russia): Lithosphere composition, thermal regime and diamond prospectivity

Thermobarometry of mantle-derived garnets and pyroxenes of Kola region (NW Russia): Lithosphere composition, thermal regime and diamond prospectivity

More than 700 pyrope, chrome diopside and chromite grains recovered from Quaternary sediments of the Kola craton, and from the Ermakovsky kimberlite in the Terskii Coast field were analyzed in order to determine their P-T parameters. Ni-thermometry on pyropes from SE Kola gives a range of temperatur...
