Oxide minerals of Kaavi kimberlites (Finland) by N. S. Azarova, A. V. Bovkun, V. K. Garanin, D. A. Varlamov, H. L. Hong

“…The mineralogical and petrogeochemical features of the Neoproterozoic kimberlite rocks of the Lahtojoki and Niilonsuo pipes of the Kaavi cluster (Kaavi-Kuopio, Finland) have been studied, differences in their petrogeochemical composition, quantitative and chemical composition of oxide minerals of deep (mantle) and kimberlite genesis have been revealed. …”

Mantle transect of the Karelian Craton from margin to core based on P-T data from garnet and clinopyroxene xenocrysts in kimberlites by M. Lehtonen, H. O'Brien

“…The mantle stratigraphy of the craton core, compared to the craton edge, shows less compositional variation, with only two distinguishable horizons corresponding generally to the two deepest layers at Kaavi-Kuopio. Additionally, based on the Mg# of pyropes, the level of depletion of peridotites comprising the mantle lithosphere in the central craton is significantly higher than at the craton edge represented by Kaavi-Kuopio. …”

Geodynamic and Isotopic Constraints on the Genesis of Kimberlites, Lamproites and Related Magmas From the Finnish Segment of the Karelian Craton by Hayden Dalton, Andrea Giuliani, Janet Hergt, David Phillips, Hugh O’Brien, Maxim D. Ballmer, Roland Maas, Jon Woodhead

“…By contrast, ∼620–585 Ma Kaavi‐Kuopio kimberlites show limited range in εNd(i) and 87Sr/86Sr(i) but have remarkably heterogeneous εHf(i) (+6.5 to −6.3) with a temporal trend toward lower εHf(i) values. …”
