Title: Isotopic fractionation of oxygen and carbon in decomposed lower-mantle inclusions in diamond

Abstract

Two carbonatitic mineral assemblages, calcite + wollastonite and calcite + monticellite, which are encapsulated in two diamond grains from the Rio Soriso basin in the Juina area, Mato Grosso State, Brazil, were studied utilizing the NanoSIMS technique. The assemblages were formed as the result of the decomposition of the lower-mantle assemblage calcite + CaSi-perovskite + volatile during the course of the diamond ascent under pressure conditions from 15 to less than 0.8 GPa. The oxygen and carbon isotopic compositions of the studied minerals are inhomogeneous. They fractionated during the process of the decomposition of primary minerals to very varying values: δ¹⁸O from –3.3 to +15.4 ‰ SMOW and δ¹³C from –2.8 to +9.3 ‰ VPDB. As a result, these values significantly extend the mantle values for these elements in both isotopically-light and isotopically-heavy areas.

Infiltration metasomatism of the Allende coarse-grained calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions

Journal Article Krot, Alexander N. ; Petaev, Michail I. ; Nagashima, Kazuhide - Progress in Earth and Planetary Science

We report on the mineralogy, petrography, and O and Al-Mg isotopic systematics of secondary mineralization in the metasomatically altered igneous Ca,Al-rich inclusions (CAIs) [compact type A (CTA), B1, B2, forsterite-bearing B (FoB), and C] from the CV3 carbonaceous chondrite Allende. This alteration affected mainly melilite, and to a lesser degree anorthite, and resulted in the formation of a variety of secondary minerals, including adrianite, Al-diopside, andradite, anorthite, calcite, celsian, clintonite, corundum, dmisteinbergite, ferroan olivine, ferroan monticellite, ferroan Al-diopside, forsterite, grossular, heazlewoodite, hedenbergite, hutcheonite, kushiroite, margarite, monticellite, Na-melilite, nepheline, pentlandite, pyrrhotite, sodalite, spinel, tilleyite, wadalite, and wollastonite.

Petrogenetic grid for siliceous dolomites extended to mantle peridotite compositions and to conditions for magma generation

Journal Article Wyllie, P J ; Huang, W L - Am. Mineral.; (United States)

Decarbonation reactions in the system CaO--MgO-SiO/sub 2/--CO/sub 2/ involve calcite, dolomite, magnesite, and quartz, and the products enstatite, forsterite, diopside, and wollastonite, among others. Each decarbonation reaction terminates at an invariant point involving a liquid, CO/sub 2/ vapor, carbonate minerals, and one or more of the silicate minerals. Fusion curves for mantle mineral assemblages involving forsterite, orthopyroxene, and clinopyroxene in the presence of CO/sub 2/, extending from higher temperature regions, terminate at these same invariant points. The points are connected by a series of liquidus reactions involving the carbonates and mantle silicates, at temperatures generally lower than the silicate-CO/sub 2/more »« less
Geochemistry of precambrian carbonates. I. Archean hydrothermal systems

Journal Article Veizer, J ; Hoefs, J ; Ridler, R H ; ... - Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta; (USA)

Carbonate rocks from the Superior and Slave Provinces of Canada, Kaapvaal Craton of South Africa and the Pilbara Block of Australia, considered of hydrothermal origin from field criteria, have been characterized mineralogically, isotopically and chemically. In agreement with previous studies, the bulk chemical composition suggests that the carbonate rocks originated by massive carbonatization, silicification and K ({plus minus}Na) metasomatism of intermediate to ultramafic silicate precursors. The carbonate component itself defines two partially overlapping populations. The ferroan dolomite + breunnerite assemblage is confined mostly to shear zones, conduits and stockworks, while the calcite + ferroan dolomite (ankerite) {plus minus} siderite mineralmore »« less

Retrograde fluids in granulites: Stable isotope evidence of fluid migration

Journal Article Morrison, J ; Valley, J W - Journal of Geology; (United States)

Widespread retrograde alteration assemblages document the migration of mixed H{sub 2}O-CO{sub 2} fluids into granulite facies rocks in the Adirondack Mountains. Fluid migration is manifest by (1) veins and patchy intergrowths of chlorite {plus minus} sericite {plus minus} calcite, (2) small veins of calcite, many only identifiable by cathodoluminescence, and (3) high-density, CO{sub 2}-rich or mixed H{sub 2}O-CO{sub 2} fluid inclusions. The distinct and varied textural occurrences of the alteration minerals indicate that fluid-rock ratios were low and variable on a local scale. Stable isotope ratios of C, O, and S have been determined in retrograde minerals from samples ofmore »« less

The Nature and Origin of the REE Mineralization in the Wicheeda Carbonatite, British Columbia, Canada

Journal Article Trofanenko, J. ; Williams-Jones, A. E. ; Simandl, G. J. ; ... - Economic Geology

The Wicheeda carbonatite is a deformed plug or sill that hosts relatively high grade light rare earth elements (LREE) mineralization in the British Columbia alkaline province. It was emplaced within metasedimentary rocks belonging to the Kechika Group, which have been altered to potassic fenite near the intrusion and sodic fenite at greater distances from it. The intrusion comprises a ferroan dolomite carbonatite core, which passes gradationally outward into calcite carbonatite. The potentially economic REE mineralization is hosted by the dolomite carbonatite. We recognized three types of dolomite. Dolomite constitutes the bulk of the dolomite carbonatite, dolomite replaced dolomite near veinsmore »« less
