Kimberlites are volcanic rocks enriched in CO2 and H2O and derive from the deepest-
sourced melts (up to 300 km) that reach Earth's surface. The mantle processes that generate …

The concentration and distribution of water in the Earth has influenced its evolution
throughout its history. Even at the trace levels contained in the planet's deep interior (mantle …

Earth's carbon, derived from planetesimals in the 1 AU region during accretion of the Solar
System, still retains similarities to carbon found in meteorites (Marty et al. 2013) even after …

Abstract Uplift of the Tibetan Plateau is thought to be one of the most important orogenic and
climate forcing events of the Cenozoic Era, associated with geodynamic changes related to …

Kimberlites are volatile-rich, occasionally diamond-bearing magmas that have erupted
explosively at Earth's surface in the geologic past,–. These enigmatic magmas, originating …

Carbonatites are formed from volatile-rich melts, commonly associated with a characteristic
hydrothermal footprint. However, studies of their fluid inclusions are relatively scarce and …

Kimberlites are ultrabasic, Si-undersaturated, low Al, low Na rocks rich in CO2 and H2O. The
distinctive geochemical character of kimberlite is strongly influenced by the nature of the …

Diamond is an exciting material with many outstanding properties; see, for example Field JE
(ed) 1979 The Properties of Diamond (London: Academic) and Field JE (ed) 1992 The …

Kimberlite and carbonatite magmas that intrude cratonic lithosphere are among the deepest
probes of the terrestrial carbon cycle. Their co-existence on thick continental shields is …

Kimberlite magmas are of economic and scientific importance because they represent the
major host to diamonds and are probably the deepest magmas from continental regions. In …
