Features of apatite in kimberlite from Ekati Diamond Mine and Snap Lake: modelling kimberlite composition
(2017-12-14)Magmatic volatiles (H2O, CO2, F, Cl) and the timing of fluid exsolution have implications for kimberlite melt composition, eruption and preservation of diamonds. Apatite, Ca5(PO4)3(F,Cl,OH), is a common groundmass mineral ... -
Micro-morphology and Resorption features of Diamonds from Snap Lake and Ekati Kimberlites (Canada) as an Indicator of Kimberlite Emplacement Conditions
(2017-09-01)Volatiles play a significant role in the emplacement mode and the resulting geology of kimberlites, however, the volatile composition and concentrations are poorly constrained. Previous experimental studies have suggested ...
