Appreciation of the rheological properties of kimberlite magmas relies on research into their temperatures and compositions. Understanding of the alkali and volatile element budget is central to these studies, but is hampered by contaminated and altered compositions of kimberlites worldwide. Kimberlites of the diamondiferous Udachnaya-East pipe (Siberia) are exceptionally fresh, with low H2O (<0.5 wt%), but high CO2 (up to 14 wt%), Cl (up to 6 wt%), and alkalies ( up to 6 wt% Na2O and 2.0 wt% K2O). After crystallization of olivine the kimberlite melt evolved towards essentially carbonate-chloride compositions. The groundmass assemblage and compositions of the Udachnaya-East kimberlite resemble modern halogen-rich natrocarbonatite lavas from the Oldoinyo Lengai volcano. Rheological measurements on the Oldoinyo Lengai lavas can be used to constrain properties of the kimberlite magma." name="eprints.abstract" /> <meta content="2007-05-10" name="eprints.date" /> <meta content="published" name="eprints.date_type" /> <meta content="Geophysical Research Letters" name="eprints.publication" /> <meta content="34" name="eprints.volume" /> <meta content="9" name="eprints.number" /> <meta content="L09316" name="eprints.pagerange" /> <meta content="10.1029/2007GL029389" name="eprints.id_number" /> <meta content="TRUE" name="eprints.refereed" /> <meta content="0094-8276" name="eprints.issn" /> <meta content="http://dx.doi.org/10.1029/2007GL029389" name="eprints.official_url" /> <meta content="Bogatikov, O.

Appreciation of the rheological properties of kimberlite magmas relies on research into their temperatures and compositions. Understanding of the alkali and volatile element budget is central to these studies, but is hampered by contaminated and altered compositions of kimberlites worldwide. Kimberlites of the diamondiferous Udachnaya-East pipe (Siberia) are exceptionally fresh, with low H2O (<0.5 wt%), but high CO2 (up to 14 wt%), Cl (up to 6 wt%), and alkalies ( up to 6 wt% Na2O and 2.0 wt% K2O). After crystallization of olivine the kimberlite melt evolved towards essentially carbonate-chloride compositions. The groundmass assemblage and compositions of the Udachnaya-East kimberlite resemble modern halogen-rich natrocarbonatite lavas from the Oldoinyo Lengai volcano. Rheological measurements on the Oldoinyo Lengai lavas can be used to constrain properties of the kimberlite magma.</p></div><table style="margin-bottom: 1em" border="0" cellpadding="3" class="not_ep_block"><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Item Type:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Article</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Additional Information:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Copyright 2007 American Geophysical Union.</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Keywords:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">oldoinyo-lengai, alkali chlorides, melt inclusions, mantle fluid, kimberlite, natrocarbonatite, evolution, diamond, transport, eruption, rheological properties</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Subjects:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/260200.html">260000 Earth Sciences > 260200 Geophysics</a><br /><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/260300.html">260000 Earth Sciences > 260300 Geochemistry</a><br /><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/260100.html">260000 Earth Sciences > 260100 Geology</a></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Collections:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">UNSPECIFIED</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ID Code:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">2450</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited By:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><span class="ep_name_citation"><span class="person_name">Prof Vadim Kamenetsky</span></span></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited On:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">14 Nov 2007 13:53</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Last Modified:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">17 Jan 2008 13:03</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ePrint Statistics:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a target="ePrintStats" href="/es/index.php?action=show_detail_eprint;id=2450;">View statistics for this ePrint</a></td></tr></table><p align="right">Repository Staff Only: <a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/cgi/users/home?screen=EPrint::View&eprintid=2450">item control page</a></p> </td></tr></table> </div> <!-- InstanceEndEditable --></td> </tr> <tr> <td><!-- #BeginLibraryItem "/Library/footer_eprints.lbi" --> <table width="795" border="0" align="left" cellpadding="0" class="footer"> <tr valign="top"> <td colspan="2"><div align="center"><a href="http://www.utas.edu.au">UTAS home</a> | <a href="http://www.utas.edu.au/library/">Library home</a> | <a href="/">ePrints home</a> | <a href="/contact.html">contact</a> | <a href="/information.html">about</a> | <a href="/view/">browse</a> | <a href="/perl/search/simple">search</a> | <a href="/perl/register">register</a> | <a href="/perl/users/home">user area</a> | <a href="/help/">help</a></div><br /></td> </tr> <tr><td colspan="2"><p><img src="/images/eprints/footerline.gif" width="100%" height="4" /></p></td></tr> <tr valign="top"> <td width="68%" class="footer">Authorised by the University Librarian<br /> © University of Tasmania ABN 30 764 374 782<br /> <a href="http://www.utas.edu.au/cricos/">CRICOS Provider Code 00586B</a> | <a href="http://www.utas.edu.au/copyright/copyright_disclaimers.html">Copyright & Disclaimers</a> | <a href="http://www.utas.edu.au/accessibility/index.html">Accessibility</a> | <a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/feedback/">Site Feedback</a> </td> <td width="32%"><div align="right"> <p align="right" class="NoPrint"><a href="http://www.utas.edu.au/"><img src="http://www.utas.edu.au/shared/logos/unioftasstrip.gif" alt="University of Tasmania Home Page" width="260" height="16" border="0" align="right" /></a></p> <p align="right" class="NoPrint"><a href="http://www.utas.edu.au/"><br /> </a></p> </div></td> </tr> <tr valign="top"> <td><p> </p></td> <td><div align="right"><span class="NoPrint"><a href="http://www.eprints.org/software/"><img src="/images/eprintslogo.gif" alt="ePrints logo" width="77" height="29" border="0" align="bottom" /></a></span></div></td> </tr> </table> <!-- #EndLibraryItem --> <div align="center"></div></td> </tr> </table> </body> </html>
