The nature of PGE-Re (PGE Pt, Pd, Os, Ir, Ru) behavior in subcontinental lithospheric mantle was investigated using new, high precision PGE-Re abundance measurements and previously published Re-Os isotopic analyses of peridotite xenoliths from the Sierra Nevada and Mojave Province, California. Ru/Ir ratios and Ir concentrations are constant over a wide range in S content and major-element ferti...

The morphology of resorbed diamond crystals is a valuable source information on the composition and ascent rate kimberlite magmas, as well possible redox conditions in protolith. Previously, resorption was thoroughly investigated at P–T–fO2 parameters magma ascent. In this study, we using unaltered group I model carbonatite that are typical peridotite magmas subcontinental lithospheric mantle. ...

Article history: Received 29 March 2017 Accepted 27 July 2017 Available online 04 August 2017 Subduction and collision are the key processes triggering geochemical refertilization of the lithospheric mantle beneath cratons. However, the way that the subducted plate influences the cratonic lithospheric mantle remains unclear. Here, in-situ major and trace-element and Sr isotopic compositions of ...
