The Renard kimberlites (52°48’26N, 72°14’52W: Quebec, Canada) are typical for primary diamond deposits: being located within Archean basement (Superior craton). Pb-Pb isotope data of clinopyroxenes also suggests an Archean age (~2.7Ga) for the subcratonic lithospheric mantle (SCLM). The Carolina...

Mantle composition, age and geotherm beneath the Darby kimberlite field, west central Rae Craton
DownloadFall 2018
The Rae Craton, northern Canada, contains several diamondiferous kimberlite fields that have been a focus of episodic diamond exploration. Relatively little is known about the deep mantle lithosphere underpinning the architecturally complex crust. Previous studies in the region have focused on...

The petrography and mineral chemistry of melt-intruded mantle xenoliths from the Chidliak kimberlite field, Baffin Island, Canada
DownloadFall 2021
The nature of kimberlitic melts at mantle depths and their interaction with mantle wall-rocks is poorly constrained. This is due to the scarcity of mantle xenoliths and xenocrysts that have preserved this interaction without disaggregating during their transport to Earth’s surface. This thesis...
