Improving the use of eclogitic garnet as a diamond indicator mineral, and constraining the origin of eclogites in the subcontinental lithospheric mantle
DownloadSpring 2020
Diamond occurs in the subcontinental lithospheric mantle (SCLM) and is transported to the surface by kimberlite-lamproite volcanism and other deeply-derived volcanic rocks. In the SCLM diamond is often hosted by peridotitic or eclogitic substrates. Even when it occurs in economic abundances in a...

Kimberlite Indicator Minerals from the Central Mackenzie Valley, Northwest Territories, Canada: A Reconnaissance Geochemistry Survey
DownloadFall 2018
The Central Mackenzie Valley (CMV) area of Northwest Territories is underlain by Precambrian basement belonging to the North American Craton. The potential of this area to host kimberlitic diamond deposits is relatively high judging from the seismologically-defined lithospheric thickness, the age...
