Abstract:This work presents a geochemical study of a set of garnets, selected by their colors, from the CamafucaCamazambo kimberlite, located on northeast Angola. Mantle-derived garnets were classifi ed according to the scheme proposed by Grütter et al. (2004) and belong to the G1, G4, G9 and G10 groups.Both sub-calcic (G10) and Ca-saturated (G9) garnets, typical, respectively, of harzburgites and lherzolites, were identifi ed. The solubility limit of knorringite molecule in G10D garnets suggests they have crystallized… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
