“…We consider both these interpretations problematic because (1) the distribution of burbankite and other chadacrysts in the host crystal is not controlled crystallographically, nor confined to cleavage planes or fractures (see the next section); (2) strontianite (SrCO 3 ), which is the most common product of calcite breakdown, does not occur in these parageneses; (3) analogous inclusions are found in minerals, which cannot possibly exsolve carbonates (e.g., Fig. 4e, f); (4) bulk analyses of dolomite grains containing burbankite inclusions give up to several thousand ppm Na and REE, which cannot be realistically a cc om m o da t e d i n t h e st r u c t u r e o f t h i s m i n e r a l (Chakhmouradian et al 2015b); and (5) subsolidus relations in the system CaCO 3 -MgCO 3 (see Phase and compositional relations of significance to rock-forming carbonates in carbonatites) suggest that exsolution of dolomite from calcite intruded by calcite carbonatite, Carb Lake; primary dolomite (Dol1) contains 7.5-11.2 wt.% FeO, 0.7-1.9 wt.% MnO, 0.1-0.3 wt.% SrO, and is associated with potassic-fluoro-magnesio-arfvedsonite (Amp1); at the contact with calcite, Dol1 is mantled by Fe-Mn-Sr-poor dolomite Dol2 (2.3-6.6, 0.3-0.8, 0-0.1 wt.% respective oxides), and Amp1 by fluororichterite (Amp2). f Magnetite-phlogopite-calcite carbonatite intersected by a veinlet of richterite (Rct)-dolomite carbonatite, Aley; both calcite and dolomite contain high levels of Sr, Ba, REE and are interpreted as magmatic (note also the sharp contacts between the two rocks and a flow pattern in the veinlet) should be much more common than vice versa, whereas calcite with ovoid inclusions of dolomite is not as abundant as poikilitic dolomite.…”
