Garnet Peridotite Xenoliths from the Vitim Volcanic Field, Baikal Region: the Nature of the Garnet--Spinel Peridotite Transition Zone in the Continental Mantle

Li isotope fractionation in peridotites and mafic melts

“…We have studied a depleted San Carlos peridotite with $5% clinopyroxene. By comparison to literature data, this sample should be significantly influenced by cryptic metasomatism, although we Reference data taken from Ionov et al (1993), Ionov (2004, Ionov et al (2005b), Stosch et al (1986) and Press et al (1986). Olivine compositions were measured as part of this study (see Table 1 caption for details on electron probe measurements) except for 4230-16 and Mo-Z-1, for which literature data are reported in italics.…”

Widespread refertilization of cratonic and circum-cratonic lithospheric mantle

“…Actually, refertilization of ancient SCLM is an asthenospherization of lower parts of the SCLM, which may be controlled by the topography of the lithosphere base (Foley, 2008). This process resulted in a great change of geochemical composition and rejuvenation of the Archean SCLM (Chesley et al, 1999;Dawson, 2002;Beyer et al, 2006;Griffin et al, 2009;Zhang et al, 2009a (Press et al, 1986;Ionov et al, 1993aIonov et al, , 2005aIonov et al, , 2006aPearson et al, 1995b); Australian peridotites (Frey and Green, 1974;Canil et al, 1994;McBride et al, 1996;Handler et al, 1997Handler et al, , 2005Alard et al, 2002); European peridotites (Reisberg and Lorand, 1995;Becker, 1996;Meisel et al, 1997Meisel et al, , 2001Becker et al, 2001;Alard et al, 2002;Beyer et al, 2004Beyer et al, , 2006Ackerman et al, 2007;Tessalina et al, 2007;van Acken et al, 2008;Harvey et al, 2010); American peridotites (Carlson and Irving, 1994;Lee et al, 2000;Peslier et al, 2000aPeslier et al, , 2002Meisel et al, 2001;Irvine et al, 2003;Carlson et al, , 2007; African peridotites (Meisel et al, 2001;Simon et al, 2003Simon et al, , 200...…”
