Estimation of the refertilization grade of lithosphere roots by the chemical composition of garnets from Siberian kimberlites

More Information
Summary:Udachnaya pipe is a unique geological object presenting quite a continuous section of the continental lithosphere from its roots to the upper crust level. Xenoliths and xenocrysts of deep seated rocks, transferred by kimberlites of this pipe, are fragments of ancient depleted rocks of the lithosphere mantle and testify to the superposed processes that occurred at the time of the kimberlite body formation. All these facts allow one to consider Udachnaya pipe as a model for studies of mantle sections in the regions of less informative kimberlites.
