We have investigated a suite of natural diamonds from the\u0000kimberlite pipe of the Changma Kimberlite Belt, Mengyin County, Shandong\u0000Province, China, with the aim of constraining pressures and temperatures of\u0000formation. Here we report the non-destructive investigation of an olivine\u0000inclusion still entrapped within a lithospheric diamond by single-crystal\u0000X-ray diffraction. We were able to refine anisotropically its crystal\u0000structure to R1= 1.42 % using ionized scattering curves; this\u0000allows estimation of the composition of the olivine as\u0000Mg1.82Fe0.18SiO4. This composition corresponds to a\u0000calculated unit-cell volume equal to V= 292.70 Å3 at room\u0000temperature and pressure. We have validated the above-calculated composition\u0000and unit-cell volume by releasing the inclusion from the diamond host,\u0000resulting in a consistent composition calculated using non-destructive\u0000methods of Mg1.84Fe0.16SiO4 and V= 292.80 ± 0.07 Å3. Considering that the unit-cell volume of the olivine still\u0000inside its diamond host is V= 289.7 ± 0.2 Å3, we calculated\u0000a residual pressure Pinc= 1.4 ± 0.1 GPa with respect to the\u0000released crystal and Pinc= 1.3 ± 0.2 GPa with respect to the\u0000volume calculated from the “composition” indirectly retrieved by the\u0000structure refinement under ambient conditions. The two values of Pinc\u0000overlap within experimental uncertainty. We performed Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analysis on the\u0000diamond host in order to calculate its mantle residence temperature,\u0000Tres, which resulted in a value of 1189 ∘C (for an assumed\u0000diamond age of 3 Ga) and 1218 ∘C (for an age of 1 Ga), with an\u0000average Tres equal to 1204 ± 15 ∘C. Using the most up-to-date pressure–volume–temperature equations of state for\u0000olivine and diamond, the residual pressure Pinc= 1.4 ± 0.1 GPa\u0000and average residence temperature of the diamond host Tres= 1204 ∘C, we retrieved a pressure of entrapment Ptrap= 6.3 ± 0.4 GPa.

This entrapment pressure corresponds to\u0000depths of about 190 ± 12 km. These results demonstrate that for\u0000high-quality crystal structure data measured on inclusions still trapped\u0000within diamond hosts, even a non-destructive approach can be used to\u0000calculate the depth of formation of diamond–olivine pairs. In terms of\u0000geological implications, the results from this work show that Changma\u0000diamonds formed under a conductive geotherm lying between 35 and 40 mW m−2, at a depth of about 190 km.

In this paper, we present a new design for a 1 atm gas-mixing furnace using the gas mixture CO–CO2–SO2. This furnace can simulate disequilibrium processes such as magmatic and volcanic degassing.

The furnace can sustain temperatures of up to 1650 ∘C and has a hot zone that spans 200 mm vertically, where the hotspot is determined to be ∼ 32 mm below the midpoint of the furnace enclosure. The four mass flow controllers are individually calibrated and accurate to within 0.8 % of the specified value. The fO2 is accurately reproduced in the furnace within ±0.002 log units, as calibrated by the Fe–FeO reaction across the iron–wüstite (IW) buffer at 1300 ∘C. The furnace can reliably simulate dynamic conditions, where the fO2 can be modulated at a maximum rate of 2.0 log units min−1 by varying the gas mixture. A delay of 40 s is observed to attain the fO2 calculated from the gas mixture, at the hotspot. A series of safety measures to protect the user from exposure to the toxic gases are detailed. In our experiments, the furnace is used to determine sulfur isotope fractionation factors among melt, sulfide, and the gas phase, within a magmatic context, using either crystals of olivine or silica glass tubes.

To provide a tool for fast estimation of the Fe3+\u0000content in Ca2(Al, Fe3+)3Si3O12(OH) epidote grains,\u0000including in thin sections and crude-rock samples, we applied Raman\u0000spectroscopy to 33 areas from 15 natural samples with Fe3+ ranging from\u00000.22 to 1.13 atoms per formula unit (apfu), the chemistry of which was\u0000independently determined by wavelength-dispersive electron microprobe\u0000analysis (WD-EPMA). The Raman spectra were collected from the very areas\u0000subjected to WD-EPMA. We have analysed both the OH-stretching region\u0000(3215–3615 cm−1) and the spectral range generated by the framework\u0000vibrations (15–1215 cm−1). Similarly to the IR spectra, the Raman peaks\u0000in the OH-stretching region shift toward higher wavenumbers with increasing\u0000Fe. However, the quantification of Fe3+ based on OH-stretching Raman\u0000peaks can be hindered by the multicomponent overlapping and significant\u0000intensity variations with the crystal orientation. Among the Raman signals\u0000generated by framework vibrations, the position of four peaks (near 250,\u0000570, 600, and 1090 cm−1) exhibit a steady linear regression with the\u0000increase in Fe content (in apfu). However, the peak near 250 cm−1\u0000attributed to MO6 vibrations also depends on the crystal orientation\u0000and therefore is not always well resolved, which worsens the accuracy in\u0000Fe-content determination based on its position. The peaks near 570, 600, and\u00001090 cm−1 arise from Si2O7 vibrational modes, and although\u0000their intensities also vary with the crystal orientation, all three signals\u0000are well resolved in a random orientation. However, among the three\u0000Si2O7-related signals, the 570 cm−1 peak is the sharpest\u0000(peak width <10 cm−1) and is easily recognized as a separate\u0000peak. Hence, we propose to use the position of this peak as a highly\u0000reliable parameter to estimate the Fe content, via the linear trend given as\u0000ω570=577.1(3)-12.7(4)x, where ω is the wavenumber\u0000(cm−1) and x is Fe content (apfu), with accuracy ± 0.04\u0000Fe3+ apfu. The peaks near 600 and 1090 cm−1 may be complementarily\u0000used for the Fe estimate, based on the following relations: ω600=611.6(2)-13.8(4)x and ω1090=1098.8(3)-13.5(5)x. Analyses of\u0000the effect of Sr as a substitution for Ca and Cr at the octahedral sites\u0000indicate that contents of Sr <0.12 apfu do not interfere with the\u0000quantification of Fe via the ω570 (x) relation, whereas Cr\u0000>0.16 apfu leads to overestimation of Fe; Cr presence can be\u0000recognized however by the broadening of the peaks near 95 and 250 cm−1.\u0000","PeriodicalId":11971,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Mineralogy","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2023-04-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41732551","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Rutile from eclogite samples displays the dominant exchange\u0000reactions of Ti4+ → Ti3+, Fe3+ + H+, whereas\u0000rutile in a whiteschist shows mainly Ti4+ → Al3+ + H+.\u0000Trace-element-dependent H+ contents combined with LA–ICP–MS\u0000trace-element data reveal the significant importance of H+ for charge\u0000balance and trace-element coupling with trivalent cations. Trivalent cations\u0000are the most abundant impurities in rutile, and there is not enough H+\u0000and pentavalent cations like Nb and Ta for a complete charge balance,\u0000indicating that additionally oxygen vacancies are needed for charge\u0000balancing trivalent cations. Valance states of multivalent trace elements\u0000can be inferred from deconvoluted FTIR spectra. Titanium occurs at 0.03 ‰–7.6 ‰ as Ti3+, Fe, and Cr are preferentially\u0000incorporated as Fe3+ and Cr3+ over Fe2+ and Cr2+, and V\u0000most likely occurs as V4+. This opens the possibility of H+ in rutile as\u0000a potential indicator of oxygen fugacity of metamorphic and subduction-zone\u0000fluids, with the ratio between Ti3+- and Fe3+-related H+\u0000contents being most promising.\u0000","PeriodicalId":11971,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Mineralogy","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2023-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41836087","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
