Revisiting geochemical perspectives on degassing of the subcontinental lithospheric mantle
In general, mantle-derived volatiles are mainly released into the atmosphere through volcanoes in mid-ocean ridges and subduction zones. However,...

Deformation of the Subcontinental Lithospheric Mantle in NE China: Constraints from Rheological and Fabric Study of Mantle Peridotite Xenoliths from Jiaohe, Jilin Province
Mantle peridotite xenoliths in Jiaohe City, located near the northern part of the Tan-Lu fault, are key evidence for constraining the nature and...

Multistage evolution of subcontinental lithospheric mantle of northwestern Deccan volcanic province, India: Constraints from the ultramafic xenoliths in alkali magma
We report multistage geochemical evolution of off-cratonic subcontinental lithospheric mantle by studying mantle xenoliths hosted in alkali basalts...

Lead Isotope Systematics of the Orogenic Gold Deposits of the Baikal-Muya Belt (Northern Transbaikalia): Contribution of the Subcontinental Lithospheric Mantle in Their Genesis
Abstract—Orogenic gold deposits associated with metamorphic orogenic fold belts are the major sources of gold currently being mined in the world. The...

Petrologic Evolution of Post-collisional Magmas of Spinel-lherzolite Subcontinental Mantle Contaminated by Continental Crust; Palandöken (Erzurum) Volcanic Rocks in the East Anatolia, Turkey
The Palandöken volcanics are made up of a thick volcanic sequence consisting dominantly of tuffs and intercalated lava flows in Erzurum-Tekman basin....

Petrogenesis of Miocene to Quaternary primitive basaltic magmas in the area of Lake Van (East Anatolia, Turkey): a case for relamination of mantle lithosphere after lithospheric delamination
We present the geochemical and Sr–Nd–Pb isotopic data and the petrological evolution of primitive basaltic lavas that erupted from the Miocene to...

Evidence and timing of metasomatism of the lithospheric mantle before large-scale Deccan magmatism: Insights from the phlogopite–spinel–wehrlite xenoliths from Sarnu–Dandali alkaline igneous complex, Rajasthan, northwestern India
Wehrlite xenoliths recovered from lamprophyre dykes from Sarnu–Dandali alkaline igneous complex record three distinct events of modification in the...

Variations in Trace Element and Isotope Composition of Neoarchean Mafic Granulites of the Southwest Siberian Craton: a Consequence of Various Mantle Sources or Crustal Contamination
The paper presents geochemical and isotopic characteristics of Neoarchean (2.7–2.66 Ga) mafic granulites of the Sharyzhalgay uplift in the...

Widespread refertilization of cratonic lithospheric mantle related to circum-craton plate subduction: evidence from peridotite xenoliths from the central North China Craton
Subduction of the Pacific slab has been widely credited for the destruction of the eastern North China Craton (NCC). However, the nature of the...

Redox state of the Dharwar craton root as inferred from eclogite and peridotite sourced mantle cargo, with implications for kimberlite and lamproite magma formation
Despite over 400 occurrences of kimberlites and related rocks in India, mantle-derived xenoliths are known only from a few occurrences. This paucity...

Earth’s mantle composition revealed by mantle plumes
Mantle plumes originate at depths near the core−mantle boundary (~2,800 km). As such, they provide invaluable information about the composition of...

Nature and secular evolution of the lithospheric mantle beneath the North China Craton
The Archean mantle lithosphere beneath the North China Craton (NCC) was transformed in the Mesozoic, leading to the craton destruction. Despite the...
