Garnet geotherms: Pressure‐temperature data from Cr‐pyrope garnet xenocrysts in volcanic rocks

Abstract: The temperatures and pressures of equilibration of single peridotitic garnet xenocrysts are estimated using a combination of major-and trace-element data, determined using electron microprobe (EMP) and proton induced X ray emission (PIXE). This new method enables the use of xenocrysts found in kimberlites and other volcanic rocks to determine the local paleogeotherm at the time of eruption of the magma which sampled and transported the xenocrysts. The "Ni thermometer" of Griffin et al. [ 1989], based on the st… Show more

“…Although Mg# increases uniformly with temperature, Cr# does not, corroborating a temperature control on pyrope Mg#. Since the Ni thermometry methodology of Ryan et al (1996) employed here is calibrated against the gt/ol Fe/Mg K D mentioned above, the strong correlation of Mg# with T Ni is expected in a well-behaved, closed system. The strong correlation in the craton core data contrast with those at the craton mantle edges where there have been considerably more disturbances due to open system behavior and an influx of higher volumes of metasomatic components.…”
