Ringwoodite and zirconia inclusions indicate downward travel of super-deep diamonds

Abstract: Natural diamonds and their inclusions provide unique glimpses of mantle processes from as deep as ~800 km and dating back to 3.5 G.y. Once formed, diamonds are commonly interpreted to travel upward, either slowly within mantle upwellings or rapidly within explosive, carbonate-rich magmas erupting at the surface. Although global tectonics induce subduction of material from shallow depths into the deep mantle, mineralogical evidence for downward movements of diamonds has never been reported. We report the findin… Show more

“…As the oxygen fugacity is above the IW buffer, the high Fe 3+ concentration of jeffbenite in the mantle might reflect extreme redox changes (Nestola, Regier, et al., 2023). At some depths, the Fe 3+ ‐jeffbenite inclusions might be a product of a redox reaction involving carbonatitic magmas and carbonates is as the oxidizing agent which responsible for generating the high Fe 3+ of these deep mantle inclusions (Lorenzon et al., 2022; Thomson et al., 2016). The question remains, whether or not Fe 3+ ‐jeffbenite is a redox reaction product during diamond formation at different depths in the slab, or whether it possesses a distinct stability field within certain mantle compositions.…”

“…Nel lavoro di Carboni et al (2022) sono stati utilizzati i dati SAR del satellite giapponese ALOS-2, acquisiti nel periodo compreso tra il 24 Agosto 2016 (successivamente all'evento principale del 24 Agosto di M=6.0) e il 9 Novembre 2016, per analizzare l'area colpita degli eventi sismici di Ottobre 2016. In particolare, sono stati sfruttati dati acquisiti sia lungo le orbite ascendenti (mentre il satellite orbita da Sud a Nord), sia lungo le orbite discendenti (mentre il satellite orbita da Nord a Sud), in modo da produrre interferogrammi differenziali cosismici e le relative mappe di spostamento del suolo lungo la linea di vista del radar (LOS).…”

“…I risultati del lavoro di Carboni et al (2022) dimostrano l'affidabilità e le grandi potenzialità delle misure DInSAR nel tracciare rapidamente deformazioni cosismiche, con una accuratezza centimetrica, anche se localizzate in aree remote caratterizzate da topografie complesse. Tali mappe di spostamento possono quindi essere considerate un valore aggiunto all'analisi delle deformazioni indotte da un terremoto ed un supporto alle attività sul campo durante le fasi emergenziali.…”
