Flotation of olivine and diamond in mantle melt at high pressure
The density of the three ultramafic melts, PHN1611, IT8720, and MA at high pressure was determined by the sink-float method using olivine and diamond as density markers. Using these data, we obtain K and K' of the Birch-Murnaghan equation of state for the compression curves of the silicate melts. The density relation between the mantle …
Determining the composition of C–H–O liquids following high-pressure …
Here, we present the first analytical technique (the quartz tube system technique—QTS) to directly analyze H 2 O and CO 2 contents in liquids following high-pressure, high-temperature experiments in capsules containing mantle minerals and a diamond layer serving as a fluid/melt trap. In this technique, the capsule is frozen prior …

Our new high-pressure experiments show that most carbonates (>75 wt%) in carbonate-rich crustal rocks—one of the main subducting carbon reservoirs—survive devolatilization and hydrous melting ...
Determining the composition of high-pressure mantle melts using diamond
We present a new experimental technique for circumventing the quenching problems that have plagued high-pressure peridotite melting studies. A thin layer of ~50 μm diamonds is placed above a layer of peridotite powder. Partial melt extracted from the peridotite layer collects in the pore spaces between the diamonds and equilibrates diffusively with the …
Flotation of diamond in mantle melt at high pressure
Experiments show that diamond floats in a primitive mantle melt at around 20 gigapascals and 2360 degrees C and in a melt formed by partial melting of the transition zone at …

Flotation of diamond in mantle melt at high pressure —
These observations constrain magma densities at high pressure. Diamond precipitated or trapped in a silicate melt at the base of the transition zone or the lower mantle floats and has been accumulating in the transition zone since early in Earth's history. Thus, the transition zone could be a reservoir of diamond.
Density of basaltic melt at high pressure and stability of the melt …
Suzuki et al. [9] argued the importance of diamond–melt density crossover in diamond genesis, i.e., diamond may concentrate in the transition zone because a density crossover between peridotitic melt and diamond exists in the transition zone depth and flotation of diamond occurs in the deeper mantle. The present results imply that …

Diamonds sampled by plumes from the core-mantle boundary
Abstract. Diamonds are formed under high pressure more than 150 kilometres deep in the Earth's mantle and are brought to the surface mainly by volcanic rocks called kimberlites. Several thousand ...
Ophiolites, diamonds, and ultrahigh-pressure minerals: New discoveries
This approach was important because Saccani et al. (2018) used trace element modeling to define the melt, mantle residua, and melt-mantle source relationships for each identified magma type and its extrusive product found in the ophiolites. This is the first paper in the literature that reports a systematic geochemical characterization and ...

Stability field of new hydrous phase, δ‐AlOOH, with …
We report stability field of a new hydrous phase δ-AlOOH, which is a high pressure polymorph of diaspore. This phase is stable at pressures from 17 GPa to at least up 25 GPa at around 1000 to 1200°C, which are likely conditions expected in the slabs descending into the lower mantle. ...

Melting of Diamond at High Pressure | Science
Abstract. Melting of diamond at high pressure and the properties of liquid carbon at pressures greater than 1 megabar were investigated with a first-principles molecular dynamics technique. The results indicate an increase of the diamond melting temperature with pressure, which is opposite to the behavior of silicon and germanium.
Density of basaltic melt at high pressure and stability of the melt …
We made density measurements of model MORB and picritic melts up to about 15 GPa using the floating diamond method. The compression behavior of the melts is fitted by the Vinet equation of state and extrapolated to higher pressure. A density crossover between the MORB melt and the mantle peridotite is suggested at the base …
