Rare earth element characteristics of pyrope garnets from the Kaavi-Kuopio kimberlites - implications for mantle metasomatism
Peridotitic garnet xenocrysts from five kimberlite pipes in the Kaavi-Kuopio area of eastern Finland have been studied using major and trace element geochemistry to obtain information on the stratigraphy, compositional variability and evolutionary history of the underlying lithospheric mantle. Ni th...
