Abstract:

The first studies of diamonds in eclogitic xenoliths from the Komsomolskaya kimberlite pipe are described. Among round and oval-shaped xenoliths with diamond ingrowths, samples with a garnet content of 40–90% of the xenolith volume dominate. Two eclogite samples contain grains of accessory rutile; a kyanite sample is also revealed. Certain samples contain two or more crystals of diamonds. Diamonds with an octahedral habit and crystals with transitional habits, which belong to an octahedral-rhombic dodecahedral row, dominate in eclogites; there are many variety VIII aggregates. A high concentration of structural nitrogen, commonly in the A form, was registered in most of the crystals. Diamonds with a small content of nitrogen impurities, 40–67% in the B1 form, are present in a number of xenoliths. The calculated temperatures of the formation of eclogitic xenoliths is 1100–1300°C. Diversity in the impurity compositions of diamonds in the same xenolith shows that these diamonds were formed at various times and in different settings. The diamond position in xenoliths, the various level of nitrogen aggregation in the diamonds, and a number of other factors point to the later formation of the diamonds, as compared to minerals of eclogites, from fluid or fluid-melts in the process of metasomatosis.
