Evolution of Magmatic and Diamond-Forming Systems of the Earth's Lower Mantle
This book sheds valuable new light on the genetic mineralogy of lower-mantle diamonds and syngenetic minerals. It presents groundbreaking experimental results revealing the melting relations of ultrabasic and basic associations and a physicochemical perit
