Изотопная систематика благородных газов в породах Субконтинентальной мантии на примере мантийных ксенолитов из вулканических полей Саудовской Аравии и Европы
Диссертация
Научная новизна. Впервые проведено детальное исследование влияния эффектов мантийного метасоматоза на изотопный состав аргона в мантийных ксенолитах Саудовской Аравии. Выявлена существенная неоднородность изотопного состава аргона в ксенолитах, которая отражает взаимодействия с изотопно и генетически разными флюидами и/или расплавами в течение, по крайней мере, двух различных периодов мантийного… Читать ещё >
