Abstract

To provide new insights into evolution of the primary ultramafic alkaline melts, we present an investigation of the primary and secondary melt inclusions within olivine macrocrysts and groundmass minerals from the Victoria monticellite-nepheline damtjernite, Anabar diamondiferous province, Siberia craton. The primary melt inclusions within olivine macrocrysts shown that initial damtjernite melts were K–Na bearing carbonate-silicate melts by composition whereas the K and Na associated within only silicate phases like that phlogopite, nepheline, kalsilite. That distinguishes these inclusions from similar inclusions in olivines from aillikites and kimberlites and emphasizes a more alkaline character of the damtjernitic parental melts. Based on the composition of melt inclusions within spinel and monticellite from magmaclastic groundmass, under the further evolution of the damtjernitic melts, K and Na are not only included in silicate daughter phases, but they can also form alkaline phosphates, carbonates, sulfates, and halides. That led to form the alkaline carbonate and saline sulfate-phosphate-chloride-carbonate liquids. This composition of the evolved ultramafic alkaline melt is common for melt inclusions within different minerals from aillikite, kimberlite and some carbonatites highlighted uniform mechanism of evolution of alkaline-ultramafic melts. Further accumulation of the fluid phase led to its reaction interaction with olivine with the formation of monticellite and degassing processes.
