Journal ArticleDOI

Hydrogen sulphide release to surface waters at the Precambrian/Cambrian boundary

TL;DR: It is suggested that the Early Cambrian animal radiation may have been triggered by a major change in ocean circulation, terminating a long period during which the Proterozoic ocean was stratified, with sulphidic deep water.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lead, uranium, strontium, potassium and rubidium in inclusion-bearing diamonds and mantle-derived xenoliths from Southern Africa

TL;DR: In this article, measurements of K, Rb, Sr, U, Th and Pb levels and isotopic compositions in sulphide inclusions in diamonds are reported, indicating that the diamonds containing these inclusions are xenocrysts in the host kimberlite.
Journal ArticleDOI

Unraveling the record of successive high grade events in the Central Zone of the Limpopo Belt using Pb single phase dating of metamorphic minerals

TL;DR: Using Pb stepwise leaching of metamorphic silicates, the Central Zone (CZ) of the Limpopo Belt has been studied in this paper, where three distinct high grade events at about 3.2−3.1 Ga, 2.65−2.52 Ga and 2.0−0.05 Ga are recognized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Climate on the Southern Black Sea coast during the Holocene: implications from the Sofular Cave record

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented the updated Holocene section of the Sofular Cave record from the southern Black Sea coast (northern Turkey), an area with considerably different present-day climate compared to that of the neighboring Eastern Mediterranean region.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trace element and isotope studies on veined, metasomatic and “MARID” xenoliths from Bultfontein, South Africa.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the nature of the metasomatic processes and the character of the kimberlitic fluid or liquid and that generating the MARID samples.
