Abstract
Experimental studies of phase relations in the oxide–silicate system MgO–FeO–SiO2 at 24 GPa show that the peritectic reaction of bridgmanite controls the formation of stishovite as a primary in situ mineral of the lower mantle and as an effect of the stishovite paradox. The stishovite paradox is registered in the diamond-forming system MgO–FeO–SiO2–(Mg–Fe–Ca–Na carbonate)–carbon in experiments at 26 GPa as well. The physicochemical mechanisms of the ultrabasic–basic evolution of deep magmas and diamondforming media, as well as their role in the origin of the lower mantle minerals and genesis of ultradeep diamonds, are studied.
