New Identity of the Kimberlite Melt: Constraints from Unaltered Diamondiferous Udachnaya – East Pipe Kimberlite, Russia - Advances in Data, Methods, Models and Their Applications in Geoscience - page 206

Tomlinson et al., 2004) further illustrate the potential significance of mantle-derived “salty“
fluids sampled by the kimberlite melt and fortuitously preserved at Udachnaya-East.

We are indebted to Victor Sharygin, Alexander Golovin and Nikolai Pokhilenko who
collected and supplied kimberlite samples for these studies and co-authored previous
publications. Alexander Sobolev initiated and supervised PhD studies of Maya Kamenetsky
and contributed a wealth of provocative ideas for discussion. We thank D. Kuzmin, P.
Robinson, S. Gilbert, K. McGoldrick, K. Gőmann, and L. Danyushevsky for providing help
with different analyses. The results and ideas were discussed with many researchers at
different conferences. In particular, we are grateful to D.H. Green, B. Dawson, G. Brey, C.
Ballhaus, G. Yaxley, R. Mitchell, O. Navon, N. Sobolev, O. Safonov, A. Chakhmouradian, S.
Kostrovitsky, S. Tappe, S. Matveev, M. Kopylova, L. Heaman, Ya. Fedortchouk and I.
Veksler for advice, moral support and friendly criticism. This study was initially (2003-2005)
supported by the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation (Germany) in the form of the
Wolfgang Paul Award to A. Sobolev and the Friedrich Wilhelm Bessel Award to V.
Kamenetsky. Financial support for these studies in 2005-2009 was provided by an
Australian Research Council Professorial Fellowship and Discovery Grant to V. Kamenetsky
“Unmixing in Magmas: Melt and Fluid Inclusion Constraints on Identity, Timing, and
Evolution of Immiscible Fluids, Salt and Sulphide Melts “.
