摘要
The Nemby mantle xenoliths are represented by spinel peridotites variably affected by “metasomatic processes” in Proterozoic times (1.2–0.5 Ga). Clinopyroxene compositional variations mainly reflect variably degrees of basalt extraction and mantle “metasomatic processes”. Clinopyroxene crystal chemistry allows to estimate the equilibration pressure by V(Cell) and V(M1) relationship. The investigated clinopyroxenes yielded a pressure range of 12–18 kb. Therefore, the Nemby xenoliths are representative of about 20 km thickness of subcontinental lithospheric mantle of the South America platform at Tertiary times (ca. 46 Ma).
