SDLRC - Region: Andhra Pradesh - All


The Sheahan Diamond Literature Reference Compilation - Technical, Media and Corporate Articles based on Major Region - Andhra Pradesh
The Sheahan Diamond Literature Reference Compilation is compiled by Patricia Sheahan who publishes on a monthly basis a list of new scientific articles related to diamonds as well as media coverage and corporate announcements called the Sheahan Diamond Literature Service that is distributed as a free pdf to a list of followers. Pat has kindly agreed to allow her work to be made available as an online digital resource at Kaiser Research Online so that a broader community interested in diamonds and related geology can benefit. The references are for personal use information purposes only; when available a link is provided to an online location where the full article can be accessed or purchased directly. Reproduction of this compilation in part or in whole without permission from the Sheahan Diamond Literature Service is strictly prohibited. Return to Diamond Region Index

Each article reference in the SDLRC is tagged with one or more key words assigned by Pat Sheahan to highlight the main topics of the article. In addition most references have been tagged with one or more region words. In an effort to make it easier for users to track down articles related to a specific region, KRO has extracted these region words and developed a list of major region words presented in the Major Region Index to which individual region words used in the article reference have been assigned. Each individual Region Report contains in chronological order all the references with a region word associated with the Major Region word. Depending on the total for each reference type - technical, media and corporate - the references will be either in their own technical, media or corporate Region Report, or combined in a single report. Where there is a significant number of technical references there will be a technical report dedicated to the technical articles while the media and corporate references are combined in a separate region report. References that were added in the most recent monthly update are highlighted in yellow within the Region Report. The Major Region words have been defined by a scale system of "general", "continent", "country", "state or province" and "regional". Major Region words at the smaller scales have been created only when there are enough references to make isolating them worthwhile. References not tagged with a Region are excluded, and articles with a region word not matched with a Major Region show up in the "Unknown" report.

Abstract: The P-12 "para-kimberlite" from Wajrakarur consists of forsteritic olivine, Al-Na-poor diopside, Fe-Ti-rich, Al-poor phlogopite, K-Ti-richterite, spinel, perovskite, cymrite, apatite, barite, Ba-Sr- bearing calcite, gittinsite, witherite, strontianite, and hydrogrossular (hydrogarnet). The rock also contains small clasts consisting dominantly of calcite, with lesser Ba-Sr-bearing calcite, cymrite, barite, strontianite, witherite, apatite, and hydrogrossular. Two generations of forsteritic olivine (Fo80-93) crystals are present: common phenocrystal-to-microphenocrystal; and rare anhedral macrocrystic olivines. Phlogopite occurs as microphenocrysts and as groundmass poikilitic plates with inclusions of spinel, perovskite, apatite, and chlorite pseudomorphs (after pyroxene). Phlogopites also occur as reaction rims around olivine crystals. The phlogopites have extremely low Al2O3 (2.2-3.8 wt.%), moderate-to-high FeO (6.9-16 wt.%), TiO2(1.9-4.6 wt.%), and Na2O (0.4-2.7 wt.%) contents and are enriched in fluorine (up to 6.0 wt.%) and considered to be tetraferriphlogopite. The pyroxenes occur in five parageneses as: (1) phenocrysts and microphenocrysts; (2) small slender crystals(<30 µm) forming part of the groundmass; (3) the cores of richterite crystals; (4) reaction products replacing earlier-formed olivine; (5) acicular crystals mantling carbonate clasts. These pyroxenes do not differ significantly in composition and are all diopsides with minor variation in their TiO2, Al2O3, Na2O contents. Titanian-potassium richterite commonly occurs as: (1) groundmass poikilitic plates; (2) small prismatic crystals (<30 µm); (3) reaction rims on olivine and pyroxene crystals. Groundmass poikilitic richterites commonly enclose pyroxene and apatite. Perovskites have a bimodal size distribution. Small (<20 µm) euhedral perovskites are scattered throughout the groundmass, whereas larger (100-300 µm) subhedral-to-euhedral perovskites are patchily-zoned and commonly broken. Micro-clasts consisting of accumulations of perovskite with phlogopite and apatite are also present. Spinels occur as large atoll crystals and small (<20 µm), euhedral-to-subhedral crystals, scattered throughout the groundmass. Some small spinel crystals are also present in the rims of olivine and pyroxene crystals. Atoll spinels are up to 100 µm in size, commonly with single and double cores. Atoll spinels are typically associated with perovskites. The euhedral-to-subhedral small spinels are ulvospinels. The atoll spinels have cores of titanian aluminous magnesiochromite with rims of magnesian titaniferous magnetite. The spinels have compositions which evolve along the lamproite-spinel compositional trend. Zoned calcite crystals occur as residual phases. Late stage residual calcite and carbonate clasts host prismatic cymrite crystals which are interpreted as pseudomorphs after potassium feldspar and/or barite. Subhedral-to-euhedral gittinsite and its Sr-analog are reported for the first time from the groundmass carbonate-chlorite mesostasis of a lamproite. Square-to-rectangular crystals of cymrite and hydrogrossular occur in the carbonate clasts and groundmass material. Barite anhedra commonly occur in the carbonate clasts together with witherite, strontianite, and Ba-Sr-bearing calcite. The texture and compositions of olivine, phlogopite, spinel, and K-Ti-richterite, together with the presence of cymrite pseudomorphs, possibly after potassium feldspar, demonstrate that this intrusion is a bona fide olivine lamproite and not a kimberlite. It is postulated that this, and other lamproites, located adjacent to the Eastern Ghats Mobile Belt, are derived by extensional decompressional melting of ancient subduction zones underlying the cratonic regions.

Phani, P.R.C.Petrology and geochemistry of kimberlites from Lattavaram and Anumpalli clusters Anantapur district Anfhra Pradesh India.Thesis, Phd. Osmania University 258p., http://shodhganga.inflibnet.ac.in/handle/10603/178609.India, Andhra Pradeshdeposit - Lattavaram, Anumpalli

Abstract: The thesis is organized into six chapters. The first chapter enunciates general concepts of kimberlite geology covering literature, previous work, definitions, classification, mode of occurrence, regional geological history, global and Indian occurrences of kimberlites. The second chapter elucidates the common principles and practices applied and adopted in diamond exploration applicable to the Indian context, to some extent exemplifying the kimberlite clusters of the study area. A six-stage exploration strategy, applicable to Indian geological scenario, has been proposed. The third chapter portrays the general geological setting of the study area comprising Lattavaram and Anumpalli kimberlite clusters along with spatial morphologies of the pipes and various field geological characteristics illustrated through field photographs. The fourth chapter describes various mineralogical and petrographic characteristics observed in the pipes and their associated calcretes as well of the study area emphasising their genetic significance. The fifth chapter characteristically articulates the whole rock geochemistry with the aid of major, trace and rare earth element analyses to depict the classification of the pipes under study. This chapter also demonstrates calcrete geochemistry of calcretes associated with the kimberlite pipes of the study area in detail, perhaps for the first time. The sixth chapter describes the petrogenetic inferences including source region, partial melting, temperature, density and viscosity etc., derived from geochemical analyses and thereby demonstrates the diamond prospectivity of Lattavaram and Anumpalli kimberlite pipes. In a nutshell, this research work aims to present a detailed account of petrography, geochemistry, petrogenesis and diamond prospectivity of kimberlites from Lattavaram and Anumpalli clusters in light of recently discovered pipes. For the first time, petrographic and geochemical analyses of kimberlitic calcretes are presented and interpreted.

Phani, P.R.C.A new kimberlite pipe in Balkamthota Vanka, Pennahobilam, Anantapur district, Andhra Pradesh, India - field aspects and preliminary investigations.periodicomineralogia.it, Vol. 86, 3, 7p.India, Andhra Pradeshdeposit - Balkamthota Vanka

Abstract: Systematic closely spaced geological traverses conducted in the year 2010, in Lattavaram Kimberlite Cluster (LKC) of Anantapur district, Andhra Pradesh, India, have led to the discovery of a new kimberlite pipe outcrop in the river bed of Balkamthota Vanka (name of the stream used by local farmers) at its confluence with Penna River, close to Pennahobilam. This new pipe occurs at a distance of 1.5 km in NE direction to hitherto reported pipes-5 and 13 occurring at Muligiripalli and Tummatapalli respectively in the LKC of the Wajrakarur Kimberlite Field (WKF). With this pipe, the total number of kimberlite pipes in the WKF raises to 48, considering all the kimberlites discovered by various public and private organizations so far. Preliminary petrography, geochemistry, petrogenetic aspects and diamond prospectivity of the new occurrence have been presented here. Mineralogically, the kimberlite constitutes olivine macrocrysts, serpentinsed olivine psuedomorphs with xenocrystic ilmenite, phlogopite, perovskite, magnetite, Cr-diopside, garnet along with calcite veins. The kimberlite is classified as hypabyssal macrocrystic calcite- phlogopite kimberlite. Mineralogically, the new kimberlite pipe appears as archetypal Group- I kimberlite however, geochemically; the kimberlite shows character of both Group- I and II varieties, more close to lamproitic character. Although it is too early to comment, based on limited analyses carried out in this study, the diamond potentiality of this pipe is not encouraging; it is noteworthy that it highly warrants detailed investigations involving bulk rock geochemistry and drilling to assess its definite geochemical status, petrogenesis and diamond potentiality.

Phani, P.R.Restoring the past glory of diamond mining in south India - a plausible case of diamondiferous Wajrakarur kimberlite pipe clusters with geochemical evidences.International Journal of Mining and Geo-Engineering, Vol. 53, 2, pp. 1-11. pdfIndia, Andhra Pradeshdeposit - Wajrakarur

Abstract: A plausible case of collective and economical mining of diamondiferous kimberlite deposits of Wajrakarur and adjoining places in Andhra Pradesh, southern India, along with the whole-rock geochemical evidences in support of their diamond potentiality are discussed in this article. The kimberlites/lamproites are mantle-derived ultrabasic rocks which rarely carry diamonds from mantle to the earth's surface through carrot-shaped intrusions referred to as pipes. Even though few hundreds of diamondiferous kimberlite pipes were discovered in India so far, there is no other production unit than Panna diamond mine in the country where primary rock is mined. In ancient India, diamond mining in south India in the Krishna river valley was well-known to the world fascinated by famous gemstones like Koh-i-Noor, Hope, Darya-e-Noor, Noor-ul-ain etc. which were mainly extracted from alluvium or colluvium in Krishna river valley. Having bestowed with more than 45 kimberlite pipes, the Wajrakarur kimberlite field (WKF) forms a favourable region for initiating diamond mining in the country. Geochemically, majority of the WKF show low TiO2 content and considerably high diamond grade (DG) values (>3) except some pipes viz., P-5 (Muligiripalli), P-13 (Tummatapalli) and P-16 (Pennahobilam) are barren due to high TiO2 and ilmenite contents. The TiO2 content (0.66-6.62 wt %) is inversely proportional to the DG (3.33 to 22.13). The DG value of some of the WKF pipes is close to that of Panna (8.36). The cationic weight% values clearly portray the diamondiferous nature of these deposits. The WKF pipes were also proved to be diamondiferous by exploratory drilling and bulk sample processing results by the government and multinational organisations. In southern India, due to several reasons, diamond mining has not seen its initiation and impetus till now although it records a considerable number of fertile kimberlite pipes at Wajrakarur, Lattavaram, Chigicherla, Timmasamudram etc. Though the majority of WKF diamondiferous kimberlite deposits in Wajrakarur are small in their areal extent (0.06-4.48 Ha) some of them are large (>10 Ha up to 120 ha). They occur in close proximity to each other offering feasibility for collective mining and winning the precious stone through a central processing unit by deploying the latest processing technologies. The geographic conditions of this region such as availability of human resources, water resources, vast open lands, wind power generation etc. also support to initiate mining of kimberlite pipes in this area. The availability of rough diamonds produced from local mines will make the polishing industry to meet its business needs during circumstances of the shortage of rough stone influx from foreign. Hence, although it demands liberal investments, reviving diamond mining in southern India can be materialised with a meticulous evaluation of these deposits ascertaining profitability. This will certainly help to restore the past glory of diamond mining in the southern part of the subcontinent.

Phani, R., Sengupta, P., Basu, S.Geochemistry and petrology of two kimberlites at Krishtipadu from Gooty cluster, Andhra Pradesh, southern India - evidence of kimberlite magmatism and a possible carbonate association within Paleoproterozoic lower Cuddapah Basin.Russian Journal of Earth Sciences, Vol. 20, ES3006 14p. PdfIndia, Andhra Pradeshdeposit - Kristipadu

Abstract: This paper addresses geochemical and petrological aspects of two outcropping kimberlites (5023 and 5119) of the Gooty cluster, emplaced in carbonate sediments of Vempalli Formation of lower Cuddapah basin at Krishtipadu, Anantapur district, Andhra Pradesh, southern India. These pipes were discovered by the Rio Tinto Exploration Group in the recent past. The 5023 kimberlite is enriched in olivine and serpentine while the 5119 pipe possesses haematitised olivine pseudomorphs. The field, textural characteristics and whole rock geochemistry qualify both the pipes for hypabyssal kimberlite breccias of Group-I type similar to world’s classical occurrences. The carbon and oxygen stable isotope data, aided with field and petrological studies, indicates existence of possible carbonatite (sovite) phase associated with the 5119 kimberlite. The two kimberlites appear to be originated from a low degree of partial melting ranging from 0.5 to 2.5%. Enrichment of LREE with a high LREE/HREE ratio indicates fractionation at the mantle source region. Whole rock geochemistry supports their diamondiferous nature. Presence of crustal xenoliths post-dates subsequent emplacement of the two pipes to lower Cuddapah sedimentation (2.4 Ga), manifesting kimberlite magmatism. These pipes are the only known Group-I kimberlites from the Proterozoic Cuddapah Basin and therefore warrant detailed investigations. KEYWORDS: Kimberlite; carbonatite; archetypal Group-I; Gooty Kimberlite Cluster; lower Cuddapah basin; stable isotope; Palaeoproterozoic.

Phani, P.R.C., Lira, R., Espeche, M.J., Reddy, R.A.Geochemical and petrological studies of a magmatic carbonate-bearing metalamprophyre ( spessartite) at Kalagalla - evidence for shoshonitic calc-alkaline magmatism within auriferous Ramagiri-Penakacherla schist belt ( 2.5Ga), eastern Dharwar craton, southGeochimica Brasiensis, Vol. 34, 1, pp. 1-27. pdfIndia, Andhra Pradeshlamprophyres

Abstract: Geochemical and petrological characteristics of lamprophyre dykes at Kalagalla intruded into the auriferous schistose rocks of the Ramagiri- Penakacherla Schist Belt, Anantapur district, Andhra Pradesh, India are presented here. The Kalagalla lamprophyre (KGL) is a melanocratic rock exhibiting typical knobby or pustular texture on the surface. The microtextures and mineralogy typical of lamprophyres are obscured by metamorphism; however, it exhibits porphyritic, nemato-granoblastic texture representative of greenschist facies of metamorphism. The rock is sheared and possesses several globules formed by polycrystalline aggregates of calcite rimmed by coronitic subhedral plagioclase and biotite, evidencing its mantle-magmatic origin. The mineral assemblages noticed in thin-sections include amphibole, plagioclase, biotite, phlogopite and calcite ocelli as essential while apatite, zircon, magnetite, ilmenite, Ni-bearing chalcopyrite and pyrite as accessory phases. The SEM-EDS investigation on the accessory minerals revealed accessory sulphide and silicate phases like As-free pyrite, haematitised Ni-bearing chalcopyrite and Ni-As-Co- minerals indicative of sulphidation associated with greenstone auriferous lodes, along with silicates like LREE-bearing titanite partially transformed into leucoxene and oxide phases like magnetite altered to goethite at places. Based on mineral chemistry, whole rock geochemistry, presence of amphibole and dominance of plagioclase, the KGL is classified as a calc-alkaline variety in general and as spessartite in particular possessing shoshonitic affinity. No anomalous chemical composition is noticed in the ocellar calcite. The LREE-bearing titanite appears to be the contributor of LREE enrichment. The high Mg# (77- 79), Ni (153-162 ppm) and Cr (380-470 ppm) support a mantle source. The absence of Eu anomaly reflects lack of plagioclase fractionation. The high Zr/Hf ratio (163-202) indicates absence of crustal contamination and contribution of magmatic carbonate at the source to form ocelli as product of late-stage liquid silicate-carbonate immiscibility of segregation mechanism. The trace and REE patterns (?REE: 326-343 ppm, LREE>HREE) indicate involvement of residual garnet at the source presumably enriched in phlogopite in a ‘subduction-related’ environment.
