Djerfisherite in the Udachnaya-East pipe kimberlites (Sakha-Yakutia, Russia): Paragenesis, composition and origin
Djerfisherite, an unusual potassium- and chlorine-bearing sulphide K 6Na(Fe,Ni,Cu) 24S 26Cl, is found in remarkably fresh rocks of the Udachnaya-East kimberlite pipe, including several varieties of kimberlite and a kimberlite-hosted phlogopite-spinel lherzolite xenolith. In both kimberlite breccia a...
