Abstract
Cr-pyrope is one of the most abundant mineral inclusions in peridotitic diamonds and its thermal equation of state (EoS) is a prerequisite for accurately determining its entrapment pressure (Pe), which is important to understanding the physicochemical environment of diamond formation. We present in situ single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) experimental results of five natural Cr-pyropes (Cr# = 0.3–22.4, Cr# = Cr/(Cr + Al)) at high pressure (P), high temperature (T), and high P–T up to 13.2 GPa and 950 K. The obtained P–volume(V)–T data were used to derive EoS parameters. The results indicated that the compressional behaviors of these Cr-pyropes are close (up to 2.8% difference), but the differences between their thermal expansivities are up to 8.8%. The thermal expansivities of the Cr-pyropes are significantly higher than that of end-member garnets (pyrope, almandine, and grossular) obtained by room-P high-T XRD, but they are consistent with the end-member thermal expansivities obtained by high P–T XRD. To investigate the compositional effects on the estimation of Pe of Cr-pyrope, the obtained EoS parameters were used to calculate the Pe in diamond. The results indicated that the variation in thermal expansion behavior plays a more significant role in influencing the Pe in comparison with the compressional behavior. In addition, the Pe of the Cr-pyropes are compared with the Pe of end-member garnets (pyrope, almandine, grossular, and uvarovite), which indicates that the low-Cr (Cr# = 0.3–4.4) pyropes are closer to pyrope in Pe while the high-Cr (Cr# = 9.3–22.4) pyropes are closer to grossular.
