The viscosity of kimberlite magma decreases by more than three times during its genesis, evolution, and ascent from mantle to crust despite the significant decrease in the temperature of the ascending kimberlite magma (similar to 150 degrees C) and its partial crystallization and degassing. In the case of partial melting (<1 wt.%) of carbonated peridotite in the mantle at depths of 250-350 km, high-viscosity (similar to 35 Pa.s) kimberlite melts can be generated at similar to 8.5 GPa and similar to 1350 degrees C, the water content in the melt being up to similar to 8 wt.%, C(OH-) = 0-2 wt.%, and C(H2O) = 0-6 wt.%. On the other hand, during the formation of kimberlite pipes, dikes, and sills, the viscosity of near-surface kimberlite melts is much lower (similar to 10 Pa.s) at similar to 50 MPa and 1200 degrees C, the volume contents of crystals (V-cr) and the fluid phase (bubbles) (V-fl) are 35 and 5 vol.%, respectively, and the water content in magma, C(OH-), is 0.5 wt.%. On the contrary, the viscosity of basaltic magmas increases by more than two orders of magnitude during their ascent from mantle to crust. The basaltic magmas which can be generated in the asthenosphere at depths of similar to 100 km have the minimum viscosity (up to similar to 2.3 Pa.s) at similar to 4.0 GPa, 1350 degrees C, C(OH-) approximate to 3 wt.%, and C(H2O) approximate to 5 wt.%. However, at the final stage of evolution (e.g., during volcanic eruptions), the viscosity of basaltic magma is considerably higher (600 Pa.s) at similar to 10 MPa, 1180 degrees C, V-cr approximate to 30 vol.%, V-fl approximate to 15 vol.%, and C(OH-) approximate to 0.5 wt.%.
