Реферат:	eng: Melting phase relations have been determined in a model carbonated peridotite (5 wt.% CO2) at 10.5-32.0 GPa and 1300-1850 °C. The assemblage of silicate minerals coexisting with partial melts changes with pressures from forsterite/wadsleyite-clinoenstatite/akimotoite-garnet-clinopyroxene/Ca-perovskite at 10-20 GPa to Mg-perovskite-periclase-Ca-perovskite at 27-32 GPa. Magnesite is the only carbonate stable in peridotite through the studied pressure range. The solidus temperature was defined by the appearance of quenched carbonatite melt, which occurs at slightly lower temperature than that of disappearance of magnesite. Accordingly, solidus of carbonated peridotite in the present study is bracketed at 1380-1460 °C at 10.5 GPa, 1550-1650 °C at 16.5 GPa, 1620-1720 °C at 20 GPa, 1710-1850 °C at 27 GPa, and 1750-1890 °C at 32 GPa. The slope of solidus curve is more gradual at 10-32 GPa than at lower pressures. The solidus temperature was found to be in agreement with previous works on carbonated peridotite at pressures below 10 GPa with comparable alkali and CO2 contents in the starting material. Partial melts formed by melting of carbonated peridotite at 10.5-32.0 GPa have magnesiocarbonatitic compositions with moderate variations in Ca/Mg ratio and have high Na2O-contents. It has been demonstrated that alkali-rich magnesiocarbonatite melt can be generated by partial melting of carbonated peridotite at pressure up to at least 32 GPa, i.e. to the lower mantle depths. The generation of calciocarbonatite by melting of carbonated peridotite is unlikely in the deep mantle. Determined solidus temperatures allow stability of magnesite along the normal mantle geotherm, however minor heating or addition of potassium to the system can cause melting of carbonates. © 2009 Elsevier B.V.
