Scientific paper

The experimental study of Olafsson and Eggler [1] is not inconsistent with the model system CaO-MgO-SiO2-CO2, if an alternate topology for peridotite-CO2-H2O is considered. Although peridotite-H2O-CO2 solidi present barriers to ascent of partially-melted peridotite, solidi should be applied to melts with caution. Melts such as kimberlites plausibly can ascend rapidly through fractures without appreciable reaction with peridotitic wallrocks.
