Spectroscopic Investigations and Mineral Chemistry of Dunite from the Sargur Supracrustals (3 Ga) Greenstone Belt: Implications to Terrestrial Analogues for Lunar and Martian Dunite

Archean Serpentinised dunite is important not only for understanding the evolution of the ultramafic deposit of magnesium, but also serves as a possible sink material for the carbon dioxide sequestration. Future anti-pollution measures may include sequestering of waste CO 2 as magnesite (MgCO 3 ) by...

description Archean Serpentinised dunite is important not only for understanding the evolution of the ultramafic deposit of magnesium, but also serves as a possible sink material for the carbon dioxide sequestration. Future anti-pollution measures may include sequestering of waste CO 2 as magnesite (MgCO 3 ) by processing ultramafic rocks to obtain reactable Mg. For the first time, the Raman spectroscopic investigation of dunite is presented from the Karya, Sargur supracrustals (3Ga) Greenstone Belt. The Raman spectra of the sample reveal abundant presence of serpentine. Polymorphs of serpentine: lizardite, antigorite and chrysotile exhibit typical intense band at 685–692 cm −1 in the Raman spectrum. The Raman peaks in this study also indicates the presence of chromite and magnesite. The lunar dunite 72415, one of the oldest lunar samples of the Mg-suite, contains chromite symplectites indicative of crystallization at 40–50 km rather than at a shallow depth of
