Abstract/NotesAbstractIn calcites and dolomites in seven African carbonatites, SrO, FeO and MnO occur in concentrations from 1 to 2 wt.%, whereas Ce, Y, Cu and Zn occur only at the ppm level. Sr, Ce and Y partition preferentially into calcite relative to co-existing dolomite, whereas Fe and Mn favour dolomite. Sr partitions preferentially into calcite relative to co-exisiting apatite, but the light rare-earth elements partition into apatite. Magnetite from Kerimasi contains up to 13 wt.% MgO and 6 wt.% MnO, extending the known ranges in composition of magnetites from carbonatites.
