Coexisting carbon-bearing inclusions found in deep mantle wedge peridotite

A research team led by Prof. Xiao Yilin from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) discovered the first diamond-magnesite-methane coexisting multiphase carbon-bearing inclusions in deep mantle wedge peridotite in subduction zone by using 3D Raman imaging analysis technique. The results were published in the National Science Review.
