I am conducting my undergraduate thesis research on clinopyroxene and garnet xenocrysts from the Star kimberlite at Fort a la Corne. There, kimberlite is interspersed with sediments deposited during the Early Cretaceous in the Western Canadian Sea Way (Cantuar, Pense and Early Joly Fou groups). My research examines if there is any variation in paleogeotherm and depth of sampling over this ~ 1 million year period.
