Helium in diamonds unravels over a billion years of craton metasomatism

Diamonds encapsulate the deep Earth fluids that form them, providing windows to deep mantle processes. This study constrains their ages, based on uranium-thorium-to-helium radioactive decay in the fluids and helium diffusivity in diamond, and relates diamond formation to geological events in Souther...
