The Udachnaya diamondiferous kimberlite pipe is located in the northwestern part of the Daldyn–Alakit kimberlite province in Siberia (Fig. 1).At the surface, two adjacent kimberlite bodies (East and West) are recognised, and these can be traced to separate pipes in underground workings beyond ~ 250–270 m.Based on stratigraphic relationships …
Kimberlite is an ultramafic rock derived from the mantle. Diamonds crystallize in the mantle well below the crust but they are carried up into the crust by the rising kimberlitic magma. Only 1% of kimberlite is economic and these are almost always found in or above Archean cratons. Sub-Sahara in Africa and Russia together produce …
Nature Geoscience - Volatile-rich kimberlite magmas may be transported to the surface by broad mantle upwellings located above mobile basal mantle structures, …
Monomineralic millimeter-sized olivine nodules are common in kimberlites worldwide. It is generally thought that such 'dunitic nodules' originate from the base of the cratonic lithosphere and that their formation marks the onset of deep-rooted kimberlite magmatic plumbing systems. However, thermobarometric constraints to support such a …
Abstract To provide new insights into the origin and evolution of kimberlitic magmas with different diamond concentrations from the Arkhangelsk diamond province in north-western Russia, we examined the major- and trace-element compositions of ilmenite from diamondiferous kimberlite of the Grib pipe and diamond-barren kimberlites from …
Kimberlite deposits are typically pervasively serpentinised as a result of the reaction of olivine and water within a temperature range of 130-400 °C or less. We present a model for the influx of ground water into hot kimberlite deposits coupled with progressive cooling and serpentisation. Large-pressure gradients cause influx and heating of ...
We present the results of a detailed petrographic study of fresh coherent samples of the Menominee kimberlite sampled at site 73, located in Menominee County, MI, USA. Our objective is to account for its unusual and complex paragenetic sequence. Several generations of olivine, ilmenite, and spinel-group minerals are described. Early …
The Kennady North kimberlites are located on the southeastern Slave Geological Province (Fig. 1), an Archean craton ranging in age from ca. 4.03 Ga to 2.55 Ga (Helmstaedt and Pehrsson 2012).In the study area, the geological setting is typical of much of the craton in that it mostly comprises a meta-turbiditic greywacke-mudstone sequence …

Kimberlite chemical composition. Kimberlite is a potassic to ultrapotassic magnesium oxide-rich (15-27 wt. % MgO), silica-poor (20-36 wt.% SiO 2) ultramafic rock. This rare rock is rich in volatiles, incompatible elements, and rare Earth elements (REE) and has considerable iron and calcium oxides.
Deep, steep-sided kimberlite pipes in southern Africa are normally partially filled with multiple units of a characteristically massive, structureless volcaniclastic rock, …
The kimberlites of Riley and Marshall Counties are located just east of the mid-continent rift system in north-eastern Kansas (Fig. 1) and intrude Permian age limestone and shale of the Chase group (Brookins, 1970, Brookins and Naeser, 1971, Mansker et al., 1987, Berendson and Weis, 2001).Five of the twelve Kansas kimberlites crop out at the …
The kimberlites studied today represent deeper levels of the original kimberlite pipes. The first kimberlites were discovered in Kansas in the late nineteenth century; at first, these kimberlites weren't recognized as igneous rocks (Brookins, 1970a). Several more kimberlites were identified in the 1930's and 1950's (Tolman and Landes, 1939 ...
Globally distributed kimberlites with broadly chondritic initial 143 Nd-176 Hf isotopic systematics may be derived from a chemically homogenous, relatively primitive …
From 160 to 120 Ma, two peaks in kimberlite eruptions correlate with pulses of high slab flux from the subducting Farallon plate beneath the Americas which plunged 30–35 (^circ) into the ...
Prairies kimberlite pipe shapes. The Prairies kimberlites are large (up to 250 ha), relatively shallow bowl-shaped bodies. A narrow steep-sided feeder vent has been defined at Star. Two feeders occur in FALC 140-141 and FALC 122. Kimberlite to country rock contact dips are ~ 0–60°, most commonly 15–45°.
Kimberlite forms in vertical structures in the earth's crust known as kimberlite pipes. The mineral olivine—an olive-green to brown mineral made up of magnesium, iron, and silica—is the main constituent of kimberlite. Kimberlite is found in only a small portion of Riley and Marshall counties near Tuttle Creek Lake. Lamproite, the other ...

The material referred to as kimberlite, also called blue ground, is a dark-colored, often fragmented, intrusive rock that may contain diamonds in its rock matrix. It is named after the town of Kimberley, South Africa, where in 1869 the discovery of an 83 carat diamond inside kimberlite rock spawned the world's largest diamond rush.
Linear spatial distributions of kimberlite occurrences are commonly observed and have been interpreted by many scientists to be a consequence of continental structural control and syn-kimberlite emplacement tectonics (Dawson 1970; Marsh 1973; Sykes 1978; Jelsma et al. 2004).The recent consensus is that continental structural and tectonic …
Kimberlite eruptions start near the cratonic roots, at least 75 miles underground, and race upward at tens of feet per second — a fiery fury driven by an abundance of carbon dioxide and water.
Kimberlite magmas transport cratonic mantle xenoliths and diamonds to the Earth's surface. However, the mechanisms supporting the successful and efficient ascent of these cargo-laden magmas remains enigmatic due to the absence of historic eruptions, uncertainties in melt composition, and questions concerning their rheology. Mantle …
International Kimberlite Conferences (IKCs) are special events that are held across the world once in four to five years. IKC is the confluence platform for academicians, scientists and industrial personnel concerned with diamond exploration and exploitation, petrology, geochemistry, geochronology, geophysics and origin of the primary diamond host rocks …
Kimberlites are also economically important, as they are a major source of diamonds. Kimberlites are hybrid rocks consisting of minerals of different origins: xenogenic minerals produced by the fragmentation of foreign mantle and crustal rocks, primary minerals crystallized from kimberlite melt, and later minerals formed during the …
Here we used diamondiferous kimberlite ore bodies as a test case and show that DNA amplicon sequencing of soil microbial communities resolves anomalies in microbial community composition and ...
Abstract. This study aims to constrain the nature of kimberlite–xenolith reactions and the fluid origin for Kimberley-type pyroclastic kimberlite (KPK). KPKs are …
Kimberlite material is electrically conductive compared with host country rocks, and resistivity methods are useful in delineating large bodies. Electromagnetic …
Kimberlite magma can rise toward the surface at speeds estimated at up to 400 meters (1,200 feet) per second, ripping up more and more pieces from the surrounding rock, which gives the kimberlite its characteristic texture (fig. 3). Figure 2 --Generalized diagram of a kimberlite pipe. Figure 3 --Polished kimberlite core sample.
Kimberlite definition: A variety of peridotite forming pipes in which diamonds and garnets are often found.
Kimberlite eruptions have never been witnessed, because most kimberlites were formed millions to billions of years ago. But we know from their textures and volatile-rich nature that these ...
