Komatiites, kimberlites, and boninites [PDF]
When the mantle melts, it produces ultramafic magma if the site of melting is unusually deep, the degree of melting is unusually high, or the source is refractory. For such melting to happen, the source must be unusually hot or very rich in volatiles. Differing conditions produce a spectrum of ultramafic magma types.

Kimberlites Identification by Classification Methods [PDF]
Kimberlites identification is a very important task for diamond mining. In traditional way, geologists draw upon past experience to do this work. Whether the bedrock should be drilled depends on their analysis of rock samples. This method has two disadvantages.

Mathematical methods of search for diamond-bearing areas and kimberlite fields in closed territories
Based on the analysis of the interrelationships between real kimberlite fields and the location of kimberlite tubes of the world, a structural and mathematical method for the search for diamond-bearing regions and kimberlite fields is proposed.
