Diamonds in old sedimentary rocks and their source (on the basis of Yakutia kimberlite province)
This study provides the results of a complex investigation of a number of kimberlite bodies with half-industrial diamond content in several regions of the Siberian platform. This allowed us to establish the typomorphic features of the mineral.

Ecological Risk Assessment of PTEs in Topsoils Impacted by Diamond Mining (Yakutia, Russia) [PDF]
The concentrations of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in the topsoils of Udachny mining area were determined. The soil samples were taken from the 42 topsoil samples at a depth of 0-20 cm.

Kimberlite wall-rock fragmentation processes: Venetia K08 pipe development [PDF]
Current kimberlite pipe development models strongly advocate a downward growth process with the pipe cutting down onto its feeder dyke by means of volcanic explosions.

Reconstruction of a multi-vent kimberlite eruption from deposit and host rock characteristics: Jericho kimberlite, Nunavut, Canada [PDF]
The Jericho kimberlite (173.1. ±. 1.3. Ma) is a small (~. 130. ×. 70. m), multi-vent system that preserves products from deep (>. 1. km?) portions of kimberlite vents.

Petrology and textural classification of the Jericho kimberlite, northern Slave Province, Nunavut, Canada [PDF]
The paper presents data on petrology, bulk rock and mineral compositions, and textural classification of the Middle Jurassic Jericho kimberlite (Slave craton, Canada). The kimberlite was emplaced as three steep-sided pipes in granite that was overlain by

An ion microprobe U-Th-Pb study of zircon xenocrysts from the Lahtojoki kimberlite pipe, eastern Finland [PDF]
Eleven relatively large (diameter 1–2 mm) zircon grains extracted from the Lahtojoki kimberlite pipe (Eastern Finland Kimberlite Province) have been analysed by the ion microprobe NORDSIM for their U- and Pb- isotopic composition.

Kimberlite magmas are volatile-rich, silica-poor ultrabasic magmas originating as small-degree mantle melts at depths of 150 km or greater. Alteration and entrained xenoliths obscure their original magma chemistry and properties.
