The finds of giant CLIPPIR-type diamonds in the placers hosted by the Ebelyakh River basin in the north of Yakutia suggest that similar diamonds can be found in the kimberlites of the Anabar region and the nearest northern deposits located within the ...

The complex of geophysical methods was successfully applied in the Alakit-Markha kimberlite field of the Yakutsk diamondiferous province. A pipe was identified in the local forecast area specified within the field at the previous stage of prospecting ...

Following kimberlite indicator minerals to source in the Chidliak Kimberlite Province, Nunavut
The discovery of diamond-bearing kimberlite within the Chidliak kimberlite province on Hall Peninsula, southern Baffin Island, Nunavut, is a classic example of the application of traditional diamond-exploration techniques in a glaciated terrain. To date,

The successful prospecting of kimberlite pipes is dependent upon a comprehensive understanding of the deep structures of the pipes and the host geological formation. This is a challenging task, given the complex nature of diamond deposits, the small size

Competence and lithostratigraphy of host rocks govern kimberlite pipe morphology
We use analogue experimentation to test the hypothesis that host rock competence primarily determines the morphology of kimberlite pipes. Natural occurrences of kimberlite pipes are subdivided into three classes: class 1 pipes are steep-sided diatremes ...

The presence of kimberlites in the Democratic Republic of Congo has been known since buttgenbach reported a typical ‘yellow ground’ in Katanga as early as 1908, and prospecting work before and after 1914 had already identified twenty-four pipes in ...

Brines in deep horizons of the Udachnaya kimberlite pipe
The study was focused on groundwaters sampled from boreholes drilled to deep horizons of the Udachnaya kimberlite pipe and the host sedimentary strata. Brines in the rocks significantly complicate underground mining. Analysis of the hydrogeological setting is required to ensure safety during mining to the design levels.

More than three hundred kimberlite pipes have been reported in Tanzania. Only a few are diamond–bearing. A prospecting criteria to outline the diamond and non-diamond bearing kimberlites has been proposed.

In the first part of this thesis the petrological status of 'kimberlite' is defined and mineralogical and textural classifications which allow systematic documentation and collation of these complex rocks are evaluated.
