Abstract This contribution presents an updated descriptive scheme for magmaclasts in kimberlite, resulting from over 40 combined years of mapping, logging, and petrographic studies by the authors of hundreds of kimberlites and related rocks globally.

A study of unusual diamonds from the George Creek K1 Kimberlite dyke, Colorado
Cathodoluminescence photomicrographs of diamonds from the George Creek Kl (section 28) kimberlite dyke in Colorado reveal complex intergrowth relationships between CO?-free and CO?-bearing diamond growth generations.

Specification of criteria of diagnostics of kimberlites of Yakutia: Petrochemistry and mineralogy
To improve specification accuracy for investigated basic-ultrabasic rocks of Yakutian diamond-bearing province, mineralogical criteria (micas and perovskites) were additionally applied.

Time constraints on the formation of lithospheric mantle beneath cratons: a re-Os isotope and platinum group element study of peridotite xenoliths from northern Canada and Lesotho, [PDF]
Understanding the generation and evolution of cratonic lithospheric keels requires detailed knowledge of their age, timescale of formation, and the relationship between the crust and mantle part of the lithosphere.

Structure des peridotites en enclave dans les kimberlites d'Afrique du sud
The peridotite xenoliths from kimberlites are classified into three textural groups and seven textural subtypes: the coarse-grained textures (equant or tabular), the flaser textures (porphyroclastic, mosaic and mosaic fluidal), and the secondary textures

Djerfisherite in kimberlites and their xenoliths: implications for kimberlite melt evolution
Djerfisherite (K6(Fe,Ni,Cu)25S26Cl) occurs as an accessory phase in the groundmass of many kimberlites, kimberlite-hosted mantle xenoliths, and as a daughter inclusion phase in diamonds and kimberlitic minerals.
