Kimberlite rock is the most important diamond host – the ore rock for diamonds. It’s a kind of volcanic rock, but a very rare and unusual one. Geologists figure there are many kimberlite pipes out there which remain to be discovered because they are covered over with soils. Ever look at a volcanic rock and wonder if it were kimberlite? Well, in this video we are digging in to take a look at this very unusual volcanic rock known as Kimberlite. I also want to clue you in to the special indicator minerals that show there may be a kimberlite pipe nearby. Bear with me I am going to give you the geologist’s definition of what Kimberlite is, there will be a lot of technical terms, but we will unpack them all and explain them as we go through this video. Once you have the description in hand, we will go thorough how to explore for kimberlite rocks.
