The diameter of a kimberlite pipe at the surface is typically a few hundred meters to a kilometer (up to 0.6 mile). Kimberlites are the most important source of primary diamonds. Many kimberlite pipes also produce rich alluvial or eluvial diamond placer deposits. However, only about 1 in 200 kimberlite pipes contain gem-quality diamonds.
The rock is called kimberlite after the city of Kimberley, South Africa, where the pipes were first discovered in the 1870s. Another rock that provides diamonds is lamproite. The volcano that carries diamond to the surface emanates from deep cracks and fissures called dikes.
