South African Journal of Geology (2017) 120 (1): 1–20.
...S.E. Haggerty Abstract Our earlier studies continued in a diligent search for rare ultradeep xenoliths in the kimberlite diatreme at Jagersfontein. The search has met with moderate success insofar as 20 majorite-bearing (decomposed to * gt + lamellar px) xenoliths are identified. Discrete gts (1...

...Richard A. Exley; Joseph V. Smith; J. Barry Dawson Abstract Alkremites (gamet-spinel-corundum), garnetites, and eclogites (garnet-clinopyroxene) from Bellsbank and Jagersfontein kimberlites show textural and mineralogical evidence of crystal fractionation from evolving aluminous magma: e.g ., Ca...

Jagersfontein isochron obtained from sulfides with visible cracks to the surface of the diamond. Six inclusions yield an imprecise date of 252 ± 42 Ma (Sonja Aulbach, unpublished data), which is younger than other diamond ages determined for Jagersfontein and significantly older than kimberlite eruption (86 Ma; Smith 1983). See text for further details.

P-T conditions for crystallization of the Monastery (Mon) and Jagersfontein (Jag) megacryst suites, adapted from Gurney et al., 1979. The kimberlite solidus is from Eggler and Wendlandt (1979). The dashed line marked CCO shows the approximate temperature at which the Wüstite-magnetite buffer crosses below the CCO buffer, permitting a stable carbon phase (graphite or diamond). Down-pointing arrows: “Mon” denotes the temperature range of megacryst crystallization at Monastery at 45 kb, with temperature intervals for crystallization of different phases shown to the left. “Jag” shows the temperature crystallization range for the Jagersfontein megacryst suite at 51 kb (from Hops et al., 1992).

SEM images and equivalent diagrams of two Jagersfontein grt + cpx + spl symplectites in garnet harzburgites. Dotted region = garnet, Dashed region = cpx + spl. The images show garnet replacing cpx + spl. (a) A garnet and garnet + spinel corona surrounds a core of cpx + spl. (b) A garnet containing a large included domain of symplectite cpx + spl, and several smaller cpx + spl domains. The garnet also contains several isolated spinel inclusions.

Chondrite-normalized compositions of REE in majorites showing the wide spread of compositions from São Luiz, Jagersfontein and Monastery; and the lesser spread from Kankan. Only the overall range of compositions is given for São Luiz, Monastery and Kankan (which overlaps little with São Luiz). For Jagersfontein, individual sample compositions are also shown by the linked blue-grey dots. The average composition of N-MORB is shown for comparison. Based primarily on data from: Moore et al. (1991), Harte (1992), Stachel et al. (2000a) and Tappert et al. (2005a); and adapted from Tappert et al. (2005a).

(a) An outline of the Kaapvaal Craton, South Africa, surrounded by an orogenic belt, with the location of major tectonic blocks, selected stratigraphic units, and the main clusters of kimberlites. Jagersfontein lies close to the Colesberg Lineament and Monastery borders Lesotho, where the first recognition of diamond-inclusion majorite was made (modifiedfrom Schmitz et al. 2004). (b) The 150 km slice of the P-wave seismic velocity map of the Kaapvaal craton showing the locations of the main kimberlite fields: The southern cluster consists of Jagersfontein (JA), Koffiefontein (KO), Kimberley (D. De Beers, Dutoitspan and Wesselton), Finch (F), andRoberts Victor (R); and the northern province is composed of Premier (P), Venetia (V), Jwaneng (JW), Letlhakane (LE), and Orapa (O). The inset to the left are the relative locations of the Kaapvaal (K), Limpopo (L), and Zimbabwe (Z) cratons. The anomalies are considered to be compositionally-controlled-.fast (blue) areperidotitic; slow (red) are eclogitic (Shirey, et al., 2002), but as discussed in the text the assumption is notfullyjustified.
