- Description: The estimation of post-emplacement kimberlite erosion in South Africa through the study of upper-crustal xenoliths is relatively unexplored; however the presence of these xenoliths has been recognized for well over a 100 years. Previously postemplacement erosion levels of a small number of kimberlite pipes have been inferred through the study of the degree of country-rock diagenesis, the depth of sill formation and the depth of the initiation of diatreme facies kimberlite.

- Description: This paper has been prepared specifically for the September 2006, Kimberlite Emplacement Workshop, Saskatoon, Canada. To this end, emphasis is placed on a big bang/ bottom-up model for the emplacement of Class 1 kimbertite pipes first presented by Clement and Reid (1989) and reinforced by Skinner and Marsh (2004). In this part (Part 1) the evidence of various geological features is presented.
