The monthly newsletter pdf is also available at the Diamond Resource Centre "http://www.kaiserresearch.com/s/Education.asp?ReportID=364130"

an online archive of the Sheahan Diamond Literature Compilation organized by year and by author that includes article links and abstracts for the current year

Curious? Are people accessing and using this resource? Please let me know?

Register early for the 11th International Kimberlite Conference (11 IKC) to secure your place on the world-class field trips (information is available at www.11ikc.com)

Registration is now open!!!

QUERY: Is there any study on relating kimberlite modal mineral percentages to estimate the density of kimberlite and compare this with an actual measurement of the kimberlite density? Please send any note or references to me and I will collate/forward and outline in the next issue.
