International Kimberlite meetings (IKCs) are detailed occasions which are held the world over as soon as in 4 to 5 years. IKC is the confluence platform for academicians, scientists and business team of workers fascinated about diamond exploration and exploitation, petrology, geochemistry, geochronology, geophysics and beginning of the first diamond host rocks and their entrained xenoliths and xenocrysts (including diamond) to party and planned on new advances in examine made within the intervening years. Ever because the association of first IKC in 1973 and its super good fortune, the full geological international eagerly wait for next such meetings with nice enthusiasm and pleasure. The clinical emanations from IKCs proceed to make major impression on our realizing of the composition, nature and evolution of the planet we are living on. the former meetings have been held at Cape city (1973), Santa Fe, New Mexico (1977), Clermont-Ferrand, France, (1982).

The 10th IKC used to be held at Bangalore, India among 5th and 11th February 2012. The convention used to be equipped by way of the Geological Society of India in organization with the govt organisations, educational associations and Indian diamond mining businesses. approximately three hundred delegates from 36 nations attended the convention and 224 papers have been provided. The papers contain seventy eight oral displays and 146 poster displays on following themes: Kimberlite geology, starting place, evolution and emplacement of kimberlites and similar rocks, petrology and geochemistry of metasomatised lithospheric mantle magmas, diamond exploration, cratonic roots, diamonds, diamond mining and sustainable advancements and regulations and governance of diamond exploration. Pre- and post-conference box journeys have been prepared to (i) the diamond bearing kimberlites of Dharwar Craton in south India, (ii) lamproites of Bundelkhand Craton in northern India and (iii) diamond slicing and sharpening of Surat, Gujarat in western India. a sequence of social and cultural programmes depicting cultural variety of India have been equipped throughout the convention. The Kimberlite fraternity loved another socially and scientifically profitable conference.

Overall, the 2008–2011 mining bulk sample results show that the diamond grades are, as predicted, extremely variable. Data for 160 Bench are presented in Fig. 3d; most of the sample grades vary up to 61 cpht with two outliers at 81 and 162 cpht.
