Kimberlite rocks are solidified remnants of a specific type of nearly supersonic volcanic eruption of molten material derived from depths of up to 500 km. The igneous rock thus formed consists of igneous rock from depths far greater than normal volcanic eruptions, and include exotic minerals such as diamonds which form at depths greater than 100 km.
