Kimberlites are of interest for both Earth scientists and mining engineers because (i) they are produced at very large depth and, so, provide information about the deep Earth composition and also (ii) because they are sources of diamonds. This is why, kimberlites are prospected in all continents. It is well known, electrical methods usually provide useful information to delineate kimberlite pipes, which typically show small apparent resistivity values.
