Therefore we would like to invite scientists from a wide range of interest and experience. Additionally, we would like to invite oral- and poster presentations within UNESCO IGCP 557 entitled “Diamonds, xenoliths and kimberlites: A window into the earth’s interior”. Following topics are of interest: - Diamond exploration and diamond preservation - The formation and exploration of kimberlites - Petrology of the deep Earth - Water in nominally water free minerals and volatile transfer through the earth mantle - The formation of the continental crust - Geodynamic processes in the Earth mantle Invited speakers: Dr Hielke A. Jelsma (DeBeers) and Prof. Klaus Regenauer-Lieb (University of Western Australia) Conveners: Prof. Fanus Viljoen, University of Johannesburg, [log in to unmask] Dr. Holger Sommer, University of the Free State, [log in to unmask] This email and all contents are subject to the following disclaimer: http://disclaimer.uj.ac.za
