Pellet-rich tuffistic (volcaniclastic) serpentine kimberlite breccia occupies the southern fissure appendage of the pipe which is extremely rich in mantle xenocrysts, megacrysts and
xenoliths. The southern portion of the pipe contains pellet and autolithrich layered pyroclastic kimberlite, generally of sandy tuff.
This review aims at discussing (1) the relationships between tectonics and magmatic activity on the basis of field and geophysical data; (2) a detailed description of the geological characteristics of the Asuncioan-Sapucai-Villarrica (ASV) graben; (3) petrography and petrochemistry of the magmatic rock-types (and the associated mantle
xenoliths) from ASV; (4) the most important geochemical and Sr-Nd isotopic features of the magmatism; (5) the petrogenesis and geodynamic implications.
Xenoliths are rock fragments or inclusions that are torn from the sides of lava tubes and caught up in magma as it moves through Earth.

Corona-type aggregates that formed on
xenolith margins may be analogous to pegmatoidal "strain shadows" reported in some granitoids, which formed through the flow of intercumulus melt into low-pressure areas generated by the rotation of
xenoliths during late-magmatic deformation (Paterson and Miller 1998).
Hill and Ross (1983) determined a broad range of Rb-Sr and Sm-Nd ages for megacrysts and
xenoliths in the Porter Square camptonite, but a well-constrained internal Sm-Nd isochron age of 238 [+ o r-] 26 Ma was determined for a coarse-grained, graphite-garnet-bearing granulite
xenolith.
However, the following disciplines would all be natural and equal partners in this potential "big science" project: major and trace element geochemistry, isotope geochemistry, paleomagnetism, paleo-intensity studies and insights into core dynamics, structural geology and tectonics, regional mapping, sequence stratigraphy and basin analysis, petrology and
xenolith studies, geophysics, geodynamic modeling, economic geology (Ni-Cu-PGEs, Cr, diamonds), Earth systems science and the study of extinction events.
Interestingly, colorless to pale pink acicular microscopic crystals associated with albite and titanite on a granodiorite
xenolith from the main vein at Mineral Point give an X-ray powder-diffraction pattern similar to that of allanite.

Mantle lithospheric structure and composition incorporate information from geophysical and
xenolith studies constraining the nature of the shallow orogenic mantle.
