The regional geology of north-eastern Angola comprises the Kasai Craton basement which is overlain by Cretaceous to recent sediments. Diamond bearing units and kimberlites The primary source of diamonds on the Kasai Craton is the kimberlite intrusions which were emplaced in the middle to late Cretaceous, and are dated at about 120 million years. The craton is host to at least 700 known kimberlites, the greatest concentration of kimberlite bodies known worldwide, many of which are associated with southwest-northeast striking tectonic lineaments of the Lucapa Trend; and have been subdivided into seven kimberlite districts. Several of these kimberlites are known to be diamondiferous to a greater or lesser degree, although by far the majority have yet to be prospected.
