Sekameng

Lesotho
Gravity is More than a Complementary Tool
 

The Sekameng area of Lesotho is known for its kimberlite pipes intruding basalt.

A simplified gravity profile shows a negative anomaly coinciding with the known pipe.

A second anomaly reveals the presence of a buried kimberlite.

Subsequent drilling at the western boundary of the Satellite pipe has confirmed the presence of this pipe.
