FYI, I see TWG has put up a nice 15 page slide show re. their Ungava diamonds discovery:
twingold.com
-Gives area location, dimensions, images of dyke material, how dykes come in clusters, gravity and magnetics maps, more tremendous pictures of the vertical exposed dykes, a comparison-to-WSP graphic, explanation as to what dykes are/ how they're formed, other diamond co. info, etc.
Nice presentation!

JP, I posted lots about dykes at the following link, if you do want to learn more:
https://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=4967761
(I quoted/ referenced/ linked other knowledgable sources of course!)
--Note that the link there to Notes on Kimberlite Fissures versus Pipes is now dead (I posted that in June/98), but here is an active link to the same write-up:
pathcom.com
- very informative.
