It is a type of ultra-mafic, different from kimberlite, I
think is named Orangeite after(Orange Free State) a province
in South Africa. There is a rock called humpty dumptyite
(I'm not kidding)!

Mitchell is for academics only, not exploration people, and
he splits hairs very fine, too fine to be of any use to an explorationist. His words in the mouth of a promoter mean
they are scared and need to rely on big words, he might as
well quote from Immanueal Kant as Mitchell.
