Northern Alberta kimberlite province maar-style diatremes that have a vertical-walled volcanic crater of explosive origin, surrounded by a low rim of ejecta. Pyroclastic fall and surge are the two volcanic mechanisms of deposition. There are also deposits formed by hydraulic reworking and resedimentation of material from tephra cones and/or extra-crater fall and surge deposits. The NAKP volcanics, including the ML pipes, contain abundant lapilli and olivine supported in a fine-grained groundmass.
