Most of the minerals listed here - especially the native elements, the sulphides, the halides and the high-pressure minerals (e.g. coesite) - were found as microscopic inclusions in diamond. The others have been reported as constituents of the kimberlites.

The Shengli No. 1 kimberlite pipe in the Changmazhuang rock belt is the highest ore-bearing deposit in the Mengyin area, and the diamond grade is generally 100–800 mg/m3. The lithology of the Shengli No. 1 kimberlite pipe is mainly porphyritic kimberlite, with a relatively high content of pyrope.
