Arising on olivine serpentine is one of the earliest minerals in the process of hypergene-metasomatic transformation of kimberlites. With lowering of thermobarometric parameters and change of hydrogeochemical conditions towards the increase of minerogenesis system Eh, serpentine successively transforms into saponite. Regulated mixed-layered formation of lizardite-saponite type arises as metastable phase, therewith, in interlayers of autolith kimberlite breccia, characterised by hampered water exchange with host rocks.
