Only about 2% of the world's diamonds belong to this type. The presence of such diamonds in the field may indicate a possible future discoveries of large diamonds.
"Type IIa diamond with mesh MSC associated with the other three diamonds and ilmenite, which contains traces of the reaction, as well as the mantle Xenoliths and fresh olivine angular found on area area 0.32 square kilometers." - say in Pangolin.
"Three kimberlite indicator minerals may indicate a close occurrence of diamondiferous rocks" - continue in the company.
