This book examines and summarizes data on more than 40,000 diamonds
from deposits in Russia's diamondiferous Arkhangelsk province. The
geological data of diamond deposits includes the geological
setting, ore body morphology and mineral composition. Investigation
techniques employed include: Color Cathode Luminescence, Fourier
Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, Electron Paramagnetic Resonance,
Raman Spectroscopy, and Carbon Isotopy. The book provides a full
description of the diamond morphology. The problems of a potential
(mantle) diamond grade for deposits are considered, depending on
the physical and chemical conditions involved in the genesis and
growth of diamond crystals. Further, there can be a significant
impact on the productivity of bodies and the properties of diamonds
during post-crystallization metasomatic processes. In this book,
the authors propose a diamond crystallization model for changes in
diamond crystals within mantle metasomatic transformations, and
identify the factors affecting the growth and dissolution of
diamonds in the mantle. In addition, they describe the complex
evolution of kimberlite from the mantle up to the Earth's surface.
All of these factors affect the quality and quantity of diamonds in
a particular diamond deposit, providing the basis for identifying
optimal technological mining processes.
