Abstract

Diamonds of the upper deposit of the Nyurbinsky placer have been studied. Mineralogical and optical-spectroscopic characteristics of diamonds from deposits of Ukugut suite are shown. Location patterns of diamonds with certain placer parameters have been revealed. The zonal mode of distribution for Ukugut suite diamond properties is established due to concentration peculiarities of material from different primary sources. At the same time, signs of crystal sorting as a result of sedimentation processes were recorded.
