RE: Al Shefsky..... .9 carrat diamond story
RE: Al Shefsky..... .9 carrat diamond storyI think wilson was just requoting what she read on the thds ! lol
The fact that the 'rock' that gave up the goose and the 0.9 are the same has been discussed on this thd and tickle in particular brought this up I think with a wish for 1000 tonnes from this location.
Now you if have more faith in the sayings becaue Wilson said it , you might start to reread NR's whichy talk about how this rock can outcrop for up to 5 kilometers ! THese #'s were not made up by shefsky as some wild promo thing - they are a-okayed by dr ed walker -the geo whose name is on the line for such comments.

If you look at the NR and results from the 4 samples, you will see that Gen had two types of rock sampled...Mafic and Ultramafic.
I'm not a geologist, but both the .72 and .9 came from the same type of rock so im my mind, this rock does host larger diamonds.
"Both the 0.9 carat diamond from Genesis and 0.72 carat diamond from Cristal were recovered from a suite of rocks that are considered to be a 'primary facies'of diamond-bearing ultramafic volcanic rock"
Should this be the target rock for larger samples...like 1000 tonnes next time??
