"Swiss Breakthrough Simplifies Diamond Hunting with Olivine Discovery"

TL;DR Summary
A new discovery has made finding diamonds easier by linking the composition of olivine, a less sought-after gem, to the presence of diamonds. Olivine with higher magnesium concentrations indicates the likelihood of diamonds nearby, while high iron concentrations suggest the absence of diamonds due to geological processes. This method, supported by De Beers, simplifies the search for diamonds and provides insight into why previous methods worked.
