"Swiss Breakthrough Aids Diamond Hunters"
Swiss geologists from ETH Zurich and the University of Melbourne have discovered that the composition of the mineral olivine in rocks can indicate the presence of diamonds, with higher magnesium content indicating a higher likelihood of diamonds. This breakthrough could significantly simplify the search for diamonds, which traditionally involves identifying the rare kimberlite rock before beginning the complex process of diamond detection. The new method is faster and has already been adopted by some companies.
