Where are the diamonds found?

Answer 1

The mineral diamond is found on earth where volcanic pipes have blasted it to the surface from where it is formed, deep within the earth's mantel. Diamonds have been found in India, Africa -- several countries -- Brazil, Canada, Australia and even in the United States.

Geologists find 'trace minerals', including kimberlite, that may indicate -- about one in 200 times -- that diamonds are included in the volcanic situation.

When water flows over the top of a diamond-producing volcanic pipe and tumbles diamond stones along, diamonds can be found in riverbeds, or at the mouths of rivers as they empty into salt water.

When a productive volcanic pipe is located, the land owner may choose to mine the area for diamonds.

Answer 2

Diamonds are found in many localities, both overseas and in the US. While most of the gemstone grade diamonds do come from South Africa, diamonds are found everywhere but in Europe and Antarctica. One of the most surprising areas to find diamonds are in North America: the United States and Canada.

Diamonds are found on continents and are associated with past volcanic activity. Cratons, which are the oldest parts of a continent, are especially favorable for hosting diamonds because they are older than the newer crust.

Answer 3

Diamonds are found on the surface of the earth, at the tops of volcanic pipes, which erupt them to the surface.

Diamonds are also found in riverbeds that flow over these pipes, and the running water tumbles the diamonds loose from the kimbrlite that was erupted with them. As well, diamonds are found at the mouths of rivers as they empty into the sea. These are called alluvial diamonds.

Diamonds are found on every continent on earth, except Antarctica and Europe.

Answer 4

Diamonds are primarily found in a few countries like Russia, Botswana, Canada, and Australia. They are often discovered deep within the Earth's mantle and brought to the surface through volcanic activity or extracted through mining operations.

Answer 5

Natural diamonds are formed deep within the earth's mantle, and have erupted through volcanic pipes on every continent except Europe and Antarctica.

Answer 6

Diamonds are abundantly found in South Africa.

Answer 7

Diamonds are found on every continent on earth, except Europe and Antarctica.

Answer 8

Diamonds are found in volcanic pipes that erupt them together with other minerals to the earth's surface. Volcanic pipes are found on every continent except Antarctica and Europe.

Answer 9

they are most found in south Africa
