A mining company's search for precious stones in Finland has made progress after discovering signs of diamond-bearing kimberlite in the same area where a rare pale green diamond was previously found. The company's latest analysis suggests the presence of a diamond stability field, indicating the likelihood of a diamond source. This discovery could be significant as colored diamonds, especially green diamonds, fetch higher prices than clear diamonds. The company has already applied for a mining permit to develop the deposit, which contains a significant percentage of pink diamonds and could potentially become Europe's first diamond mine outside Russia.
