The largest colored diamond in the history of Russia was mined in Yakutia

As reported on the ALROSA website, it is "the largest colored diamond ever mined in Russia."

Its dimensions are 47x24x22 mm. The age of the gem, according to preliminary estimates, ranges from 120 to 230 million years.

Pavel Vinikhin, director of the BRILLIANTY ALROSA branch (cutting enterprise ALROSA), noted that “such a massive colored diamond is a unique find not only for our country”.

In October 2019, it was reported that in Yakutia, at the Nyurba mining and processing plant, the world's first diamond was mined, in which another diamond moves freely.
