Estimation And Reporting Of Diamonds And Other Gemstones
(criteria listed in other relevant groups also apply to this group;
additional guidelines are available in the ’Guidelines for the Reporting
of Diamond Exploration Results‘ issued by the Diamond Exploration
Best Practices Committee established by the Canadian Institute of
Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum.)
Indicator minerals. • Reports of indicator minerals, such as
chemically/physically distinctive garnet,
ilmenite, chrome spinel and chrome
diopside, should be prepared by a
