Researchers may have identified the exact origin of the Hope Diamond
Researchers may have identified the true origin of renowned Golconda diamonds like the Hope Diamond and Koh-i-noor, suggesting they may have come from a volcanic outcrop nearly 200 miles away from where they were mined. These flawless gemstones are prized for their clarity and large size, with the Koh-i-noor weighing 105.60 carats and the Hope Diamond, held at the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C. weighing 45.52 carats.
New research points to the Wajrakarur kimberlite field in Andhra Pradesh as a potential source, although uncertainties remain due to the deeper formation of these diamonds in the mantle. The study by geoscientists at Savitribai Phule Pune University utilized chemical signatures and remote-sensing data to trace a possible ancient river channel that transported these precious stones. The mystery surrounding the Golconda diamonds, steeped in colonialism and controversy, adds to their allure and cultural significance.
