Abstract
Minerals associated with diamond source rocks found in glacial sediments indicate presence of a kimberlite. To a certain extent it also gives an evaluation of the potential presence of diamonds. Regional ice advance and retreat pattern knowledge, combined with geophysical analysis, help to find the kimberlites that are the rock formations where diamonds can be found. This map shows the location of surficial materials and gives the general direction of ice flow.
