Diamonds from Ukraine were studied in terms of their separation into their geological and genetic types, distribution and occurrence, the ages of their host rocks, and their nature in Proterozoic and Neogene age sediments.

Placer diamonds, primarily from Neogene sands, are anomalous in many respects. They are mostly extremely small, pol
