Abstract
The analytical research has yielded differences in composition of mineral species on the surface of natural diamonds of hyperaltered kimberlites under conditions of diamond ore occurrence and processing. The classification of the mineral species is based on the mineral origin, properties and attachment on the diamond crystal surf.
