Enough to Supply the Global Diamond Market for 3,000 Years
Russia has just declassified a secret it has been keeping for 40 years: it is sitting on trillions of carats of diamonds, enough to supply the global diamond market for 3,000 years.
The diamonds are “twice as hard” as normal, making them ideal for industrial applications, such as diamond saws.
We’ve previously discussed an even bigger stash of diamonds which may eventually flood the markets: one which is 10 billion trillion trillion carats.
