First U-Pb age of detrital zircons from sandstones of the upper Emsian Takaty formation of the western Urals with regard to the problem of primary sources of the Uralian diamond Placers
Several alternative points of view currently exist on the origin of the primary sources of diamonds from the Cenozoic Western Urals placers. Some researchers suppose that their economic diamond resource potential is related to diamonds from tuffisitic facies of the mantle kimberlites-lamproites or i...

Several alternative points of view currently exist on the origin of the primary sources of diamonds from the Cenozoic Western Urals placers.

Other researchers suggest that diamonds originated from the eroded sandstones of the Upper Emsian Takaty Formation of the Lower Devonian, which represents ancient (fossil) placers or intermediate reservoirs. It is assumed that these reservoirs collected diamonds from worn kimberlite bodies, which were located in the Urals or on the East European platform (EEP).
