Three areas of manifestation of kimberlite and lamproite magmatism (primary sources of diamonds) have been identified on the territory of Ukraine - the north of the Volyn-Podilsky plate, the northwestern and central parts of the Ukrainian crystalline shield, and the Azov massif and the zone of its articulation with the Donetsk basin.
The real prospects for discovering industrial diamonds are associated with metamorphosed conglomerates, primarily the Bilokorovytska paleodepression, where diamond grains of kimberlite genesis in the 4+2 millimeter class have already been identified.
In addition to the above areas, there are also real prospects for discovering industrial diamonds based on a complex of geological and geophysical data in other areas, but specialized exploration work to discover these precious stones requires attracting significant amounts of investment.
