Where are diamond mines located in India?

Answer 1

Landak & Golconda!!

Diamonds were discovered in India during the 4th century B.C., and India was one of the first countries to mine the gem. India's diamonds were prized for their size and beauty for hundreds of years. Indian diamonds were mined in numerous locations that included Borneo, Golconda, Hindostan, Landak and Raolconda. The diamonds from Landak were especially prized for their brilliance. Some of India's most prized diamonds are known as the "diamonds of Golconda" and the most famous Indian stones include the Hope Diamond, the Koh-i-Noor Diamond, the Orlov Diamond, and the Sanc Diamond. The Darya-i-Nur (Sea of Light) diamond weighed 186 carats and was owned by the Nadir Shah of Persia after it was plundered from India..

Answer 5

The occurrence of diamonds in India is almost entirely confined to the eastern side of the Deccan plateau. The southern boundary of the region in which diamonds have been found is the river Penner in latitude 14º N.; from this river the diamond localities form a frequently interrupted line running northwards on the east side of the Deccan plateau, crossing the Kistna, Godavari and Mahanadi rivers, and reaching the southern tributaries of the Lower Ganges in Bengal, between the rivers Son and Khan, in latitude 25º N. Any other diamond localities outside the area just marked out are unimportant, and the reports concerning them are often uncertain. In general, many of the reported localities for diamond are doubtful, they're being no exact and reliable information respecting them, or they are simply based on the existence of old mines.

Answer 6

Both geekteacher1 and SAHIL have taken their excerpts from the same source. Unfortunately, it is far from accurate. For example, Borneo is not a part of India, Hindostan is not a place in India but the Indian name for India.

thanneermalai has given a generalised location of diamond occurrences, and not mines.
The most active diamond mines in India are the Panna Group of Mines in Madhya Pradesh.

Several types of mines can be found around the world. Mines that might be considered the world's deepest are either open-pit or vertical shaft mines. Vertical shaft mines hold the record for being the deepest mines in the world. Most are located in South Africa due to its abundance of diamond and gold deposits. As of 2003 the deepest mine is the East Rand(South Africa) mine at 3585 meters, but as technology improves and the search for natural resources continues many mines are constantly being deepened. In the next few years, the Western Deep mine will reach 5 km. Kolar Gold Fields (KGF) is one of the major gold mines in India and is located in the Kolar district in Karnataka, close to the city of Bangalore. The mine is considered the world's second deepest gold mine.
