Call it the Soviet Union's most valuable cold war secret. This past
weekend, Russia declassified the existence of what could very well be
the richest diamond field in existence, located in the depths of a
62-mile diameter
asteroid crater known as
Popigai Astroblem in Siberia.

"Of course, a diamond discovery of this magnitude is almost sure to have a serious downward impact in the per-karat price should full-scale mining operations ever begin." - I hope they do it.
