The world's third diamond trade centre was neither surprised nor disturbed by reports from Moscow today that a diamond field had been found in Yakutia.

The director of A Leading diamond company Mr L. Asscher, suggested that Soviet geologist DI Shcherbakov's announcement appeared to be a "polishing up" of Marshal Bulganin's statement.
