   its impossible for x-rays to "detect" it.

   
   

   X-rays penetrate objects and reveal information about its contents. Using two X-ray spectra, you can identify different materials. And now, a new algorithm is making it possible to find diamonds in the rock.

   It's actually the biggest diamond in the world, since the Cullinan Diamond was cut up.

   
   At 15k/ carat it might sell for around 37.5 Million USD if it is sold as a whole. take that with a grain of salt, I think that the per carat figure is for cut diamonds.

   The diamond was detected with the use of Lucara's Mega Diamond Recovery X-ray technology, said Mr Lamb.
