Diamonds from the Rio Sorriso placer in Juina area, Mato Grosso State, Brazil, contain mineral inclusions of ferropericlase associated with MgSiO3, CaSiO3, magnesite, merrillite, and other minerals. The diamonds are resolved into two distinct genetic compositional groups: (1) protogenetic, high-Ni low-Fe (Ni = 8270–10,660 ppm; mg# 0.756–0.842) ferropericlases, (2) syngenetic, low-Ni high-Fe 600...
