Abstract
An airborne geophysical survey in the eastern part of the Anabar Shield revealed local electrical conductivity anomalies similar to the electrical conductivity anomalies identified in Angola at the Quitubia mining site, with proven kimberlite magmatism and diamond potential. By analogy with the African anomalies, there is assumed their kimberlite nature. The researchers conducted ground-based geological and geophysical verification work on one of the local conductivity anomalies on the Anabar Shield, established its tubular nature and, possibly, kimberlite composition. The authors recommend a set of methods for verifying promising anomalies.
