ABSTRACT:
A method for separating diamonds from gangue in which discrete units of gangue are passed through a beam of laser radiation capable of causing Raman spectral activation. The scattered radiation is detected and caused to actuate an ejector which separates units of diamond containing gangue from units of non-diamond containing gangue. The units of diamond containing gangue are then collected together.
