Explanation

According to the Gemological Institute of America, India was the world's only source of diamonds until 1896 when diamonds were discovered in other regions. India's diamond mines (particularly Golconda) were the primary global source for centuries. 1860 and 1802 are too early, 1760 is far too early.
