Generally diamonds that will not fit through a screen .5 mm or 1.0 mm square or exceeding 1 mm in any dimension, depending on whose standards you use, are considered macrodiamonds.
Macrodiamonds are generally difficult to find outside of significant sample material. If you are poking around and bump into a 3.5mm macrodiamond it would generally mean that you are close to a significantly diamondiferous source.
Recently some people in the diamond hunt have theorized that the best pipes in the NWT may have a very subtle signature and really not stand out much. Apparently there are several weak mag signatures towards the NE part of Snap Lake if I remember right.
One of the best people to speak to about this is Vaughn who may be located on the Southernera thread.
