What type of inclusion is this?

I already have this diamond and it’s amazing but I’m wondering what the inclusions are circled in blue. Are they chips?

There should be a ‘key to symbol on the grading report.

It’s IGI certified and there’s no key.

Red symbols are internal inclusions. Chips and other external ones are green. Chips would typically also be along the girdle or facet junctions.

In GIA lingo, a red 'v' is a chip. I haven't seen an IGI list, even on their website. As 0-0-0 points out, that would be a very unusual arrangement for chips.

Here's what GIA has to say about them:

Probably "growth remnants" - they could be tiny bits of metallic flash from the growth chamber.
HPHT, I presume?
