From filmtracks.com, regarding the "Blood Diamond" soundtrack:

...the most interesting observation about the music for Blood Diamond is that it sounds in many parts like a true Hans Zimmer score.
...
While the primary theme resembles the qualities of a tribal song, it also follows stereotypical, minor key progressions of a very basic Media Ventures theme. Howard often hands this theme to a unified string section, furthering the connection.

Yep...it had me fooled for sure.
