Diamonds have been evolving in this world for millions of years. Some of them catch our eye with their brilliance.
These are considered to be manifestations of lasting love. They are considered a symbol of prosperity and luxury.
In ancient times, they were considered useful. Their use is said to give strength. It is also believed to protect against enemies, evil spirits and nightmares.
There is a reference in the Vedas to diamonds in India. They are also considered to be the favorite of the Hindu gods.
The ‘Diamond Sutra’ of Buddhism, beginning in AD 868, describes it as being able to break free from worldly myths and shed light on the real and eternal.
Diamond has a very special place in the ancient Greek tradition. The Greeks considered them to be the tears of God and pieces of stars falling from the sky.
The most amazing thing about diamonds is that their authenticity is extraordinary. The beliefs associated with it are also unique.
Why is diamond called “fantasy”?
The basis of life is the carbon element that causes the formation of diamonds. Diamonds gain strength only in the most difficult environments. They have the ability to withstand extreme stress in the environment in which they form. With the right combination of hydrogen and temperature, it can fly off as carbon dioxide.
Diamonds are uniquely shiny and shiny. But it is very difficult. They are excellent thermal conductors. Their shape is also very small due to the temperature. It is not affected by alkaline and acidic chemicals. It becomes glassy due to the deep ultraviolet rays. It is one of the few substances that has a negative electronegativity.
They occur naturally in very few places on earth. They form in the upper two layers of the earth’s crust or are formed by the impact of meteorites.
Diamonds come to the surface of the earth with great explosiveness. These diamonds are the biggest explosion in history. The bases of some of the volcanoes created by these eruptions sank deep into the earth.
Not all diamonds are like glass. Some are light yellow and some are brown.
Some diamonds come in many colors. They are very rare. Red, blue and green diamonds are very rare. Orange, yellow and slightly yellowish green diamonds are very easy to find.
But once the diamonds are formed, their crystal structure can safely hold and hold any metal. According to scientists, it is a mineral found on the Earth’s dense surface. At the same time, it reveals conditions several miles below the surface of the earth. The blue diamond or blue diamond is very special in this category.
Holiness has no equal
Most of the diamonds in our world are formed at a depth of 150 km underground.
Blue diamonds form about four times the depth of the Earth’s crust. This is according to a study released in 2018.
Diamonds, like diamonds, are very expensive and difficult to use in scientific research, says Evan Smith, a geologist at the American Geological Institute. It is noteworthy that Smith was the primary author of this study.
Diamonds are not only precious but also pure. It is unlikely to be contaminated. Apart from diamond, no other metal or mineral formed during its formation is found in it.
This property of diamonds allows scientists to provide more information about it.
Although scientists have succeeded in analyzing 46 blue diamonds, there are some things in it. They believe it formed at a depth of 410 to 660 km from the earth.
From some specimens of these diamonds, it is clear that they formed at a depth of 660 km, i.e. at the very bottom.
In doing so, these diamonds have been shown to act as time capsules. That is, they provide a lot of rare information that is not known about time.
In an interview with BBC Reel Nature, George Harlow, an observer and geologist at the American Museum of Gem and Mineral Foam, said: “We can not go deep into the earth, where diamonds are formed.
Blue Diamond: The Missing Puzzle
The Blue Diamond is a mystery in history. It is not yet known why diamonds have such beautiful colors.
Eventually it was found to contain boron. It is a metalloid chemical capable of penetrating into the crystal lattice contained in the diamond formation.
But after unraveling the mystery, a mystery has arisen.
When diamonds are formed in the earth’s crust and boron is formed in its layers, it is a question of where this boron came from.
The answer to this geochemical mystery also gives clues about the depths of the earth.
This was stated by a research team led by Smith. Boron is said to have gone from the surface of the ocean to the deepest layer of the earth. This phenomenon occurs when its tectonic plates rub against each other. This process is called reduction
Diamond absorbs water-rich minerals and spreads to the bottom of the deep ocean. It even reaches the bottom of the ocean.
The discovery of boron residues found in ever-born diamonds from the Earth’s surface indicates that the aquatic minerals are moving deeper into the Earth’s deeper layers than previously thought. This indicates the possibility of different depths of water circulation.
Blue diamonds are not only beautiful and rare, they are also very interesting and they teach a lot about our planet, says Harlow.
