Seemingly contradictory materials are trapped together in two glittering diamonds from South Africa, shedding light on how ...

These diamonds acted as “tiny time capsules,” preserving a rare snapshot of deep Earth processes. “This is a rare snapshot of mantle chemistry in action,” said Yaakov Weiss, the study’s lead author.

Diamonds are made out of carbon — highly organized carbon, that is. Geologists are still guessing how diamonds formed in the Earth from 1 billion to 3 billion years ago.

The analysis of ancient, superdeep diamonds dug up from mines in Brazil and Western Africa, has exposed new processes of how continents evolved and moved during the early evolution of complex life on ...

Diamonds present at the birth of the Okavango Delta have a lasting connection to this landscape and are playing a unique role in its conservation today.

Australian researchers made an intriguing announcement, claiming to have unveiled the elusive secret behind pink diamonds, renowned for their rarity and exquisite allure. This revelation could pave ...

A study found that Australia's tectonic plates stretched, creating large deposits of pink diamonds. Pink diamonds are made under extreme pressure when two continents collide. The scientists hope that ...

Formed millions to billions of years ago, diamonds can shine light into the darkest and oldest parts of the Earth's mantle. The analysis of ancient, superdeep diamonds dug up from mines in Brazil and ...
