Scientists from the University of Tokyo have found a groundbreaking new approach to synthesize diamonds that offers ...

A University of Tokyo team has turned organic molecules into nanodiamonds using electron beams, overturning decades of assumptions about beam damage. Their discovery could transform materials science ...

One of the largest diamond mining companies, responsible for 30% of global diamond mining, has proved a negative CO₂ foo ...

They don’t make them like they used to — at all. It can take natural diamonds over three billion years to grow, but researchers in a South Korean lab have successfully fabricated the precious stones ...

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

Buying a diamond is an emotional moment. Whether it’s for an engagement ring, a Diwali gift, or simply a treat-yourself ...

Diamonds in nature famously form under immense pressure in Earth’s mantle. But a new laboratory technique allows diamonds to skip the squeeze. The most common method for producing synthetic diamonds, ...

A pair of diamonds that formed hundreds of kilometers deep in Earth’s malleable mantle both contain specks of materials that form in completely opposing chemical environments—a combination so unusual ...

Extreme geological events, like the kind that form mountains, can ‘deform’ a diamond, giving some their unique colors, experts said.

Diamonds form deep within the Earth's mantle, around 250 kilometers below the surface, where immense pressure (up to 10 GPa) and temperatures (around 2,200 °C) compress carbon into diamonds over ...

It’s raining diamonds! Well, it’s raining diamonds on other planets at least, including some in our Solar System. And scientists recently discovered that the conditions needed to create this wild ...
