how it's made: artificial diamonds
torture, mutilation, civil war, and slavery. for many african nations, diamonds are not a luxury item but a harbinger of violence and death. for years rebel groups have maintained a harsh grip over many of africa's diamond deposits, forcing local residents to toil all day in the mines. proceeds from these "blood diamonds" or "conflict diamonds" are used to buy weapons and fund deadly insurgencies and campaigns of terror.
top quality diamonds at knock down prices? the only catch is: these rocks don't come out of the ground, but are made in a lab. this is the promise offered by a series of recent scientific breakthroughs. "for 200 years people had tried to make diamonds and they had failed" prof. bob hazen, mineral scientist, carnegie trust for most of us, it seems we may soon be able to bejewel ourselves like movie stars. but for de beers, the world's largest diamond trader, could this, one day, be a serious threat? following a dodgy meeting in moscow, retired us army general carter clarke acquired some experimental diamond growing machines, originally destined for the russian military. he created the world's first gem diamond production line, to mass produce highly prized coloured diamonds.

a 603-carat diamond, the biggest found in 13 years and the 15th largest in the world, went on sale in antwerp on wednesday after being uncovered in lesotho in southern africa, the owners said.
"it's about a third bigger than a golf ball," a spokeswoman for the owners said.

45.52 carats surrounded by 16 white diamonds and suspended by a platinum chain bearing 46 more diamonds. the owner hairy winston gave it away as in 1958 because he believed it was cursed.
a material that is harder than diamond has been created by packing together tiny "nanorods" of carbon.
the new material, known as aggregated carbon nanorods (acnr), was created by compressing and heating super-strong carbon molecules called buckyballs or carbon-60. these molecules consist of 60 atoms that interlock in hexagonal or pentagonal shapes and resemble tiny soccer balls.
the super-tough acnr was created by compressing carbon-60 to 200 times normal atmospheric pressure, while simultaneously heating it to 2226°c.
the properties of the resulting material were then measured using a diamond anvil cell at the european synchrotron radiation facility in france. this instrument squeezes a material between two normal diamonds, enabling researchers to study it at high pressure using synchrotron radiation – extremely intense x-rays which reveal the material’s structure.
the researchers found their acnr to be 0.3% denser than ordinary diamond and more resistant to pressure than any other known material.
while an ordinary diamond gets its hardness from the strong molecular bonds between each of its atoms, acnr derives its strength from the fact that it is formed from interlocking nanorods.
"our material actually scratches normal diamonds," says natalia dubrovinskaia, of the university of bayreuth, in germany, who led the research. dubrovinskaia believes the material could offer a wide range of potential industrial applications. as it is stable at very high temperatures, she says it could be better than normal diamond for deep drilling and polishing abrasive materials. she also believes it will be easy to mass produce the super-tough material.
