You Wont Believe These Diamond Inclusions

Insane Diamond!

In an unprecedented find, officials at GIA (The Gemological Institute of America), have unveiled a particular strand of diamond inclusion, that are baffling experts and diamontologists around the globe.

Believed to have been formed inside the diamond during volcanic eruptions (Changbaishan volcanic field of more than 150 cinder cones and lava flows) that come from cave deposits and have familiar attributes that make lead scientists shake their heads in disbelief.

For the black carbon spots (which are commonly found in included diamonds, I1, I2 and I3), have similar markings to chinese letters.

Chinese Letters?

“Almost like writing on the wall”

Says Benjamin Higgins of the GIA laboratory in Carlsbad, California.

“I’ve never seen anything like it. When aligned just right in our state of the art high powered microscopes, you can actually see symbols and letters that are very closely associated with the chinese language…”

Benjamin, a GIA certified instructor since 1972, also states that the markings date as far back as the stone age, saying:

“Cave drawings might have contributed towards their unique characteristics.”

Benjamin shows the diamond magnified at 20x to better appreciate the scope of the inclusions, as shown below…

For comparison, he also shows the chinese letters they represent (bottom right corner).

“It’s uncanny and quite frankly a phenomenon.”

He goes onto say that he’s seen imperfections that resemble faces, or the english alphabet before, but never a full sentence or phrase.

GIA’s official statement is that:

“This is only the tip of the iceberg, since this new volcanic eruption has brought hundreds and thousands of similar carbon to the surface of the earth, it could literally change the way that we see inclusions.”

What does this all mean to the plotting and inscriptions normally found on diamonds? It could change the way that diamonds are graded!

Which is astounding!

Benjamin Higgins quotes:

“Now diamonds can be identified by a unique phrase transcribed millions of years ago.”

For the diamond industry, it’s mind boggling. Prices for such unique finds are said to skyrocket and become the fastest selling stones to date.

So don’t expect these natural diamonds to stay on the market long.

Happy April Fools everyone!

Cheers! :)
