Beautifully shining diamonds. This gem, which is mainly used for wedding rings, is one of the most popular gems for women. But there are not many people who know the secrets hidden in diamonds. If you know the secret today, the diamonds will look different from the advertising copy, meaning "eternal love." The most common way to lay your hands on a diamond is probably through a wedding or engagement ring. A less glamorous way is through the so called estate jewelry , which are usually inherited or found in the estate of the faded person. In the end it is unimportant where you did get one they all share the same secrets:
1. Hardness of diamond (hardness)
Diamond abrasives (powder) are not made of necklaces or rings. Diamond is a high hardness ore and is also used to make tools such as saw blades. These processed blades can cut rocks, bricks and concrete. In addition, it has high heat and electric conductivity, so it is used in power plant equipment, transistors, and LED materials.
2. The image and the scarcity that stimulate the illusion of the consumer
The annual diamond market is worth $ 60 billion. For American men, 90% choose diamonds as wedding rings. Why are diamonds so popular? In the early 20th century, the De Beers group commercialized the ore and put it on the world market.
In August 2013, the Washington Post published the CEO's "Diamond Fake" in a pricing research firm. According to this article, the price of diamonds includes aesthetic value as well as the company's sophisticated marketing strategy, design patent fees, and added 'added value' through promotions. These factors accounted for more than half of the stone value.
Market prices are also determined by De Beers' supply controls. The common sense common in common, such as 'a wedding ring diamond' and 'your salary for one or two months at a time' was also the marketing strategy of the company at first, the Washington Post reported.
3. Diamond caused by asteroid collision
There is a crater of about 100 km in diameter in the Krasnoyarsk region of Central Russia. The crater is caused by an asteroid collision, and it is known that diamond worth $ 1 trillion is buried. It is estimated to be more than the total reserves of diamond lakes all over the world. But diamonds here are not good quality and are mostly used as abrasives for drills and knives.
4. Memorial diamond made of human carbon
In the human body, diamond can be made through carbon extraction. A company in the Argentine region of Switzerland produces diamonds from ash and hair. These diamonds are colorless to blue and the difference in carbon determines the color.
Artificial synthetic synthetic diamonds are very similar to natural diamonds. In addition, synthetic diamond gemstones are attracting attention in terms of reducing manufacturing costs. This poses a serious threat to the industry handling natural diamonds.
5. Diamond Planet
In addition to the planet, there is a diamond-rich planet. Yale University scientists have claimed that the star named 'Cancer 55 e' is a 'diamond planet'. The diameter of this planet is about twice that of the earth, and the mass is 7.8 times.
Studies have shown that there is a layer of diamond inside the planet. The reserves are estimated to be one third of the planet, three times as large as the Earth.
