Trillion Tons of Diamonds below the surface of the earth (earth's crust). But it could be a double-edged knife too, because with the abundance of abundant diamonds it will definitely make the price of diamonds become like the fate of agate.

Not messing around the news the discovery of thousands of trillions of tons of diamonds under the earth was directly informed by a group of international research teams who successfully detected the presence of these super expensive special stones. Quoting from kompas.com, a joint team from the University of California, Harvard scientists, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and scientists from various other universities used sound wave methods to find the diamonds.

In their report in the journal Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, the researchers managed to find 1,000 trillion tons of diamonds scattered far on the earth's surface, and the results of this report are declared accurate.

In a press conference statement, Ulrich Faul researchers from MIT said, ‘This shows that even though diamonds are not ordinary minerals, these precious stones are quite common. But even though the number of diamonds there is very much, we cannot get them.

‘Unfortunately we can't get it, but there are still things, more diamonds there than we have ever thought before, Fa said Faul.

Scientists Use Seismic Data to Find Trillions of Diamonds hidden in the earth's crust

The success of the scientists found trillions of diamonds originated from the research of seismic anomalies that they often do. So they use global data from the US Geological Agency. This data was used to track the origin of an earthquake. Then the results are astounding, in some points of the Earth's crust called cratons, sound waves run faster than expected.

For information, cratons are a stable part of the Bool crust and Earth mantle which is usually found on the inside of tectonic plates. Cratons are usually also less dense and cooler than the part of the Earth that surrounds them. This makes sound waves move faster when passing through them. Although fast, sound waves are usually not as fast as seismic.

To test which material causes the sound waves to travel quickly through the crater, scientists create virtual rock models.

As a result, only one virtual rock shows the same speed as abnormal seismic waves moving through the crater. The stone contains one to two percent of diamonds. Apparently, diamonds are beneficial for the cratons to keep them stable and prevent them from sinking.

The researchers also estimated the number of diamonds in the cratons. To calculate it, researchers assume that the cratonic roots containing diamonds are combined with their total volume throughout the Earth.

Reporting from Sky News, the amount obtained is about 1,000 trillion tons of diamonds spread over 241 kilometers below the earth's surface. The depth of the diamond's location makes it unable to be taken with current technology. The deepest drill ever made by man is Kola Superdeep Borehole in Russia. This hole takes 20 years to reach a depth of 12 kilometers.

Diamond Out

However, the researchers did not want their studies to stop. They also find out how some diamonds can come out of the cratons. They say, volcanic eruptions carry diamonds to the surface of the earth. Volcanoes "create" kimberlite pipes, which can spew magma and diamonds. Scientists say it makes sense if diamonds are found in the cratons. That's because the kimberlite pipe is found on the edge of the cratonic root.

the information is quite valid, it doesn't have to be taken, the fear can be the cause of the disaster or the extinction of this world, because the hordes of greedy humans will surely carry out large-scale excavations to dredge the deepest layers of the earth in order to get thousands of Trillion Tons of Diamonds below the Earth's Surface.
