On our moon there’s roughly 300,000 craters of 1 km or larger (of mostly craters within craters, within craters). Earth has 13.5 times the surface area plus a whole lot more gravity for attracting stuff. There should be lots of local carbonado, but if not for being impacted we'd have very little, whereas the naked surface of our physically dark moon should be covered in a blanket of carbonado and otherwise shards of dark basalt worth 3.5+ g/cm3. http://groups.google.com/groups/search http://translate.google.com/# Brad Guth, Brad_Guth, Brad.Guth, BradGuth, BG / “Guth Usenet” |

Ok but I have like 2 rings I bought for total less than a hundred bucks Then perhaps those rings are not of black diamond, unless you bought them from an idiot that didn't know the difference between fused basalt and true carbonado. Large volumes of carbonado (aka black diamond) could make super-strong tether fibers of any continuous length. Extremely large TBMs could use carbonado tipped cutting wheels. http://groups.google.com/groups/search http://translate.google.com/# Brad Guth, Brad_Guth, Brad.Guth, BradGuth, BG / “Guth Usenet” |

Those "8 loose stones" could all come from one of my smaller raw carbonado stones. My cache of carbonado looks and measures exactly like this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbonado ( it's not http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthracite ) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_D...ambiguation%29 http://famousdiamonds.tripod.com/spi...nodiamond.html What's the largest uncut black diamond of carbonado you've ever seen or heard of? |
