Good morning ma'am. I'm from the Philippines. I have a raw black diamond pass by our great grandfather from the 17th century. How can I send you the picture so you could see the authenticity of the stone. Thanks so much.
Hello i have read that there are carbonados that has a specific gravity of 2.6g/cm³ because of its porosity, the ceo of gem-a it was said by alan hart, is this a fact and truth?
Though I'm a gemmologist, I'm not a mineralogist, so the word of a very experienced mineralogist such as Alan would be a great one to listen to! He really knows his minerals.
Ang Taon ay 1983 sa aming bahay sa bulacan; ako ay 13 anyos palang nuon; isang african ang bumisita sa aming bahay; hinahanap ang aking Ama; napag-alaman ko base sa kwento ng aking Ama ang african ay kanyang kaibigan; ang african ay matanda na nasa 60+ pataas na; may dala syang bag; inilabas nya ang laman ng kanyang bag na nakabalot din sa tela at ibinigay sa aking Ama; nang buksan ng aking Ama ang tela ay tumbad ang isang malaking bato na sobrang itim at malaki ito nasa 2 kilos mahigit ang tantiya ko...Sabi ng aking Ama sa african Anu ito? Uling? Sabi ng african hindi yan uling; yan ay isang uri ng itim na diamante sabi nya; Sa ngayon yan ay walang halaga; pero darating ang araw na yan ibinigay ko sayo ay magkakaroon ng malaking halaga; itago mo yan dahil ako ay babalik na sa africa sabi nung african sa Ama ko... Bumalik ang african sa kanilang bansa mula 1983 hanggang 2015 ay wala na ako balita sa african na nagbigay sa aking Ama ng malaking bato na kulay itim na parang uling; Taong 2015 din namatay din ang aking Ama; naiwan sa akin ang kanyang mga gamit at lumang baol...Taong 2017-18 naglinis ako ng gamit ng aking Ama at nakita ko ang bag na pinaglagyan ng itim na bato na parang uling na ibinigay ng african sa aking Ama; naalala ko na lahat; Gamit ang internet nag imbistiga ako kung ito ba ay itim na diamante; Base sa aking pag-aaral at pag alam ng malalim lalo ko napagtanto na tunay at tutuo ang sinasabi ng african sa aking Ama; Nag-anunsiyo ako sa social media sa facebook at youtube nagtatanung kung ang itim na bato na parang uling ay isang itim na diamante; inalam ko mabuti ito...at masusing pinag-aralan... Taong 2023 december 31 Ito ay sinuri ng isang gemologist na kanyang sinabi na ito ay: Natural,not glass; crystalline content Specific gravity 2.682g/cm³ The Stone so far shows the refraction characteristics of a diamond Trigons in the exterior Metallic polished interior
Sacrificing the ideal cut to make it all 5s goes to show they planned on marketing the hell out of this. _maybe_ from space, and it's a billion years old! Even though lots of rocks are billions of years old.
The must have used a LASER to cut it, but to polish it, that was likely the big challenge. I bet its surface, if you could look at it from up close, is rather porous. A to the amorphous carbon question: this is a pretty decent explanation i found: in mineralogy, amorphous carbon is the name used for coal, carbide-derived carbon, and other impure forms of carbon..
I would love to. Would you know how to get hold of him? I would love to see it too! I was going to head to Sotheby's Tuesday to have a gander but couldn't in the end 🙃
Thankyou for the Clarification on the ENGIMA DIAMOND . I believe I have a ENGIMA Diamond but how can I confirm that this is a ENGIMA DIAMOND . Kindly inform or iam willing to send pictures .
I have stone almost same size of enigma but its surprising and much more hevier than the enigma diamon. its has a fusion crust and regmalympst. No streak And also attract to magnet .Its 1010 carats.

Hello! Best way is SG :)
Sacrificing the ideal cut to make it all 5s goes to show they planned on marketing the hell out of this. _maybe_ from space, and it's a billion years old! Even though lots of rocks are billions of years old.

A to the amorphous carbon question: this is a pretty decent explanation i found: in mineralogy, amorphous carbon is the name used for coal, carbide-derived carbon, and other impure forms of carbon..
I had a good wonder about this Dario! Quite possibly! Laser's we're around in the early 2000s, ey? Either that or they had it on a wheel for HOURS
Thank you so much for your amorphous carbon explanation. Coal! That certainly helps me understand a little better. Thank you 🙏
