A New Study Says, There are Quadrillion Tons of Diamonds Lying Right Beneath Your Feet

One of the most valuable stones ever discovered by humans. Diamonds, which can quickly make any person rich overnight. If he finds the right quality and quantity of it. Just a small amount would get you decent money. However, according to a discovery. You will not see just a tiny amount. However, a quadrillion tons of it. The only problem is that you will never be able to reach it. Even though its right under your feet, lying deep inside the earth.

 

 

What do researchers say?

Researchers from MIT have discovered, with the help of seismic waves flowing through the Earth. They said that there is quadrillion tons of diamonds below the earth surface. The only problem is, it is so beneath the surface that no human has ever reached so deep. With the data, they already had about seismic waves. They took a closer look at seismograph. From events like an earthquake. Researchers who found the change in speed of sound waves. While traveling below the surface. Thye came to the only possible decision. That the sound wave traveled through a large deposit of diamonds below the surface.

Why can not we dig it up?

 

 

Now, the question raised. If there is so much diamond why can’t we dig it up? Well, according to them the diamond is deposited at a depth of 90 to 150 meters. Which is way more than any human has ever been able to reach. The researchers said it’s not possible for anyone. At least till now to be able to dig that deep. So that they could mine the large deposit of Diamonds. Which they found is lying beneath the surface.

What do experts say?

Researchers made a statement with respect to the finding. They said,
“This shows that diamond is not perhaps this exotic mineral, but on the [geological] scale of things, it’s relatively common,” Ulrich Faul of MIT’s Department of Earth, Atmospheric, and Planetary Sciences explains. “We can’t get at them, but still, there is much more diamond there than we have ever thought before.”

 

Though, maybe not now. However, surely someday humans may reach the diamonds.
