And although scientists confidently declare that at a depth of about 150 – 250 miles of deposits of diamonds lie on the order of several quadrillion tons, get them out of there, you know, just impossible. Even in the foreseeable future, humanity is unlikely to reach such technologies to extract these wealth.
Conducting seismological studies, international group researchers concluded that the speed of sound in the earth’s crust varies depending on the properties of certain breeds. Thanks To this, scientists quite accurately created the lithospheric model of the Earth.
Studies have shown that sound passing through croton roots (rock formations of high density), accelerates due to diamonds that contain these crotons. And although in these stone diamond formations no more than one to two percent (just such the indicator provides an abnormal speed of seismic waves), in it turns out that at a great depth are quadrillion tons of precious mineral.
Of all this, says one of the authors of this Ulrich Fole research, we can conclude that the diamond is not so and exotic fossil material – generally geological its scale is full, that’s just to get it from such a depth we hardly when we can. And when we can, it must be assumed that neither he nor gold will no longer be of such value to humanity, like now. However, humanity itself until then may not to survive, as well as previous other civilizations.
The findings of a group of international scientists were published recently on portal of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, becoming a small sensation not only for scientists, but also for the world the public …
