Either this article is stupid, or I am, and I don’t rule out myself!

A diamond is carbon, right? Pure carbon? Carbon melts at high temps? How are such high temps generated so far away from the sun?

Couldn’t we say that the Earth is chock full of diamonds? Coal is carbon, just like diamonds.

Has De Beers already claimed the mineral rights?

I’m rich and I didn’t even know it. Now I won’t have to have my gold fillings removed.

DeBeers stakes claim on Uranus and extends their diamond monopoly.

Last I heard carbon did not have a liquid phase, wouldn’t it just go right into gas/vapor?

It’s going to be a special day when we can pull diamonds out of Uranus. Normally you have to go to prison to find a drilling platform capable of such a deed.

I know uranus does not always produce consistent results, sometimes solid, sometimes liquid, but always gas.
