I would guess that molten carbon , if released to the surface and cooled, would just solidify to graphite. but then again I am not a carbophobe.

The molten carbon would have to be cooled in an oxygen free environment. Otherwise, it would react with the oxygen and form carbon dioxide. Molten carbon is hot. - at least 6422 degrees Fahrenheit.
