VOLATILES AROUND TWO DIMENSIONAL DEFECT STRUCTURES AS INDICATED BY MICRO DIAMONDS IN DECOMPRESSION CRACKS

New evidence exist that micro diamonds do not only form at high pressure and under high temperature conditions in the diamond window, but can also be synthesized by polycondensation of light carbon-bearing molecules at medium to low pressure conditions under favourable thermodynamic, stoichiometric...
