66. Diamonds Make your wager

67. It is commonly believed that diamonds form from coal. Is this true? To what extent? It is commonly believed that diamonds form from coal. Is this true? To what extent?

68. Most diamonds do not form from coal, but rather form from existing carbon in the mantle. They are then forced upwards in kimberlites (an ore which is much younger than the diamonds it contains). A small number of diamonds may form from coal introduced to the mantle via subduction, or from the collision of asteroids with coal, but this represents a small minority of diamonds.
