1t has long been known that dia-
monds, especially the class known as
''rOse diamonds" are likely. to explode
If subjected only to what would seem a
very ordinary degree of heat, such as
strong rays from the sun, etc. 1t is
now believed that the explosions are
the result of the rapid expansion OF
certain volatile liquids inclOsed in cavi-
ties near the center of these precious
stones. \ great many diamonds, even
though cut mounted and worn as gems
Of perfection. are still in an unfinished
conditlon-that is the liquid drop from
which the stone is being formed has
not as yet deposited all Of its pure
crystals of carbon" These movable
drops may occasionally be seen with
the naked eye.
When this is the case. strong mi
croscope will give the drop the appear
ance of bubble in he fluid of car
penter's level 1t is also highly prob
able that besides the liquid mentioned
these cavities may contain gases under
great tension. This being the case,
one may readily comprehend how a
very small amount of heat would
cause the liquid and gas to expand to
such degree that the diamond would
give way with all the characteristics
Of miniatur explosion.
