here is an outtake from an earlier piece demonstrating that Meteor impacts may create diamonds. All blasts have different potentials....Popigai was mighty big......

Remember to study Sudbury event in Canada, many near surface industrial and black nano diamonds.

A flashy claim from Russian scientists, that a Siberian meteorite crater holds "trillions of carats" of diamonds, may be far-fetched but it's not outside the realm of scientific possibility. Over the weekend, scientists in Moscow divulged that the 62-mile (100-kilometer)-wide Popigai Astroblem crater harbors a peerlessly dense deposit of industrial diamonds, according to the Christian Science Monitor.

The Soviets reportedly discovered the trove in the 1970s, but they kept it a secret to avoid upsetting a world diamond market that already favored them. Now that the information is declassified, Russian scientists say Popigai diamonds, some of which are reportedly twice as hard as ordinary
