Papers and Notes of the Genesis and Matrix of the Diamond e-bog

This vintage book contains a collection of articles on the creation and composition of diamonds. The contents of this volume originated from a series of lectures delivered by Henry Carvil Lewis, M.A., F.G.S., which were later edited and arranged by Professor T. G. Bonney. "e;Papers and Notes of the Genesis and Matrix of the Diamond"e; will appeal to those with an interest in mineralogy and would make for a fantastic addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: "e;Paper Read in 1886"e;, "e;On a Diamond-Bearing Peridotite and on the History of the Diamond"e;, "e;The Matrix of the Diamond"e;, "e;Paper Read in 1887"e;, "e;Kimberlite From the Unites States"e;, and "e;Note"e;. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on metal work. First published in 1897.
