High-temperature and high-pressure treatment of diamond is becoming an important technology to elaborate diamonds. This is the first book providing a comprehensive review of the properties of HPHT-treated diamonds, based on the analysis of published data and the work of the authors. The book gives a detailed analysis of the physics of transformation of internal structures of diamonds subjected to HPHT treatment and discusses how these transformations can be detected using methods of optical microscopy and spectroscopy. It also gives practical recommendations for the recognition of HPHT-treated diamonds. The book is written in a language and terms which can be understood by a broad audience of physicists, mineralogists and gemologists.

Most of the material presented here was originally published in Gems & Gemology as articles and lab notes (short reports from the GIA Laboratory, formerly called the Gem Trade Laboratory) or as Gem News/Gem News International items between the years 1938 and 2007. Also included are summaries of presentations at GIA's 2006 International Gemological Symposium and Gemological Research Conference, which originally appeared in the Fall 2006 Proceedings volume produced by Gems & Gemology staff. The present work is organized in two main parts on color treatments and clarity treatments, with color photos and microimages on almost every page. Chapters in the section on color treatments cover coated diamonds, irradiated diamonds, and annealed diamonds. Chapters in the section on clarity treatments cover laser-drilled and glass-filled diamonds. Material is presented in chronological order to help readers follow the evolving areas of interest and understanding of these treatments. Some of the older material includes editorial comments to explain now-unfamiliar concepts or discuss significant development since the original publication. The book includes a poster-sized color chart enclosed in a side pocket, with color photos demonstrating diagnostic features of filled diamonds and testing techniques. Shigley is a distinguished research fellow at the GIA Lab in Carlsbad, California.

The paragon of physical perfection and a sparkling example of Earth's forces at work, the diamond has fascinated all realms of society, from Russian tsars and Hollywood stars to scientists and brides-to-be. The Nature of Diamonds is an authoritative and richly illustrated look at nature's most coveted gem. Leading geologists, gemologists, physicists, and cultural observers cover every facet of the stone, from its formation in the depths of the Earth and its explosive ascent to the surface, to its economic, regal, social, and technological roles. The book takes the reader to cutting-edge research on the frontiers of diamond exploration and exploitation, from Arctic wastes to laboratories that create industrial diamonds for cutting tools that slice through rock. Charting the history of mining from its origins in India and Brazil, the book follows the diamond rush in South Africa to today's high-tech enterprises. It provides a glimpse into the economics of the diamond trade, and an overview of diamond cutting, from the rough uncut stones in early Indian and Roman jewelry to the multifaceted stones we see today. The cultural history of the diamond as both a revered and a social symbol is explored, from its early history as the exclusive property of royalty to today's brilliant-laden jewelry as an emblem of wealth and status. The engaging text is complemented by more than 200 lavish illustrations which span fine art, earth science, and cultural studies and capture the brilliance and beauty of this extraordinary gem.
