Desvelan por fin secreto de los asombrosos diamantes rosas
Un descubrimiento revolucionario nos permite determinar el ingrediente secreto de los diamantes rosas. El hallazgo podría allanar el camino para una detección de diamantes más eficaz en el futuro.
Investigadores encontraron el "secreto" de la escasez de los diamantes rosados, que solo se encuentran casi exclusivamente en Australia, lo que explica su astronómico precio, según un estudio publicado este martes (19.09.2023).
Más de 90 % de todos los diamantes rosados existentes se extraen de la mina recientemente cerrada de Argyle, en el noroeste australiano
Pero nadie sabe de verdad la razón por la que se les encontraba en ese lugar, cerca del mar, cuando la mayoría de las minas de diamante se encuentran situadas zonas alejadas de las costas, como en como en Sudáfrica y Rusia.
Un equipo australiano explica en la revista Nature Communications que esos minerales escasos se formaron gracias a la ruptura de primer supercontinente de la Tierra hace 1.300 millones de años.
Corrientes de magma elevaron los diamantes desde las profundidades
Hasta ahora, se conocía la necesidad de que hubiera carbono en las profundidades terrestres para la formación de diamantes y el papel de las fuerzas de colisión de las placas tectónicas para volverlos de color rosado.
Sin embargo, ahora, científicos de la Universidad de Curtin, en Australia, han descubierto un tercer ingrediente esencial para que el valioso mineral se encuentre en la superficie: el "estiramiento" de masas de tierra que permitió hace millones de años que corrientes de magma elevaran los diamantes desde las profundidades.

Secret of stunning pink diamonds finally revealed
A revolutionary discovery allows us to determine the secret ingredient of pink diamonds. The finding could pave the way for more effective diamond detection in the future.
Researchers found the "secret" of the scarcity of pink diamonds, which are almost exclusively found only in Australia, which explains their astronomical price, according to a study published on Tuesday (19.09.2023).
More than 90% of all existing pink diamonds are extracted from the recently closed Argyle mine in northwest Australia.
But no one really knows why they were found in such a place, close to the sea, when most diamond mines are located far from the coast, as in South Africa and Russia.
An Australian team explains in the journal Nature Communications that these scarce minerals were formed by the breakup of Earth's first supercontinent 1.3 billion years ago.
Magma currents lifted the diamonds from the depths of the earth
Until now, it was known that carbon must be present in the deep Earth for the formation of diamonds and the role of tectonic plate collision forces in turning them pink.
Now, however, scientists at Curtin University in Australia have discovered a third essential ingredient for the valuable mineral to be found on the surface: the "stretching" of land masses that allowed magma currents millions of years ago to lift the diamonds from the depths.

COMMENTS: In these two translations made by the CAT tools, I could find a few differences amongst them. In terms of syntax, you can see the green-colored words are placed differently in each translation, working as transposition. Meanwhile, the blue words are, in both translations, changed completely or were added. However, the yellow words were terms that worked as synonyms, or at least, kept the same definition.
In my opinion, the translation made by Smartcat and Matecat of the source text was well done. Even though there were instances where there was an omission, the message was delivered in a proper way.
