Researchers from Australia and the United Kingdom have revealed in a recent study that a strange diamond from an ancient dwarf planet found its way to Earth’s surface.
According to CNN, the revelation started to unfold when geologist Andy Tomkins, a professor at Monash University in Australia, was out in the field categorizing meteorites. He came across a strange “bended” kind of diamond in a space rock in Northwest Africa, said study coauthor Alan Salek, a doctoral student, and researcher at RMIT University in Australia.
