1. Turn Cremated Remains into Diamonds
To make synthetic diamonds from cremated remains, several
ounces of the ashes are placed in a crucible that can withstand massive heat.
They then are brought to over 5,000 degrees Fahrenheit to allow all of the
elements except the carbon to oxidize.
First, the carbon will turn to graphite. The graphite is
placed in a core with a metal catalyst and a diamond seed crystal into a
diamond press. The graphite is heated to about 2,500 degrees Fahrenheit and
pressure of about 800,000 pounds per square inch is applied.
After several weeks the graphite will turn into a rough
crystal. It is then removed and cut with faceting tools to your
specifications.1 The entire process will take over a month, but an authentic
man-made diamond is forever, indeed.
