Papers and Notes of the Genesis and Matrix of the Diamond

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. &quote;Papers and Notes of the Genesis and Matrix of the Diamond&quote; will appeal to those with an interest in mineralogy and would make for a fantastic addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: &quote;Paper Read in 1886&quote;, &quote;On a Diamond-Bearing Peridotite and on the History of the Diamond&quote;, &quote;The Matrix of the Diamond&quote;, &quote;Paper Read in 1887&quote;, &quote;Kimberlite From the Unites States&quote;, and &quote;Note&quote;. 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.
