Unearthing the Unbelievable: Rare Beating Heart Diamond Discovered in India
A rare and stunning discovery has been made in the Indian state of Gujarat where a diamond within a diamond has been unearthed by miners. A diamond company has its hands on a jewel that is rarer than rare—a large, hollow diamond, inside of which rests another, smaller diamond. Dubbed the “Beating Heart,” there is enough room inside the cavity to allow the smaller diamond to tumble around. Only one other such discovery has ever been made, and the company — Vallabh Dhanjibhai Global in the west Indian state of Gujarat who's a sightholder of the De Beers Group, the world’s largest diamond exchange — hopes to leave it uncut and unpolished to promote the natural splendor of the gemology therein. What makes the Beating Heart so remarkable is its structure. The diamond has a smaller diamond-shaped cavity inside it, which appears to be moving and pulsating when viewed under a microscope. This gives the diamond the appearance of a beating heart, hence its name. Experts say that the Beating Heart is an extremely rare and valuable find, as diamonds within diamonds are almost unheard of in the diamond industry. The diamond is currently being studied by gemologists and diamond experts, who are trying to determine its exact value and potential uses. For the people of Gujarat, the discovery of the Beating Heart is a source of pride and awe. The diamond is a symbol of the region's rich natural resources and the skill and expertise of its diamond miners. It is also a reminder of the potential of the earth to yield rare and wondrous treasures, which can inspire and captivate us all.
