Hi, Anne Black
A friend of yours, Kevin Decker just asked us to pass 
this along to you. Here's the link at Discovery.com 
that they thought you'd be interested in seeing.

In this story and in the AGU abstracts, we are reading 
much about nanodiamonds. Does anyone know of any papers 
about how a person goes about looking for nanodiamonds 
in sediment samples?

Where does a person find a description of the procedures 
used to extract and concentrate the carbon spherules and 
nanodiamonds for analysis?

By the way, an article, for what it is or is not worth, about 
nanodiamonds is "Lucy in the Sky with Nanodiamonds" at
