This book is intended only for the description of diamond inclusions with all known natural properties. The first part of the book defines external and internal inserts, describes each of their varieties, and presents numerous color photomicrographs. A standout feature of this guide is a chapter that traces inclusions from rough to cut and shows how the integrity of a diamond can be compromised by the depth and position of surviving inclusions. In addition, the book has an entire chapter devoted to the diamond manufacturing process and its relationship to inclusions. Inclusions are studied with respect to heat, pressure, directional rotation and other mechanical effects. The inclusions trapped in diamonds are full of information, which in many cases still needs to be scientifically interpreted. This book takes us into the fascinating world of microinclusions, providing new insights into one of nature's most sought-after gems.
