Abstract

The first chromatography–mass spectroscopy data on volatiles in diamonds synthesized in the Fe–S–C system with 5 wt % S at 1400–1450°C and 5.0–5.5 GPa indicate the evolution of volatile composition during the diamond growth and, correspondingly, the variation in redox conditions of the reaction cell. A significant role is played by various hydrocarbons (HCs) and their derivatives, the content of which can reach 87%. Our data on possible abiogenic synthesis of HCs (components of natural gas and oil) can result in global recalculations (including climate) related to the global C cycle.
