In the laboratory, the analysis of the chemical structure of the cremated remains takes place. This analysis is on the one hand necessary for steering the subsequent physical and chemical processes. On the other hand this analysis documents the origin of the memorial diamond out of the cremated remains.
Carbon Preparation
The several different potassic and calcium compounds (around 85% of the total ash volume) are chemically and physically extracted from the carbon. The carbon recovered in this procedure creates the basis and beginning of the subsequent synthesis in our facility.
Graphite Preparation
The carbon is transformed under extreme temperature and very high pressure into graphite. Any subsequent gases generated using this procedure are immediately discharged. After this process, the graphite is thoroughly cleaned.
Synthesis
For the creation of your diamond, a modified technique with HPHT (High Pressure High Temperature) technology is used.
Graphite is prepared for diamond transformation.
For the initial growth, a diamond crystal is added.
Near the start crystal, more crystals are formed
The rough diamond is grown. The start crystal will be cut off.
Cut and Polish
The Diamond is then cut and polished by experienced diamond points.
Quality Control and Certificate
A strict quality control is carried out and the certificate with all the chemical analysis that was done will be issued. The following values are all noted on the certificate: genuineness, weight, cut and color of the diamond.
Laser Inscription
Upon request, the diamond can be engraved by micro laser inscription. Your diamond is then packaged in a beautiful presentation box, and sent to you.
