Amount of Diamonds in the Earth

[DPS Ammonite]

A few weeks ago a member tried to estimate the number of ammonite fossils in the Earth. Here is a similiar calculation for diamonds: a quadrillion tons. I wonder if DeBeers has read this?   https://www.cnn.com/2018/07/17/world/diamonds-under-earth-surface-trnd/index.html

Back off boys, I've already laid claim to everything below 75 miles

DeBeers likely already has that many stockpiled and is limiting the supply to keep prices up.

 

I've read Clive Cussler's- Shock Wave,

so I know how the industry works!

DPS, would you like to show me this thread? I have not found it.
Thanks!

PS: I have tried to estimate the number of mud snails (Granulolabium sp.) in the "Florianer Schichten", Styria, Austria.

Its only a guess, but there are >>10 billion (10.000.000.000) of this...
