Dubai\n\n\nAs one of the world's fastest-growing regions, construction cranes are an omnipresent sight on the horizon, making that buzz all too literal. But word-of-mouth about the potential for doing business here is equally strong, helping to make the 10th edition of the International Jewellery Dubai (IJD) show, which started Monday and concludes on Friday, Dec. 10, double in size over last year's event.\n\nThe show includes 454 exhibitors this year, up from 225 exhibitors in 2003. A greater number of first-time international participants (including Diamond Trading Co.(DTC) sightholders from Belgium and the Far East, as well as 27 companies exhibiting in an Italian Trade Centre-sponsored Italian Pavilion) reflects the region's growing importance to the international jewelry community.\n\n"As the figures indicate, IJD has grown tremendously in stature, and while it is already the most significant show of its kind in the region, it is now set to take its place among the premier shows serving the jewelry trade on the world stage," says Christina Nicholson, general manager of exhibitions and conventions for the Dubai World Trade Centre, the organizers of the show. \n\n"With Dubai playing an increasingly important part in the worldwide gold and jewelry trade, thanks to its strategic position and strong trade ties with the region, an exhibition like International Jewellery Dubai has tremendous scope for growth," Nicholson says.\n\nThe show's expansion comes as no surprise in this city, where the most common remark focuses on the shocking degree of change that's transformed Dubai from a desert outpost into a bustling capital of commerce. It is considered the hub of the Gulf region, now the third largest diamond market in the world, after the United States and Japan, according to DTC figures.

You, too can dig for diamonds at Crater of Diamonds State Park in Arkansas. Imagine a big ploughed field, and lots of people sifting through the dirt looking for diamonds. \n\nI went there the summer I was twelve. My advice: find out what raw diamonds look like before you dig. \n\nhttp://www.craterofdiamondsstatepark.com/digging-for-diamonds/default.asp#What\n\nI found a piece of broken glass. I read the exhibit on the way out.

A diamond is a crystal structure, and thus, exists only as a solid.  If you melt or boil a diamond (at incredibly high temperature) it is no longer a diamond, but carbon.

The melting point of diamond is the highest of all known natural substances, over 3800 K, which converts to 6,380 degrees Fahrenheit.  (Carbon's tetrahedral network solid structure is responsible for the high melting point.)  \nAlthough the diamonds themselves did not melt, the earrings' metal may have melted, depending on what it was.  In any case, your earrings are small and would be difficult to locate in the ruins of a burned down house.  If they haven't been stolen, they're definitely still there.

If you're looking for a real diamond, but man-made, the newest thing is called "cultured diamonds".  They are grown in a lab and apparently are actually diamonds, just man-made.  Three companies make these, which you can look up on Google.  They are Apollo Diamonds, Gemesis and Chatham.
