Is there a stronger mineral than diamond?

Yes, there are a few minerals that are stronger than diamond. Wurtzite boron nitride and lonsdaleite are both harder than diamond on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness. However, these minerals are very rare and not commonly found in nature.


What natural mineral is harder than a diamond?

There is noneAnswer:There are two naturally occurring materials harder than normal diamonds:The first, wurtzite boron nitride has a similar structure to diamond, but is made up of different atoms. It is formed during volcanic eruptions that produce very high temperatures and pressures. Wurtzide boron nitride can withstand 18% more stress than diamond,The second, lonsdaleite, or hexagonal diamond is made from carbon atoms just like diamond, but they are arranged in a different shape. Lonsdaleite is sometimes formed when meteorites containing graphite hit Earth. It is estimated that lonsdaleite 58% more stress than diamond..


What is the density of lonsdaleite?

The density of lonsdaleite, which is a type of carbon allotrope, is approximately 3.2 g/cm^3. Lonsdaleite is a hexagonal diamond structure with carbon atoms arranged in a different configuration, giving it higher hardness than regular diamond.


Is there any mineral as hard as diamond?

No. Diamond is the hardest substance we know of. the only thing harder is other diamonds.


Which is the hardest substace available on earth?

Diamond has always been considered the hardest natural substance in the world. However, wurtzite boron nitride and mineral lonsdaleite have recently been discoverd and are much harder than diamond.


Is diamonds the only mineral that will not scratch?

Diamond is the hardest natural material, ranking 10 on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness. However, there are other materials such as cubic boron nitride and lonsdaleite that are also very hard and can scratch diamond. So, while diamond is very resistant to scratching, it is not the only mineral that will not scratch.
