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 lonsdaleite the hardest material?
No, the hardest material known is diamond. Edit: Actually, diamond is only the hardest material which occurs naturally in macroscopic crystalline form. While the lonsdaleite found in meteorite craters has a Mohs hardness of about 7-8 (as opposed to diamond's 10), this is due to impurities and imperfections. It has been calculated that a pure lonsdaleite crystal would be 58% harder than diamond. Similarly, a crystal of wurtzite boron nitride would also be harder than diamond, although a method of producing such crystals is still to be found.
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 are the top ten hardest things on earth on a scale?
Diamond Titanium Tungsten Steel Chromium Zirconia Lonsdaleite Silicon carbide Boron nitride Cubic zirconia
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.

Where can you buy the mineral lonsdaleite online?
Nowhere, I also searched the whole internet (3 google pages) but I didnt find it. However, I own a possible chunk of the material (113 grams). I searched for all of the features lonsdaleite contains and it seems that it all matches. bye
