  • Notes: first edition. Natuurkundige Verhandeligen van de Hollandsche Maatschappij der Wetenschappen, Volume 2, part 19. "... Goeppert concludes that the inclusions are actually organic in nature and that diamond formed in Neptunian rather than Plutonian processes... shortly after the publication of this paper, the discoveries of diamond in South Africa established the true matrix of the diamond and dispelled the notion that inclusions therein were organic in origin"--Sinkankas 2446.
