The scientists found a way to heat the radioactive graphite to release most of the radioactivity in a gaseous form. The gas is subjected to high temperature and low pressures that turn it into a man-made diamond.
Whoever heard of diamonds forming under low pressure? Makes me wonder if the writer had his facts straight.

Chemical vapor deposition creates diamonds using high temperatures and low pressure.
