[PRWeb Mar 2, 2006] http://www.prweb.com/releases/2006/3/prweb353354.htm Wed, 8 Mar 2006 15:31:11 -0800 podcrew@extrahoop.com American Gemological Laboratories, Inc. and the organizer of this first time event, “This brain trust of outstanding researchers will gather in Orlando on March 12, 2006 to address the complex technological challenges facing the diamond and colored stone world in the next decade.” Beesley continued, “This stellar group of individuals represents some of the nation’s top universities, organizations and instrument manufacturers, who have applied their analytical talents and emerging technologies to the mounting challenges of gem and mineral analysis”. The opening segment will be conducted by Dr. Russell Hemley, the group leader of the Carnegie Institution’s CVD Rapid Diamond Growth Project. Beesley continued, “Dr. Hemley will address the latest developments in chemical vapor deposition diamonds that can potentially break the 100 carat, mega, gem quality diamond mark at growth rates of one millimeter per hour. They have already achieved a 10 carat crystal at rates in excess of all other techniques.” In addition, seven other researchers will present their individual research activity ranging from beryllium / light element detection and quantification to the latest Raman applications for advanced diamond examination. Dr. Bonner Denton of the University of Arizona, the Raman guru, will present the latest developments in Raman applications and miniaturization. Dr. Robert Downs, also of the University of Arizona and coordinator of the massive RRUFF project sponsored by gemstone connoisseur and technical visionary Mike Scott, will present the details of the most significant database project undertaken in the history of gem and mineral characterization. Dr. Daniel Armstrong of The University of Texas will present his published research efforts to develop high speed analytical techniques for basic identification and enhancement assessment for organic fillers using DRIFTS, an infra-red method and near infra-red techniques. Dr. Steven Novak of Evans Analytical Group, the prime source of SIMS analysis for all the major gemological labs in the country will present an in-depth look at beryllium and light element detection in gemstones. Dr. Alan Koenig of the US Geological Survey will address his organizations growing interest in developing standards for emerging laser ablation techniques, like ICP-MS, LIBS and related technologies for the gem and mineral industries. Dr. George Gavin of Spectral Analytical Instruments will present his work on elemental identification using ICP-AES...
