The process makes use of a molten Mn47Ni53 catalyst to initiate the graphite-diamond transformation reaction. The pressure and temperature requirements to obtain reproducible spontaneous diamond crystallization were around 52.5-54 kbar and 1270-1320 C. The crystals had well-shaped cubo-structured morphology with the 100 and 111 faces and grain sizes of 0.2-0.5 mm.
