Diamonds form when carbon deep in Earth is affected by extreme temperatures and pressures. They form at depths greater than 150 kilometers. However, the mines where diamonds are found are less than 1 kilometer deep
Rocks from one mine were examined for age. The diamonds found within certain rocks were 1.6 billion years old, but the rocks were only 100 million years
old. Which statement uses evidence in the paragraph to explain why the diamonds were found within younger rocks?
O Magma from deep in Earth pushed the diamonds closer to the surface
