How the hell do you get iron rain. Is there iron perspiration and iron clouds? Wiki says nothing. Super interesting though, I wonder how it would work.
The source for that seems to be this. This is what it says:
Intriguingly, the temperature of OGLE-TR-56b’s upper atmosphere is theoretically just right to form clouds, not of water vapor, but of iron atoms. Earlier this year, astronomers reported evidence for iron rain on brown dwarfs. However, such storms only occur over a short portion of a brown dwarf’s lifetime, while the newly discovered 4 billion year-old OGLE-TR-56b should still be experiencing this exotic weather, thanks to strong heating from the nearby star.
Diamond scarcity is propaganda controlled by zales to monopolize the diamond market and up charge more than they’re actually worth. They’re everywhere, it literally rains diamonds on Neptune. Nothing to see here.
Natural diamonds are moderately rare, although not as rare as the companies like to suggest. Especially if you want high quality natural diamonds that actually look good.
Apparently mining companies are a bit disinterested in diamonds really. They are quite an ordeal to deal with and to effectively mine. They tend to be bound up in a lot of random junk material, mostly low-grade iron and rock, that you don’t actually want, and don’t really have much use for, and the signal to noise ratio can be quite high.
Although a lot less interesting it’s probably more profitable for a mining company to simply come across a large stockpile of copper, then a possible diamond source. Unless it is unusually pure and high quality.

Iron melts. You didn’t question the diamonds?!?
