Occurrence of natural fullerenes in low grade metamorphosed proterozoic shungite from Karelia, Russia
We report on the occurrence of fullerenes in Proterozoic shungite (˜2 Ga) from the shungite mine, Kondopoga, Karelia, Russia (62.12°N 34.17°E). The presence of fullerenes has been confirmed by mass spectrometry, with peaks at 360 and 720 amu (atomic mass unit), powder X-ray diffraction showing ten d...
