are there any minerals like gold or diamonds on other planets likes venus or jupiter?

Answer 1

Yes, no doubt. However, no such minerals have been actually recovered and returned to earth.

Diamonds are formed from carbon under high pressure and temerature. Venus and Jupiter have such an environment.

Gold is a chemical element originating from lighter elements under tremendous heat and pressure. So, gold would also be present on the planets.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Almost definitely. The moon rocks brought back to Earth from the moon landers are of a similar composition to rocks found on Earth and contain quartz in mineral form. I think the same has been found in rocks on and from Mars.

There was a theory some time ago that the core of Jupiter and the other large planets could be some form of solid mineral, diamond, quartz etc. but too my knowledge that's never been proven.

Answer 3

Probably, but don't plan on visiting Venus or Jupiter. Venus is a swamp of acid, Jupiter is so massive that gravity would crush you if you were able to survive the gaseous surface.

Try the moons instead, like IO, that has volcanic activity. If carbon is there, the heat and pressure could cause diamonds.

Answer 4

Most likely yes (but probably only on the inner planets and, perhaps, some moons of the outer planets). The gas giants don't have much of a solid surface, so finding anything there would be nearly impossible, and probably they are depleted in the metals. The cost of getting minerals from any of the planets in the foreseeable future is outrageous, though.

Answer 5

Certainly. Gold is an element that is synthesized in a supernova explosion. Our solar system was made from the remnants of one or more such explosions, so it should be expected that gold is present throughout.

Diamonds are made from carbon. Carbon is one element that can be synthesized in thermonuclear fusion during the lifetime of any star, not just during supernovae, thus is much more prevalent.

But diamonds require very specific conditions for formation and I think an active tectonic plate system is part of it, so I'm not sure if there would be any significant quantities elsewhere on Jupiter anyway.

Answer 6

Any of the rocky planets would have these minerals.
Diamonds may not be found on Jupiter.

Answer 7

Hello....which one is it...that has to be a question from the Royal Family, already holding the largest collection of donated gems on this Earth

Answer 8

Yes, and they are going to stay there for a very long time.
