Correct Answer: in the surface
Solution : The correct choice is the third option.
Explanation : The phrase "in the surface" is incorrect because the preposition "in" does not appropriately collocate with "surface". Using "on the surface" indicates the location of the precious diamonds and metals as being positioned directly on the surface. "On" is the appropriate preposition to denote a position or location in relation to a surface.
Therefore, the correct sentence should be: "There can be precious diamonds and metals on the surface just below you."
