My thoughts
I'm not an expert at the Silmarillion (Never read it but have heard about the silmarils.) But I have two things to add.
1) If the Arkenstone were placed above Thorin's tomb I doubt thieves would've stolen it. Number one, It would be too hard to get at, think of Gimli's pride in dwarven architechture. Number two, I think the dwarves would be more respectful than to steal the Arkenstone but an outsider might try at it, I dunno.
2) Totally irrelevent but, It must be rather hard for the dwarves in some cases, think about it. They live awfully far down in the mountains, imagine their surprise if they found they were living in a dormant volcano!
