The value of a diamond is largely determined by the GIA grading system's 4 Cs: The weight of the diamond. DIAMOND
Because diamonds are the hardest known natural material (10 on the Mohs scale), they can only be polished using another diamond. The process of transforming a rough stone into a gem involves five steps: planning, cleaving/sawing, bruting, polishing, and final inspection. The 4 Cs of Quality The process of transforming a rough stone into
Ranging from colorless (highest value) to light yellow or brown. Natural vs
The precision of the facets, which determines how well the diamond interacts with light. Natural vs. Lab-Grown Diamonds
Volcanic eruptions transport these diamonds to the surface through kimberlite and lamproite pipes.
