Best Answer

Diamonds are produced, at depths of 140 - 190 km beneath the Earth, and it is hot there. They are believed to grow slowly. And they are very very old - perhaps a few billion years. They are bought up from these depths when there is a local volcanic eruption of a particular type.

But man-made diamonds are obviously quite new, and they are the equal of natural stones.
