An uncut diamond can be weighed just like any other diamond. One carat is equal to 1/5 of a gram (200 milligrams). The uncut stone, however, must not have any other matter attached to the diamond in order to register a true carat weight for the diamond stone. The weight of the raw stone will not represent the weight of the finished stone as the cutting and polishing processes will remove material to create the facets and shape.

It all depends on how many diamonds there are to make up 1.0ct, their colour, quality, and cut I think it would be unfair on our part to tell a price of diamond without even looking at it or seeing the paperwork. Also it would be interesting to see the basics of diamond - Cut (whether it is cut or uncut diamond), color, clarity (is their spark and shine in diamond or not) and Carat value (as mentioned by you- 1 carat here) before taking a call on the price of diamond. Also market price of diamond is one factor which will determine the value you should expect. The current market price for 1 karat diamond is $3,500. But this doesn't mean you will get $3,500. It would be better if you take your diamond to a diamond buyer who will asses it and will tell you the right value. Only check the following thing about the diamond buyer- GIA certified staff, BBB accredited and transparency.
