Generally, a pink diamond is considered to be a type IIa diamond. This means that the stone was formed without impurities over longer periods forming larger crystals [than most other diamonds], and gets its colour from plastic deformation rather than the inclusion of another trace mineral.
Some diamonds can be treated -- and thus devalued -- to render them pink.
Pink diamonds may also be described by colour saturation, including ". . . Faint, Very Light, Light, Fancy Light, Fancy, Fancy Dark, Fancy Intense, Fancy Deep, Fancy Vivid."
