Best Answer

The value of a diamond depends on its cut, its clarity, its colour and its carat weight. Once the stones are faceted and polished, a certified gemologist can give you the answer you want.

Uncut diamonds have no set value or consistent value based on size. This is because a diamond's value is only established once it's faceted and polished.

A diamond cutter evaluates uncut diamonds and plans the cuts to maximize carat weight, while preserving the stone's other most valuable assets -- its clarity and colour. Then, when the diamond is cut, a price for it can be set.

Or more.

How much is a 10K carat of diamond worth?

Whatever you have to sell is worth whatever someone will pay you for it. If you have a single stone of this carat weight, take it to a certified gemologist so that you can most fully understand its clarity, colour and the cut. This will help you establish a market value for it. If these are loose, gem-quality diamonds, you can have them documented individually. If you have a bag of industrial diamonds weighing ten carats, which are valued differently from gem-quality diamonds, the value will be determined in pounds not carats.
