1) all inorganic
2) all occur naturally
3) all are solid
4) all have atoms aranged in a certain pattern
5) all have a definite chemical composition
hope this helps!

Diamonds are erupted to the earth's surface with indicator minerals, including kimberlite. Not all diamonds are 'stuck' to anything else.

Volcanic soil that contains indicator minerals, such as kimberlite, is where you will find diamonds.
Diamonds, Gold, Iron Ore,
Most diamonds are found on the earth and in the earth near indicator minerals, such as kimberlite.
Diamonds are proven to scratch all minerals including itself.
Diamonds are erupted to the earth's surface with indicator minerals, including kimberlite. Not all diamonds are 'stuck' to anything else.
All diamonds are erupted to the earth surface together with indicator minerals, including kimberlite. Other minerals are present in fertile kimberlite -- containing diamonds -- and absent in sterile kimberlite.
Diamonds are found on earth by geologists who look for indicator minerals, including kimberlite and lamproite, which with diamonds, are all forced to the earth's surface in volcanic pipes. You can read more about indicator minerals, below.
carbon
yes all of them are minerals.Another AnswerNone of them are minerals: coal, diamonds and graphite are formed from the mineral carbon. There is a class of minerals, according to Wikipedia: "The halide minerals are the group of minerals forming the natural salts."
Manufactured diamonds are all formed from carbon, which is really a mineral.
Diamonds are minerals, composed of the element carbon.
Diamonds are formed from carbon, which is a mineral.
Diamonds are composed of carbon.
All diamonds are minerals, and most all diamonds are rocks in their raw form: exceptionally hard, clear rocks.
Minerals are required to be naturally occurring. Synthetic diamonds are not.
