'Allow' means to make possible, so you could say that erosion allows diamonds to reach the earth's surface. But it's more interesting than that.

Diamonds are formed deep within the earth's mantle and are erupted to the surface -- or near the surface to account for erosion, as above -- by volcanic pipes.

In what geologic settings do diamonds occur?

Diamonds typically occur in two main geologic settings. The first is in kimberlite pipes, which are vertical, carrot-shaped volcanic pipes that bring diamonds from the mantle to the surface. The second setting is in alluvial deposits, where diamonds are eroded from the primary source and transported by rivers to be deposited in sediment.
