Most gem-quality diamonds found are about the size of a pea.
The most common use of diamonds is for industrial tools, because industrial diamonds are the most common diamonds.
Diamonds are formed deep within the earth's mantle under extreme high pressure and temperature. Most diamonds -- 80% -- are industrial diamonds, the tiny pieces you describe. Gem-quality diamonds are more rare -- the remaining 20% -- and large, gem-quality diamonds are most rare. Pea-size or smaller is the most common size for diamond stones. As to why -- the answer is in the mysteries of geology and its formation technologies, which are generally unpredictable and always random.
A carat diamonds size is 3.5mm.
Yes, real diamonds are heavy for their size. Diamonds have a high density, which contributes to their weight. This density is one of the factors used to distinguish between real and synthetic diamonds.
When describing diamonds, glass is probably not as common as ice.
Industrial diamonds are most common.
Brown diamonds are the most common colour of diamonds mined, of gem-quality. Only about 20% of all diamonds mined are of gem quality.
No, people say ROTATED SQUARES are diamonds - It's a common mistake. Diamonds are just rotated squares - NOT diamonds. Just remember that.
No, diamonds are much more expensive than rubies But it depends on the size,
For their size, diamonds are extremely valuable, so conserving them in the sense of protecting them is important.
The common ingredient is - Carbon.
Carat is a weight indicator of diamonds. Carrots are vegetables, which don't occur in diamonds.
