Yellow diamonds cost more than colorless diamonds most of the time. There is only one yellow diamond in the world for every 10,000 white diamonds, which is the reason they are considered so valuable. Also, because the amount of nitrogen in the diamond is always different, every yellow canary diamond is one of kind, also adding value. It is uncommon for yellow canary diamonds to be found in diamond mines. Yellow diamonds from the mine are often not as vibrant yellow, and therefore are not as valuable as the ones found naturally in the ground.

And so on.Trace elements that give diamonds colour are not separable from the diamond lattice.
