What is worth more diamonds or oil?
Gold is worth more than diamonds (diamonds do not have a universal absolute value, whereas gold does). Oil is worth more than both gold and diamonds combined.We rely on oil to power our economies, keep the ships floating, keep our cars moving, keep the planes flying and so on. Without the oil, there is no economy. Wars are fought over oil, but none are fought over diamonds (except some small civil wars as a result of disputes).Oil however is running out, which makes it even more expensive and valuable than it used to be. We are quickly trying to find new ways to replace the oil we rely on, such as electric cars. Oil will only get even more valuable as it becomes rarer.Another AnswerIn terms of weight, a cup of diamonds vs a cup of oil depends on the quality of both. A cup of gemstones, for example, would be worth far more than a cup of oil. However, a cup of industrial diamonds -- about 80% of all those mined, would be worth less than a cup of oil.
