Best Answer

The only time a diamond would shine in the dark would be if in a dark room it was exposed to Ultraviolet Light which humans cannot see.

Another Answer

Be aware that the only 'dark' where a gemstone diamond wouldn't shine is in a cave or in a closet with zero light.

A cut and polished diamond is designed to capture whatever light is available and reflect and refract it back into your eyes. A diamond will sparkle under starlight, moonlight, candlelight and other low-light sources.
