A diamond is made of the element carbon and is extremely dense. The covalent bonds that link each carbon chain cause this density.
Because a diamond is so dense, the light that hits it is actually slowed down. This phenomenon, along with the refraction inducing every color in the rainbow, allows one to see a diamond "sparkle" from long distances.
Because of the way the stone is cut. Light entering the stone is refracted or bent, this splits white light into its full spectrum from red to violet.
When light shines on a diamond, the facets, which are prisms, splits the light into the full rainbow of colours.
