Diamond is a form of pure carbon. Sometimes tiny fragments of diamond can form in shocked impact ejecta, so there are probably tiny pieces of diamond scattered about on the lunar surface. My suspicion is that we would not find gemstone quality diamonds the size of those common to certain places here on earth.
