No. Diamonds reflect and refract light. Without a light source, a diamond cannot be seen.No, a diamond is not a source of light. A cut diamond appears to sparkle because it is very good at scattering light that strikes it.
In a cave with zero light, you would not be able to see any reflection from a diamond since there is no light source. However, if there is moonlight, starlight, ambient light from any source, your diamond will sparkle.
A diamond 'gathers' light from every available source and reflects and refracts it back to the eye of the observer. Its brightness then, depends on how much available light the diamond can collect.
Some diamonds are fluorescent. This means that light enters the stone and the wave length is converted to a longer light wave. Not all diamonds are fluorescent. No diamond will 'glow in the dark' without first being exposed to a light source.
The moon is not a source of light because it simply reflects the suns light, therefore it is not a direct source of light

No, diamond is not a natural source of light. While diamonds can reflect and refract light beautifully due to their crystalline structure, they do not emit light on their own. Instead, they require an external light source to display their characteristic sparkle and brilliance.

Light entering a diamond can be reflected off its surfaces (internal or external) or refracted as it passes through the diamond due to its high refractive index. The unique internal structure of a diamond causes light to bounce off its facets multiple times, resulting in its characteristic brilliance and sparkle. White light entering a diamond can also split into its spectral colors due to the dispersion property of the diamond.
One source of diamond is volcanic pipes.

If a diamond is pushed into the eyeball, it would damage the organ and potentially cause blindness. Reflectively, unless the original source of light bounced through a faceted diamond would blind an eye, the act of passing a light through a diamond would not -- as a stand-alone fact -- cause blindness in all probability.
The "Crown of Light" diamond, is a diamond only sold at Diamond International. It is very beautiful.
No, diamond is relatively rare.
Depending on the cut and the size and the source of light, a person could be momentarily 'blinded' by the flash of a diamond -- however, it is not permanent.
Diamond cut is perhaps the most important of the four Cs, so it is important to understand how this quality affects the properties and values of a diamond. A good cut gives a diamond its brilliance and shine. The angles and finish of any diamond are what determine its ability to handle light, which leads to fire, brilliance & scintillation
