Yes, a stone can crack along a flaw in its crystalline structure. ("In the crystal structure of diamond, each carbon atom is linked to four other, equidistant, carbon atoms" from Answers.com - Diamonds.)
If a stone has been cut and polished, and the substantive flaw hidden by some enhancement or other, it's possible that the diamond could crack and split. Usually stones with flaws of this severity are not desirable. A certified gemologist can evaluate a diamond before you purchase it to identify any such flaws.
A diamond can chip or crack if it experiences a sudden impact, intense pressure, or extreme temperatures. Even though diamonds are one of the hardest substances, they can still be damaged if subjected to these factors. Regular wear and tear can also contribute to chipping or cracking over time.
The extreme temperature difference can cause the diamond to crack or shatter due to thermal shock. When a hot diamond is rapidly cooled in cold water, the uneven contraction of the material can create stress and lead to the gemstone breaking. It's best to allow the diamond to cool gradually to prevent damage.
A diamond is the hardest mineral on earth and your finger nail would break in half before you got enough pressure on a diamond to put a crack in it. Much less break it.
Crack cocaine is the most common form of crack, typically smoked for its intense and short-lived effects. There are also various other forms of crack, such as freebase cocaine, which is chemically similar to crack but has a different production process. However, in general, the term "crack" most commonly refers to crack cocaine.
The fracture of diamond is "conchoidal or shell-like," according to Wikipedia. Industrial diamonds are more easily broken apart based on the nature of the crystal's fracture lines. Gem-quality diamonds are more generally immune to being broken apart, because they are cut, polished and set in ways to minimize exposure to the natural fracture lines in the crystal.
A diamond fracture is a break or a crack in the stone.
No.
I am not so sure but if the diamond has a crack it may be possible, if you have old diamonds you should try it out.
by sticking it up your crack then getting someone else to lick it
Not much of a price decrease, a $2000 dollar diamond can still have a scratch or a crack,
because rocks are extremely hard to cut or even crack
by hitting it with marble, diamond or other really tough minerals.
To fix a crack in diamond brite plaster, start by cleaning the area around the crack to remove any debris or loose material. Next, use a suitable patching compound designed for pool surfaces, applying it into the crack with a putty knife to ensure a smooth finish. Allow the patch to cure according to the manufacturer's instructions, then sand it lightly if needed for a seamless appearance. Finally, reapply the diamond brite finish or touch up the affected area to match the surrounding surface.

it has less toughness so it breaks.may from sudden formation of crack
