Diamonds are mined from the earth, and in the mining process the diamond stones are separated from the other material.
Seventy-five to eighty percent of diamonds are graded as industrial diamonds, and sold in bulk as bort to makers of diamond-coated tools and precision instruments.
The raw, gem-quality stones are moved to a sorting process, where like stones are grouped, and where larger stones are separated out for special treatment in order to maximize their value.
Once a stone reaches the cutting table, it follows a series of steps, including "...planning, cleaving or sawing, bruting, polishing, and final inspection."

How is diamonds refined?
Diamonds are refined through a process that involves crushing the ore-bearing rock, then using high-pressure water jets to separate the diamonds from the rest of the material. The diamonds are then sorted based on size, shape, and quality. Finally, they are cut and polished to enhance their brilliance and beauty before being ready for sale.
What are the raw materials produced by mines?
Mines primarily produce raw materials such as coal, iron ore, copper, gold, silver, and diamonds. These materials are then refined and processed to be used in various industries such as manufacturing, construction, and jewelry.
How are diamonds proccessed?
Diamonds are processed through various stages, including mining to extract rough diamonds from the earth, sorting to separate diamonds based on quality and size, cutting and shaping to enhance their brilliance and maximize their value, and finally polishing to achieve a smooth, shiny surface. These processed diamonds are then graded, certified, and sold in the market for use in jewelry and other luxury goods.
Are diamonds refineable?
Yes, diamonds are refined, but not in traditional sense like metals. When we talk about refining the diamonds, it refers to cutting, shaping and shining thick diamonds to increase their appearance and value - not melting or purifying them. A rough diamond is extracted from the Earth or produced in a laboratory, and then undergoes a careful process associated with plan, clewing, brooking, facing and polishing. These stages convert raw, without stone into a luxurious, gem used in jewelry. Damaged or poorly sliced diamonds can be recurrence or repeated to improve clarity and talent, although it can slightly reduce the weight of their carat. Industrial-grade diamonds, which are not suitable for jewelry, may have land in abrasive powder for devices. Unlike metals, diamonds cannot be strangled or can be chemically refined, but their value and aesthetics can be improved through accurate craftsmanship. Therefore, in the literal sense, not "refinable", diamonds are highly adapable.
What must be mined smelted and refined before they can be processed into useful everyday materials?
Raw minerals, such as iron ore, must be mined, smelted, and refined before they can be processed into useful everyday materials like steel. This process involves extracting the mineral from the earth, heating it to a high temperature to separate impurities, and then further refining it to achieve the desired properties for specific applications.

Are diamonds extracted or processed?
Diamonds are mined, sorted, and the 25% of them graded with potential gem-stone quality are processed into cut and faceted gemstones. The remaining diamonds are sold as bort, or industrial diamonds.

Why don't diamonds have to be sharpened?
Natural diamonds must be sharpened in order to perform as cutting tools. However, some natural diamonds are mined and before being processed by diamond cutters, expose sharp edges that can cut. Cuts from these un-processed diamonds, however, will be random and unpredictable.
