Diamond is formed from carbon.
No, diamond is not a silicate. Diamond is composed of carbon atoms arranged in a crystal lattice structure, whereas silicates contain silicon and oxygen atoms in their chemical composition.
Diamond is a mineral that does not contain oxygen. It is composed of pure carbon atoms arranged in a crystal lattice structure.
Both coal and diamond contain the element carbon. However, the arrangement of carbon atoms in coal and diamond differs, leading to their vastly different properties.
NaCl salt does not contain water of crystallization.
A diamond is 100% carbon, and the structure may also be contaminated with traces of other minerals, some of which give a diamond colour. For example, the Hope Diamond is blue, because those crystals contain minute amounts of boron.
Diamonds are formed from carbon and contain no ores.

No, schist is a metamorphic rock type.
Nothing scratches a diamond except another diamond. Most diamonds contain traces of nitrogen.
TDW diamond refers to "total diamond weight" and it is used for pieces of jewelry that contain more than one diamond. Each diamond has its own weight and when they are all weighted together, it is called total diamond weight.

A diamond that contains an inclusion -- or several -- visible to the naked eye, could appear to contain black dots. Such a diamond would be on the low end of diamond quality in terms of clarity.
Lets clear this up, shall we? Sapphire does NOT contain spearpillar. Diamond does.
