Diamond waste refers to leftover materials generated during the process of cutting or shaping diamonds, such as dust or particles that are produced. This waste can also include used or damaged diamond tools that are no longer suitable for cutting or polishing diamonds. Recycling or properly disposing of diamond waste is important to minimize environmental impact.
A diamond can be broken using a number of methods. Gem cutters study the crystal structure of diamonds and then use a hardened chisel and a hammer to cleave them. Certainly placing a diamond on an anvil and striking it with a hammer will break the diamond. But that's a poor use of the tools and a waste of a diamond. The diamond is the hardest substance we know of, but it can be "broken" in a number of ways.
No, a simulant diamond is not a real diamond. It is a material that mimics the appearance of a diamond but is not made of the same physical and chemical properties as a natural diamond.
A diamond can only be scratched by another diamond due to its hardness. No other material is hard enough to scratch a diamond.
Some applications for the use of industrial diamonds require that they be crushed before use. So, yes: diamonds can be crushed. If you're experimenting with a gem-stone quality diamond, however, your science experiment could be called a terrible waste.
No, quartz diamond crystal and diamond settings in wedding rings are not the same. Quartz diamond crystal refers to a naturally occurring quartz crystal with diamond-like inclusions, while diamond settings in wedding rings are the metal prongs or setting that hold a genuine diamond in place. The two are different in composition and purpose.
It is for the Queen. To honor her years of service and not a waste of money.
Waste from diamond cutting is collected and used to shape and polish other diamonds.
Because of its hardness properties, there is no 'waste' in diamond cutting, in the sense that none of it is simply tossed in the trash. Diamond dust and diamond fragments that result from cutting and polishing a diamond are collected and used to cut and polish other diamonds. If a chip happens to be useful as an accent stone in jewelery, it is used that way.
No, diamonds are the hardest known natural material and can only be scratched or cut by another diamond. Attempting to break a diamond with a sledgehammer will likely damage the hammer rather than the diamond.
Your question can only conjur up a collision between a diamond and a meteorite. And your question is probably based on your doubt that diamond is the hardest mineral, or at least what does 'the hardest mineral' really mean, practically. Smashing a diamond with anything, including a meteorite, is an awful waste of a gemstone. And yes, there are ways to smash a diamond.
honestly it depends on the cut of the diamond. Sometimes diamond rings are cut to fit diamonds and earrings are mounted different. If its a big diamond it can be cut smaller to fit.Another AnswerAny diamond can be mounted in any setting the buyer wants it in. Cutting down a diamond to fit into a piece of jewelery would be a waste of value, because the diamond would be smaller after cutting it down, and thus worth less.
Its really hard to get one you might as well check GTS not waste your life....
With the application of sufficient force, yes, a diamond can break. Diamond cutters do it all the time. They actually use a hardened steel chisel and a hammer to cleave diamond. Certainly a diamond can be broken using a hammer and an anvil, but that is a poor use of the tools and a waste of a diamond.

all the librans should wear diamond,emerald,blue saphire ,any other is waste peridot is not a gem only 9 gems are gems all other are waste dont spend money wastly
A laser can burn through a diamond and be used to "cut" it, though it might not be pretty. As for jewelry applications, the traditional method of splitting a diamond is to "cut" it with a hardened steel knife. The knife is finely sharpened and hardened, and placed against the diamond to be cut. The knife is then struck with a small hammer. Thus the action is one of splitting, not really cutting. The cut is carefully positioned as to take advantage of the internal crystal structure of the diamond. A hammer can be used to "smash" a diamond and break it, but this is a poor use for a hammer as well as a waste of a diamond.
You can but it would be a waste of time unless you have a game shark. You could transfer it from your gba game to platinum diamond or pearl. It was a shiny charizard
