It is an ALLOTROPE of Carbon.

Aall the atoms in diamoind are carbon. They way these atoms are arranged, in the Adamantine Structure, gives diamond its hardness. When mined as a stone , it tends to be rounded and lacks any lustre, and grey in colour.

It diamiond cutters, who bring the edges and lustre to a diamiond.

NB Other allotropes of carbon are Graphite, and Buckminster Fullerene(Footballene). These two allotropes of carbon have a different arrangement of the carbon atoms.

What does a hard stone do on diamond?

You might be asking whether or not you could damage a diamond using a hard stone. With that assumption, here is one answer. If you strike the diamond 'just right' and the diamond has an inclusion or flaw along a stress point that you happened to hit 'just right' with the large stone, you may be able to damage the diamond. Otherwise, a diamond is the hardest mineral known. And because of its value, you might not want to experiment with one using a large stone to damage it.
