Diamond is a mineral, commonly found in crystals, and used as a gem.
Yes. Diamond is isometric, graphite is hexagonal.
A diamond is a mineral, but it be called a "gem stone" if you want to be fancy. Stones are usually round, and is a very broad subject. It varies from very expensive to just a regular old by-the-sidewalk stone. I would say that the best description of a diamond is a crystal.
It's state gem is the diamond and its state mineral is the quartz crystal.
Well, honey, sodium chloride (good ol' table salt) and diamond are definitely not isomorphic. Sodium chloride has a crystal structure composed of alternating sodium and chloride ions, while diamond is made up of carbon atoms arranged in a tetrahedral lattice. So, they may both be sparkly in their own way, but they're as different as night and day.
A diamond is composed of carbon atoms arranged in a specific crystal lattice structure.

Your local jeweler can help you determine whether or not the crystal coloured stone you have is a diamond or not.
Pokemon crystal? Well...in Pokemon Diamond it's a stone dice that powers up rock type moves.

Take your stone to a certified gemologist to confirm that it is a diamond. It could be a crystal stone of another type, and not a diamond. One reason why a diamond stone would appear hazy to the naked eye is because of flaws in the stone. If the stone is a diamond, it is probably not an expensive stone, given its apparent lack of clarity.
A mineral crystal is not necessarily a diamond, but a diamond is a mineral crystal. All minerals, such as diamond, have crystalline structures.
there is no crystal stone
You may be able to accomplish this if you are willing to sacrifice a gemstone. In this case, you must strike the diamond at **exactly** the right spot in order to separate the diamond along its crystal plane. You may be able to accomplish this action more easily if you choose to take a stone to an industrial diamond, which has much less value than a gemstone, is flawed and lacks the more solid, extended crystal plane.
Yes. Diamond is isometric, graphite is hexagonal.
Well if your looking for a stone that looks similar to a diamond that's not actually a diamond and is cheaper there are CZ's (Cubic zirconia) and can come in any color. There is also Swarovski Crystals, and of course you can go for natural semi-precious gemstones such as crystal quartz, and moonstone.

Take your crystal to a local jeweler who can use a probe to help you determine whether or not your crystal is a diamond.
