What is the average size of a diamond?
Diamonds come in all sizes: 20% of which are gem-stone quality, the remainder are industrial diamonds. Most diamonds are tiny: gem-stone quality diamonds must be larger than most diamonds found, because of their use. Gem-quality diamonds must be visible, which is not true for industrial diamonds. Your answer, then, by logic, dictates that most diamonds an average diamond is much smaller than a pea.
