Generally pink diamonds are found in Australia. Australia's Argyle mine, in far north Western Australia, produces around 90% of the world's supply of pink diamonds. These are the world's only "intense" pink diamonds. Pink diamonds, one of the most rare and expensive diamonds in the world, are also mined in India, Brazil and Africa, but these are lighter in colour.
Pink diamonds can occur naturally and are rare and valuable. Their pink color is a result of unique conditions during their formation deep within the Earth's crust. However, pink diamonds can also be treated or enhanced through various processes, such as irradiation or high-pressure, high-temperature treatments.
Yes, if they are natural diamonds. Diamonds can be treated or enhanced to 'bring out' a colour, so a faint pink diamond could be treated to enhance the colour and become a more intense pink. Enhanced diamonds are of a lesser value than naturally coloured diamonds. Today, most natural pink diamonds are produced from the Argyle mines in Australia, and are pink based on "...low levels of nitrogen impurities, their colour resulting instead from structural defects of the crystal lattice," according to Wikipedia.
Yes, vivid blue diamonds are generally rarer and more expensive than vivid pink diamonds due to the unique geological conditions required for their formation, as well as the consumer demand for blue diamonds. Blue diamonds are highly sought after for their rarity and distinct color, often commanding higher prices than pink diamonds of similar quality.
Yes, blue diamonds are generally more expensive than white, pink, or black diamonds. This is due to their rarity, with high-quality blue diamonds being quite scarce compared to other colors. The unique coloring of blue diamonds adds to their allure and value in the market.
The diamonds themselves are, well, diamonds. They're found mixed in with other rock, though.
You will participate in the joy of discovery when you search for pink diamonds and find one at the Crater of Diamonds State park: there are no markers.
Argyle pink diamonds are the most rare and valuable and can only be found in Argyle minds.
Diamonds mined in Australia, in addition to white diamonds, also produce the brown colours and the pink colours. You can read more, below.
Yes, though it is extremely rare. Natural diamonds can be pink and many other colors as well. Diamonds can be irradiated to enhance a faint pink colour. However, to be sure of a diamond's natural colour you should take it to a qualified jeweler or gemologist. Natural diamond colour is affected by the inclusion of trace minerals within the lattice, and plastic deformation. Diamond color can also be affected by irradiation. Plastic deformation is the cause of color in pink diamonds. Pink is a very rare natural diamond color. Because of its rarity, pink is a favourite colour to sell, and generally, unless you have a certificate from a certified gemologist that the pink stone is a natural pink diamond, your pink stone is probably irradiated or not a real diamond.
Sometimes. Diamonds can come in a variety of different colour. Pink diamonds are actually among the world's rarest and most expensive diamonds.
It's difficult to understand which pink diamond you're referencing, but yes, there are pink diamonds that are real diamonds. Pink diamonds are among some of the rarest and most valuable stones.

People interested in owning fancy diamonds are likely to purchase pink diamonds, even those from the Agile mines.
There were 4 diamonds, White, blue, yellow and pink, but pink became Steven.
Any pink diamond is known as a pink diamond, and its description may include 'fancy', 'intense', 'light' and so forth. Pink diamonds can also be described as pink-purple, and more. You can follow the link below and find three important pink diamonds in the list.
According to the KHulsey site: "Type IIa diamonds can be colored pink, red, or brown due to structural anomalies arising through plastic deformation." Pink diamonds are extremely rare.
