A natural diamond is more rare than a manufactured diamond.
Natural diamonds can be industrial diamonds or gemstone quality diamonds. Gemstone quality diamonds are worth more than industrial diamonds. If by 'industrial', you mean man-made, then a natural diamond will always be more valuable than a man-made diamond of equal carat weight, unless the natural diamond is not of gemstone quality.
The value of a natural blue diamond can vary greatly depending on factors such as size, color intensity, clarity, and cut. Blue diamonds are typically more valuable than white diamonds, with prices ranging from thousands to millions of dollars per carat. Rare and high-quality natural blue diamonds can command premium prices in the market.
No, diamond is not malleable at all. Copper is one of the most malleable substances.
No, diamond is stronger than aquamarine. Diamond is the hardest natural material on the Mohs scale, while aquamarine is a 7.5-8 on the same scale, making it softer and more prone to scratching or chipping compared to diamond.
The color scale for white diamonds runs from D to Z. On one end of the spectrum you have completely white without any traces of yellow and on the other end, a diamond fully saturated with yellow and no traces of whiteness. Due to the fact that they are quite common, they are actually quite affordable.
Yes, if it is pure natural sapphire it will be worth more than a diamond.
I think you are asking if a natural clean diamond is worth as much as a natural diamond that is Not considered clean? The answer is no. A clean diamond means that it is clear from imperfections. Now this can mean clear to the naked eye, or clear under a microscope. Of course the diamond that is clear under the microscope is much worth more than a diamond that is only clear to the naked eye.
A natural blue diamond will always be worth more than a white or colourless diamond, given equal carat weight, clarity, and excellence of the cut.
Mined diamonds are more valuable than manufactured diamonds, as gemstones. This may not be a consideration for you, in which case, you would own a manufactured diamond.
A geologist would differentiate between a natural diamond -- formed by a geological process, and a synthetic diamond -- formed by a man-made process. Both diamonds are 'real diamonds'. Read more about synthetic diamonds, below.
Natural diamonds can be industrial diamonds or gemstone quality diamonds. Gemstone quality diamonds are worth more than industrial diamonds. If by 'industrial', you mean man-made, then a natural diamond will always be more valuable than a man-made diamond of equal carat weight, unless the natural diamond is not of gemstone quality.
A human life, for example, has more worth than a diamond.
Yes. Any diamond is worth more than a crystal.
The term 'genuine, clean diamond' implies a generalist's description of what a gemologist would term 'natural, acceptably flawed diamond'. The term 'regular diamond' is as descriptive as 'regular human'. Any diamond is worth what someone will pay you for it.
Both kind of diamond are made from carbon. Mined diamonds are formed by Mother Nature; manufactured diamonds are formed by machines in a laboratory. Both rate 10 on the Mohs scale of hardness. A natural diamond will be much more highly valued than a man-made diamond, given that both are gem-stone quality. As with mined diamonds, most manufactured diamonds have industrial applications, and are not used as gemstones.
Your question is based in semantics, the key word being 'genuine'. A genuine diamond means an authentic diamond. Even mankind can manufacture an authentic diamond, given the carbon materials, heat, pressure and time. Gem quality diamonds are evaluated according to the carat weight, colour, clarity and cut. Colour and clarity can be 'adjusted' by mankind, which lowers the value of an authentic diamond. A natural diamond formed deep within the earth's mantle, erupted to the earth's surface in a volcanic pipe, mined, brokered, cut and polished as a gemstone, that has not been adjusted or enhanced, is worth more than a diamond that has been altered or manufactured by mankind.
No.
