Diamonds are the hardest natural material on earth. They are so hard because their composition is carbon, one of the smallest elements, and those atoms share electron bonds producing a very tight bond between the already small atoms.
It should be noted that diamond has a range of hardness, depending on where you are within the crystal structure. Think of it as having seams, and thus differing hardness as you move across the crystal.
