Diamond is earth's hardest natural mineral. Because it does not get destroyed very easily, it is useful as a gem; a precious stone. However more than its hardness, radiant beauty is sight to behold from anywhere you choose to behold it. Even the tiniest diamonds still glow with radiant beauty anytime.

Diamond forms from the element called carbon, the most abundant in the element in the earth. It is also used in making some of the best and most expensive jewelry you ever saw. It costs a lot, but most people don't mind the cost if only they can have the thing on their bodies for just a few glorious moments. I won't say I blame them because of the beauty of diamonds jewelry on people, especially beautiful ladies.

Great depths within Earth are the home of birth of the diamond. It is where those priceless precious stones are created from the earth's pressures and its essence. And now you see them, flawless as they are, and you never want to part ways with them. Well, you are not alone in this: we all desire them.

Since the time it was discovered, the beauty of diamonds has been such that only the best of men could own it. They were originally only owned by lords or kings, nobles or men of wealth. It is like the purity of the piece calls for the purest of men, and indeed they respond. They did so then, as well they do now.

For the diamond to be economically feasible for mining, you would have to visit some of Planet Earth's oldest continental regions. There, in the cratons that you find, you will find the world's most beautiful gem in its natural habitat, flawless and beautiful as ever.

Many people desire to hold their own against the beauty of the diamond, but in the end they become slaves to it. And who wouldn't? If you ever saw the thing, you would understand why it is so expensive to purchase, yet there is never the lack of a market for it.

There are a number of places you could find diamonds. There are cratons, there are volcanic rocks, and they are waterbeds of streams that flow from volcanic sources. In some instances you find them also in sandstones and conglomerates. Whatever it takes, as long as you can lay your hands on earth's most priced precious stone.

If you ever had a diamond and lost it, you would probably drive yourself crazy till you found it. It is not some much the amount of money you spent purchasing the stone, it is the joy of owning something so beautiful and them being deprived of it. Imagine what it is like when people get robbed of such stones. They'd be beside themselves with anxiety.
