A Billion-Year Journey: The Origin of Natural Diamonds

Diamonds are not merely luxurious gemstones—they are geological wonders. Formed pure carbon deep within the Earth’s mantle at depths of 150 to 200 kilometers, diamonds endure immense pressure and extreme temperatures ranging from 1,000°C to 1,300°C over a period of 1 to 3.5 billion years.

• Volcano Express: Deep-origin volcanic eruptions brought these ancient treasures closer to the surface via kimberlite pipes.

• Extreme Hardness: Thanks to their rigid covalent crystal structure, diamonds score a perfect 10/10 on the Mohs hardness scale, making them the hardest natural substance known to humanity.

A diamond is a timeless testament to the power and patience of nature.
