The use of diamonds as
gemstones of decorative value is the most familiar use to most people today,
and is also the earliest use, with decorative use of diamonds stretching
back into antiquity. The dispersion of white light into a rainbow of
colours, known in the trade as fire, is the other primary
characteristic of gem diamonds, and has been highly prized throughout
history. Over time, especially since around 1900, experts in the field of
gemmology have developed methods of characterizing diamonds and other
gemstones based on the characteristics most important to their value as a
gem. Four characteristics, known informally as the four Cs, are now
commonly used as the basic descriptors of diamonds: these are carat,
clarity, colour, and cut.
Most gem diamonds are
traded on the wholesale market based on single values for each of the four
Cs; for example knowing that a diamond is rated as 1.5 carats, VS2 clarity,
F colour, excellent cut, is enough to reasonably establish an expected price
range. More detailed information from within each characteristic can then be
used to determine actual market value for individual stones. Consumers who
purchase individual diamonds are often advised to use the four Cs to pick
the diamond that is "right" for them; to these is sometimes added the "fifth
C" of cost.
Only a very small
fraction of the diamond ore consists of actual diamonds. The ore is crushed,
during which care has to be taken in order to prevent larger diamonds from
being destroyed in this process and subsequently the particles are sorted by
density. Nowadays, the diamonds are located in the diamond-rich density
fraction with the help of X-ray fluorescence, after which the final sorting
steps are done by hand. Before the use of X-rays became commonplace, the
separation was done with grease belts; diamonds have a stronger tendency to
stick to grease than the other minerals in the ore.
