What are Black Diamonds?
These gemstones, also known as Carbonado diamonds, were first mined in Brazil in the 19th century. This relatively new stone is now mined from several other countries such as Australia and Africa.
Contrary to popular beliefs, Carbonado diamonds are not exactly black from the beginning. During the 1950’s, scientists from the United States and Russia began synthesizing black diamonds in their laboratories. From this innovation, now there are several treatments employed to change the color from crystal clear to ebony black.
Some carbonado diamonds were exposed to radiation to modify its color. To the untrained eye, this diamond has a stark black color. But when you expose it under fiber optic light, black diamonds emit a dark green color.
Some carbonado diamonds are included with graphite. The high amount of graphite in the diamond makes the stone appear jet black. At the same time, it makes the stone very hard to cut and polish.
Then again, there are natural black diamonds which were not treated in any way. These natural gems are the 202-carat Black Star of Africa and the 67.5-carat Black Orloff.
