Diamond is an allotrope (different form) of carbon.

The word diamond comes from the Greek word meaning unbreakable.

Diamond has a hardness of 10 on Mohs scale of mineral hardness, with 1 being the
softest (talc) and 10 being the hardest.

Diamond is the hardest natural material known and is often used for industrial cutting and
polishing tools.

The carbon atoms in diamonds are arranged in a strong, tetrahedral structure.

1. Bury carbon dioxide 100 miles into Earth.

2. Heat to about 2,200 degrees Fahrenheit.

3. Squeeze under pressure of 725,000 pounds per square inch.
4. Quickly rush towards Earths surface to cool.
-high pressure high temperature(HPHT)- machine heats up and applies pressure
-chemical vapour deposition doesnt use intense pressure, heats up natural gas in
chamber to 2000 degrees , carbon atoms rain on top of diamond to form crystalline
structure
