"Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend". So the song goes... But have you ever wondered how they come into existence? Where are diamonds found? What makes them so valuable? Why do they sparkle? Why are some diamonds more valuable than others? How is the quality of a diamond determined? What are the four Cs of diamonds?
