Industrial diamonds
Industrial diamonds. Diamond is a naturally occurring form of carbon which has crystallised under great pressure. The crystals may be colourless and transparent or yellow, brown or black. Diamond is the hardest known mineral and the poorer quality specimens are used extensively in industry, mainly for cutting and grinding tools. Industrial-quality diamonds are also produced synthetically at a price competitive with that of natural diamond

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of industrial diamonds. These precious gems are a naturally occurring form of carbon that have undergone immense pressure, resulting in their exquisite crystalline structure. The crystals depicted in this image vary in color, ranging from colorless and transparent to shades of yellow, brown, and black. Renowned for their exceptional hardness, diamonds are considered the hardest known mineral on Earth. While high-quality diamonds often find themselves adorning jewelry pieces and symbolizing everlasting love, this particular collection focuses on the lesser-known industrial-grade specimens. These lower quality diamonds play an integral role in various industries worldwide. Used extensively as cutting and grinding tools, these industrial-quality diamonds possess remarkable durability and strength. Their synthetic counterparts have also emerged as a cost-effective alternative to natural diamond production without compromising quality or performance. Science Photo Library has masterfully captured the allure of these industrial diamonds through this striking visual representation. This photograph serves as a reminder that beyond their commercial value lies an essential component within countless manufacturing processes across different sectors globally. Intriguingly beautiful yet purposeful, these industrially significant gemstones continue to shape our modern world with their unrivaled resilience and versatility.
