Natural rough diamond / mineral specimen (likely transparent crystal shard)
Natural rough diamond / mineral specimen (likely transparent crystal shard) · Rough uncut / irregular shard
Not applicable (uncut raw crystal/shard) Cut
Carat
Undetermined visual estimate due to irregular elongated form
Color
Near-colorless to very light tint
Clarity
Included due to visible internal fractures and structural lines
Shape
Rough uncut / irregular shard
Overall Assessment
An interesting raw mineral shard or diamond rough fragment showing natural crystallization features, best appreciated as a geological specimen or for custom organic jewelry rather than traditional faceted gemstone investment
Cut Quality
Not applicable (uncut raw crystal/shard)
Brilliance
Low due to lack of standard gemstone facet alignment
Fire
Minimal, obscured by rough surface features
Scintillation
Absent due to lack of standard faceting
Proportions
Irregular elongated slice or crystal fragment
Symmetry
Asymmetrical raw mineral formation
Polish
Natural crystal face / raw fractured surface
Fluorescence
Unknown without UV testing
Inclusions
Internal fracture planes, structural striations
Blemishes
Natural surface etchings and uneven cleavage planes
Origin
Alluvial or primary pipe rough crystal fragment
Treatment Detection
None detected; appears entirely natural and untreated
Estimated Value
Nominal mineral specimen value rather than cut diamond market value
Certification Estimate
N/A for raw unworked specimens; basic gemological certificate for mineral identification only
Investment Potential
Low as a liquid gemstone asset; valued primarily as a unique geological mineral specimen
Similar Diamonds
Raw diamond crystal shards, industrial-grade rough diamonds
Setting Suggestions
Wire-wrapped pendant or bespoke organic bezel setting to preserve raw character
Care & Maintenance
Store separately to prevent scratching other materials; avoid harsh ultrasonic cleaners given internal fractures
Interesting Facts
Raw diamond specimens showcase the natural octahedral or distorted crystal growth habits before master cutting transforms them into brilliant gems
