Not a diamond; appears to be raw quartz or glass slag
Not a diamond; appears to be raw quartz or glass slag · Uncut or heavily fractured raw crystal/irregular mass
Uncut / Raw Cut
Carat
Cannot be reliably determined from visual angle alone
Color
Colorless with external reflections
Clarity
Heavily included/fractured, low clarity if evaluated as gemstone
Shape
Uncut or heavily fractured raw crystal/irregular mass
Overall Assessment
This specimen is a raw, unpolished mineral mass rather than a faceted diamond, lacking the optical and physical properties of genuine diamond.
Cut Quality
Uncut / Raw
Brilliance
Low due to lack of standard facet proportions
Fire
Minimal dispersion observed
Scintillation
Poor light return due to irregular surfaces
Proportions
Non-standard raw formation
Symmetry
Irregular
Polish
Rough / Natural fracture surfaces
Fluorescence
Unknown without UV testing
Inclusions
Extensive internal fractures, feathering, and inclusions
Blemishes
Surface chips, natural growth marks, and irregularities
Origin
Natural mineral specimen or synthetic quartz slag
Treatment Detection
No obvious artificial treatments detected, likely natural crystal growth
Estimated Value
Minimal value as a mineral specimen or raw quartz
Certification Estimate
Standard gemological labs would not certify this as a diamond
Investment Potential
None as an investment gemstone
Similar Diamonds
None, as this is not a diamond
Setting Suggestions
Wire-wrapping or bespoke organic bezel setting if used as a raw mineral pendant
Care & Maintenance
Avoid harsh impacts to prevent further fracturing
Interesting Facts
