Overall Assessment
An untreated, lower-quality natural rough diamond fragment, primarily suited as a mineral specimen rather than a faceted gemstone
Cut Quality
Uncut (Not Applicable)
Brilliance
Poor due to lack of faceted geometry and heavy internal inclusions
Fire
Minimal due to rough state and lack of optical dispersion facets
Scintillation
Negligible due to lack of standard facet patterns
Proportions
Uncut rough stone with natural octahedral or distorted crystal faces
Symmetry
Natural, Asymmetric Rough Crystal
Polish
Raw, Unpolished Crystalline Surface
Fluorescence
Indeterminate from visual assessment
Inclusions
Numerous internal feathers, fractures, cloudiness, and mineral spots
Blemishes
Natural growth surface features, chips, abrasions, and cavities
Origin
Alluvial or primary kimberlite rough deposit
Treatment Detection
No visible signs of artificial treatment; appears completely untreated rough
Estimated Value
Low commercial value primarily as a mineral specimen or industrial-grade rough
Certification Estimate
Gemological laboratories would not issue standard commercial grading without cutting; would receive a rough/specimen report
Investment Potential
Low investment potential for jewelry use; strictly specimen or collector value

Other industrial-grade or specimen-quality rough diamond crystals
Setting Suggestions
Wire-wrapped rough pendant or organic organic-style bezel setting if kept in raw form
Care & Maintenance
Handle with care to avoid extending existing natural fractures; clean gently with warm soapy water
