Rough natural mineral / stone material, heavily included or impure, lacking typical gem-grade diamond crystal habits
Rough natural mineral / stone material, heavily included or impure, lacking typical gem-grade diamond crystal habits · Rough / unpolished / irregular crystalline mass
Not applicable (Rough, unworked stone) Cut
Carat
Difficult to estimate accurately from visual angle, but appears substantial as a rough specimen
Color
Milky white with brownish-black matrix stains and inclusions
Clarity
I3 (Heavy inclusions, fractured and heavily included throughout)
Shape
Rough / unpolished / irregular crystalline mass
Overall Assessment
The specimen appears to be a heavily included, raw mineral or rough stone requiring professional gemological testing to confirm exact mineral composition and gemological viability.
Cut Quality
Not applicable (Rough, unworked stone)
Brilliance
Very low due to opacity and heavy inclusion presence
Fire
Negligible
Scintillation
Poor due to lack of facets and high opacity
Proportions
Not applicable for rough stones
Symmetry
Natural irregular symmetry
Polish
Unpolished, natural rough texture
Fluorescence
Unknown / Untested without UV light
Inclusions
Heavy internal fracturing, dark mineral inclusions, and surface staining
Blemishes
Natural surface roughness, pits, and cavities
Origin
Alluvial or primary host rock deposit (rough field find)
Treatment Detection
No obvious artificial treatments detected; appears in natural, untreated state
Estimated Value
Nominal value as a raw mineral specimen rather than a polished gemstone
Certification Estimate
Unlikely to be certified by major labs (GIA/AGS) as gem-quality diamond; may require basic geological testing
Investment Potential
Low investment potential in current rough state
Similar Diamonds
Industrial grade boart or heavily included rough diamond specimens
Setting Suggestions
Requires professional cutting and faceting to assess true potential, otherwise suited for wire-wrapping or raw mineral collections
Care & Maintenance
Standard gentle cleaning with warm soapy water and a soft brush; avoid harsh impacts due to internal fractures
Interesting Facts
Most mined diamonds are industrial grade rather than gem quality, often used in abrasive and cutting applications
