Lithic Scrap / Geologic Specimen
Lithic Scrap / Geologic Specimen · Rough / Irregular Flake
Uncut / Natural fracture Cut
Carat
Estimated 10-15 carats based on size relative to carpet fibers
Color
Opaque Gray-Blue with brown matrix coloration
Clarity
Opaque (Non-gem quality)
Shape
Rough / Irregular Flake
Overall Assessment
This specimen is not a gem-quality diamond. It appears to be a common terrestrial rock or mineral flake, possibly a piece of chert, flint, or silicate-rich stone with blue/gray pigmentation.
Cut Quality
Uncut / Natural fracture
Brilliance
None; matte finish prevents internal light reflection
Fire
None; lacks dispersive properties
Scintillation
None; lacks facet pattern
Proportions
Undefined due to lack of standard cut
Symmetry
None; irregular shape
Polish
None; matte textural surface
Fluorescence
Not observable without UV light; likely inert
Inclusions
Highly included (Industrial grade / Common mineral)
Blemishes
Rough, uneven surface with significant surface variations
Origin
Terrestrial geologic origin; appears more like common chert or quartz than diamond
Treatment Detection
None detected; appears to be raw geologic material
Estimated Value
Negligible market value ($0-$5)
Certification Estimate
Not eligible for GIA/AGS diamond grading; suitable for mineralogical identification only
Investment Potential
None
Similar Diamonds
No comparable faceted diamonds; similar to common minerals like Chert or Raw Sodalite
Setting Suggestions
Not suitable for traditional jewelry setting; could be a collector's stone
Care & Maintenance
Keep away from harsh chemicals; handle as a brittle mineral specimen
Interesting Facts
The stone possesses a conchoidal fracture pattern typical of silica-based minerals like quartz or flint.
