'''Diamonds''' are particularly precious, carbon-based [[gems]] that are generally found in [[gabbro]] [[cv:Stone layers|layers]]. The rarer diamond types are the most valuable gems in ''Dwarf Fortress'', along with the [[star sapphire]] and the [[star ruby]].

==In real life==
 
 
 
Historically, diamonds were ranked among the five cardinal gems. The others included [[amethyst]] (no longer as valued due to New World deposits), [[emerald]], [[ruby]], and [[sapphire]]. Its value has increased beyond that of the other precious gems since the 19th Century, most famously as a result of advertising campaigns.
