@2:53 – OK I got to point something out. We are told Diamonds are extremely rare, and yeah we know they cost a lot if you want one they will charge you for it big time. BUT – Look at that HOLE. Tell me there are rarely finding anything in this hole. I call BS this hole alone cost them Millions of Millions of dollars. They Paid for Workers, Digger, Equipment and Equipment out the ass and they are probably barely making a profit because they are so rare?
I would think if you found one and they are so rare, You are still willing to spend Millions a pone Millions of Dollars on the chance you are going to regain your expenditure, then YOU DON"T believe it. All it takes is for one to be found and some Rich Asshat buys up all the land with in 20 miles and starts Raking in the rewards.
BS I say. Just trying to keep everyone away.

Diamond
Diamond is a form of the element carbon with its atoms arranged in a crystal structure called diamond cubic. At room temperature and pressure, another solid form of carbon known as graphite is the chemically stable form of carbon, but diamond almost never converts to it. Diamond has the highest hardness and thermal conductivity of any natural material, properties that are utilized in major industrial applications such as cutting and polishing tools. They are also the reason that diamond anvil cells can subject materials to pressures found deep in the Earth.
