Diamonds are found in a number of countries including Australia, South Africa, Brazil and the Russian Federation. In fact, there are two main types of diamonds. These are colourless diamonds (about 25% of those found) , which have only a few
impurities
and are usually made into jewellery, and black diamonds—the remaining 75%—which contain a lot of impurities, and are used in industrial
applications
. Industrial diamonds are also produced artificially.
The largest diamond ever found is the Cullinan diamond. It weighed 620 grams and was found in a South African diamond mine in 1905. It was bought by the Transvaal Government for £150,000, and then presented to the King of England, Edward VII. The diamond was then
