Their color is due to the presence of nitrogen BUT nitrogen atoms MUST be grouped in a hyper-specific way while the diamond is forming.

If nitrogen atoms are not in this particular arrangement, the gem will appear yellow.
Its color is caused by irradiation (usually by alpha particles) during the process of the crystal formation
