Black Diamond (Carbonado)
It's the toughest form of diamond. Unlike other diamonds, it's opaque and not transparent.
Additionally, it most likely came from outer space with asteroids and meteorites. One theory for the origin of carbonado is that it originated in a white dwarf or supernova, which occurred at least 3.8 billion years ago. Diamonds on Earth may be rare, but they are very common in space.
-
Orange Diamond
It's among the most cherished colored stones. The orange diamond is one of nature's most beautiful abnormalities, which generates substantial interest from collectors.
Its color is due to the presence of nitrogen, but nitrogen atoms must be grouped in a hyper-specific way while the diamond is forming. When atoms are situated in this particular arrangement, they absorb blue and some yellow light, thus producing an orange appearance. If nitrogen atoms are not in this particular arrangement, the gem will appear yellow.

Green Diamond
Its color is caused by irradiation, usually by alpha particles, during the process of crystal formation.

Brown Diamond
