From the page: "Green diamonds are a separate case: these diamonds can contain clustered nitrogen atoms or they can contain no nitrogen atoms - what gives them their color is that they have been bombarded by nuclear rays during their growth. This bombardment makes them absorb magenta wavelengths, which gives them their green color. These diamonds are extremely rare." The different colors come from minute traces of other minerals and the way light interacts with them within the crystal lattice (in response to iggigic). This is lovely. I wouldn't mind having a colored diamond next time round :-) Too bad my favorite color is green! Guess I'll have to go for a tsavorite garnet after all :-) [see above]
