heat and pressure underground
This mineral sits at the very top of the Mohs scale with a hardness rating of 10, making it the hardest known natural substance on Earth. Formed under intense heat and pressure deep within the mantle, its crystal structure consists of carbon atoms arranged in a rigid cubic lattice where each atom is covalently bonded to four others. While it is world-renowned as a symbol of luxury and endurance in jewelry, its extreme durability also makes it indispensable in industrial applications for cutting, grinding, and drilling through other tough materials.
