Diamonds are not the rarest stones in the world, that's actually a sapphire. DeBeers control the diamond market, they have secure warehouses full of diamonds & keep their price artificially inflated & high by carefully controlling their release into the market & the use of sleek advertising & psychology. It was DeBeers who convinced women they needed diamond engagement rings

It takes a ton of work to even find a gemstone deposit. I've been mining gemstones and precious metals for the past 5 years to turn into jewelry for my business. Most of these stones are worth every penny for the time, money, and work put into finding them. The Ekati diamond mine in Canada took nearly 20 years to find and exploration and setting up the mine costed over a billion dollars.

It's great to have the history for these stones but the pictures you showed in relation to the Sancy Stone were Henry III and IV of England not of France as it should have been. Indeed, the reason Henry III of France wore the hat (and others) that the diamond was used to decorate was because he was embarrassed by his baldness.

please list your title the most valuable diamonds in the world and not the most valuable jewels. Because I cannot stand diamonds and I ran through your video to make sure that they were all diamonds. There are much more beautiful stones and rarer stones out there than diamonds. Not only have there been stones that have been taken from their home countries against the will of the people. There is conflict diamonds. And there’s a controversy of DeBeers hoarding diamonds to artificially raise the price. So people who glorify diamonds to me aren’t worth hearing or seeing from. Please give other gemstones a chance and show the beauty of them instead of always having to talk about diamonds. Blah blah blah
