the 10 most expensive diamonds that were sold at auctions
These stunning-looking stones crystallize deep in the bowels of the Earth, under extremely high pressure and temperature conditions. As a rule, diamond deposits are located at a depth of more than 150 km and rise closer to the surface only due to the movement of the Earth's tectonic plates. And after proper cutting, the stones get to auctions, where people are ready to lay out fabulous sums of money for them.
