What is the value of a diamond rock?

Your question is about a raw diamond. A raw diamond must be evaluated for its natural colour and clarity. Then you can work with a diamond cutter to estimate the value of a cut diamond that can be 'rescued' from the raw diamond. The diamond cutter may offer to purchase the raw stone, or work out another arrangement with you for its ultimate value. Typically more than 50% of the carat weight of a raw diamond is lost during the cutting process.

Very variable - some just look like lumps of dirty stone, while others have a visible octahedral shape and plenty of sparkle. Some look like little sugar cubes. The reference below has some photos of specimen examples. The largest diamond ever found (The Cullinan or Premier Diamond) appeared pretty unspectacular as it had no crystal faces and an eroded surface - see the second reference for a picture.

How many facets does a raw diamond have?

Some raw diamonds are shaped like a pyramid, and some like two pyramids joined at the base. However, not all raw diamonds have these facets. In truth, the sides of raw diamonds are not properly known as 'facets', because the plane of the side is rarely absolutely flat, until it is cut and polished by a diamond cutter.
