Natural Diamond: Diamond formed geologically over millions to billions of years and mined from the Earth.
Natural diamonds form under heat and pressure deep in the Earth's mantle over timescales of 1-3 billion years. They are then transported to the surface by volcanic activity and mined. Natural diamonds carry provenance through the Kimberley Process and major retailers increasingly offer origin-traced stones. See /guide/lab-vs-natural for comparison with lab-grown.
