Diamonds are basically worthless anyway - its only the hording by de Boors that makes them valuable.

Do you have any of those worthless rocks you want to send my way?

Diamonds are one of the hardest substances on Earth. They have lots of uses, all over engineering and manufacturing. The only reason they are as expensive as they are is because of their uses in jewelry. If no one wanted diamond rings, they'd be a lot cheaper and widely used in industry instead of personal luxury.
