Thank you for this! I felt like a little girl in a candy store watching this. I love Geology and I am fascinated by diamonds 😍🥰. P.s. I am African.

Beautiful stone. Somewhere deep down and currently out of human reach, many such amazing stones await.

And now imagine the human cost to get them. Not worth it. Grow them in a lab.

Background music..⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Diamonds are very fascinating from a geological perspective, not much fussed for them in my jewellery, but their formation is quite interesting. The pipes that bring them to the surface have to erupt at supersonic speeds to prevent them from retrograding into graphite.

The most beautiful blue diamond 🥺💙

Wow, its literally blue from the ocean. The ancient ocean! 🤩 Wow

Fascinating!! Thanks! Nicely done!

Lovely story and, yes, it's nice to imagine a region of Africa that's *_not being raped for its resources._* Still appears to take a dreadful toll on the landscape. The stone is indeed gorgeous. But how, exactly, apart from its earlier proximity to the earth's mantle, does this stone reveal so-called secrets? That part was a bit thin.

Yes , somehow , but is another way for the same old parasites to keep humanity in ignorance , we are the diamonds , looking outside for everything is their job , the cristals are a part of the storry they were as a result of alien weapons after destroiyng that gigantic empire were the vegetal kingdom was based on silicio , the high temperature did the gems , yes they hold information , like us , but the key is we are the central point on everything .

Remember all, this Boswana location is the place that paid for an advertisement to help save and sustain the environment. The hypocrisy.

Absolutely amazing! Very interesting indeed! Congratulations!

I would like to know the details if perfectly ethical sustainable non exploitative method of mining, please.

Okavango... what a beautiful name for an astonishingly beautiful part of the world. A treasure produces treasure.

It’s so beautiful. I love diamonds and blue is my favorite color. A blue diamond, how perfect is nature. Thank you ✝️

I always study things I get involved with. It enhances creativity.

Fascinating stuff! Beautiful diamond….♥️👋🏼🇨🇦

Love from Philippines 🇵🇭

It's very beautiful that I feel like crying. I want to visit a museum full of this beautiful gems and minerals. George Harlow should be featured in WIRED to answer more of our questions about this wonderful diamonds and its relative history.

Ethical my ass.

❤Thank you very much

fantastic .....

Wooow amazing 😁👍

The earth and landscaped looked pretty ravaged .

Zircon are far older than diamonds. The Earth is about 5 billion years old, diamonds are about 3 billion years old and zircons are about 4.5 billion years old.

What a good breed of livestock.

What a great story for Botswana, and perfect timing when the diamonds were discovered! I just hope the employees are paid right and profits shared. I think they should also give every employee one blue diamond a year, everyone from every aspect of the process.

A great idea but not "bloody likely"!!!!!

They should set it on a black background.

love to have that in my jewelry collection.

🤩I L.O.V.E diamonds ❤💞

The true treasures of Botswana are on the surface and not under it. The Okavango Delta is best known to most of us for the natural habitat and incredible diversity and abundance of animal life. One herd of elephants roaming free is more valuable than a whole bag full of diamonds.

Wow! What an incredible stone ~ the colour and clarity are amazing. Ladies, imagine wearing that on your finger ~~~~ Oh well, one can but dream!!! Sweet dreams tonight! Nature is just so wonderful. Thank you Lord for all this beauty You created.

I have a blue diamond engagement ring it's a beautiful gem and I adore watching it sparkle in the sunlight 😊 my husband did an amazing job picking it out

Watching this is making me want to get the old crew together for one final job.

And probably extremely expensive

We already know through tectonics that what is on the surface will eventually be under and vice versa. There should be no question what could be below the surface…

Ohhhhh Awwwww How pretty...whats the secret..It doesn't belong to who has it💯

Infinity stone❤😊

🎄👍🎄 thank's

I loved this video because it didn't just focus on the beauty of the diamond but gave an insight into Why it is so important, beautiful, rare, how it was formed, and how much more it is worth to science than mere $ value to the people of Botswana. The idea that this incredible stone was created so deep inside our Earth and how long ago it is mind boggling.

Blue Blood Diamond

The music shut it off

Dolph had blue diamonds 💎

Let’s go guys fishing near volcano crater maybe we find a pink one.

Right I Could. Turn Them From Nothing

A bit of gushing, then a few pictures of Botswana and a few very light interviews. No substance at all. It is beautiful, it's rare, interesting and exciting. No explanation why it is blue or why it gives insights into the mantle.

Blue glass … I pay 10$ most …

Then lets sell whole network.

The bigest diamond underground in the house it moved in explosives it is big

Hope Diamond 💎 or French Blue Diamond from Mughal India not compare of all Blue Diamonds.

That town did not really look like it was receiving the benefits they mentioned. I mean it’s not the squalor of the cobalt mines exploited for Tesla’s car batteries but it isn’t a China or Middle East boom town either. But it’s hard to see mutated children with stumpy limbs and additional fingers from the drone view. I always enjoy scientist explain away the benefits of interesting knowledge and necessary technology at the cost of human suffering. Science is an exceptional grift. It’s all proven until it’s not. Check the sponsors in the credits. That says it all.

Good glad Botswana invests in their people...... Norway did the same with North Sea Oil to improve life for all their people. What did the British Government do with their share of North Sea Oil? Sold it off cheaply and those companies are still 'profiting' from it today not the British people...................... Sooo wrong...............

So stupid to run music during narration

What's are bostwanas diamonds doing in United states

How much they paid you to lie. A entire mountain destroyed and that is called sustainable. Oaauu the value system is messed up

A prime example of exploitation: Botswana is the world's second-largest producer of diamonds - but it's still one of the poorest countries in the world.

'sustainable' diamond mining?

Someday this stupid carbon stone will be worthless , just a regular stone. Idk why people buying diamonds. Total scam.

Click bait.

"Sustainable diamonds"? 🤦 That's like renewable fossil fuels.

Interesting but unfortunately not informative.

Useless gems 😂

It’s a stone from the ground, why we think they’re so significant is beyond me, absolutely stupid, especially because of the massive humans rights violations attributed to the mining of diamonds.

Who is the one that said colored diamonds aren't worth much? Ha! Please
