These diamonds are significantly cheaper, made with renewable energy, and using 3D printing technology is a quicker and safer alternative to mining. The traditional diamond takes millions of years of pressure and heat for carbon to form into a crystal structure and make a diamond within the earth. There can be impurities within the diamond that can make it less valuable. This is why mining operations
