Which descriptor describes irregular shapes among super deep diamonds?

• A. Inclusion poor
• B. Large
• C. Irregular
• D. Pure

Answer: (C)

When describing diamond shapes, the key idea is to use a term that directly labels the appearance of the crystal’s form. If the outline and facets aren’t symmetrical or evenly developed, the appropriate descriptor is irregular. Super deep diamonds form under extreme and variable mantle conditions, which can lead to growth patterns that aren’t perfectly even, producing irregular shapes. The other descriptors refer to different qualities: inclusion poor means few internal flaws, large indicates size, and pure relates to color or chemical purity, not how the crystal is shaped. So irregular is the best fit for describing irregular shapes.
