Try and smash one stone with a rock. If it breaks than its not diamonds. Remember a diamond is one of the hardest things to date, made from carbon through millions of years under heat and immense pressure. This is why they are mostly found at immense depths
I am from Angola and i know diamonds, this is not diamonds, to me looking like others type of stones. You can never get clean diamonds from the ground floor. Diamonds come dirty.

This diamond in South Africa brought Apartheid in 1994, made the richest diamond company in the world DeBears British and American, today ther are in Botswana looking for diamond. Opened your eyes Africans.
My worry is.. If these turn out to be diamonds.. How will these people make any money off of them? Uncut and unmarked diamonds may as well be blood diamonds in the eyes of the international market.. Unless they sell them on the black market but then you're courting serious problems with traffickers, poachers, gun runners, the FBI, etc. Maybe the government will offer a buy back for like a couple 100 per stone.
It so sad because they were not found by those who are exploiting the country they want to call them glass, crystal etc, these are diamonds, and good for those who found them,
How dare do they it say it illegal mining leave the people alone even if it not real no cared about the land only mama Africa knows we're her riches is
Think if they dig deeper they will find the real diamond off which the government will myb in five years tym but for now they won't be encouraged to continue digging even if it was the real diamond bcs what's worthy in this country its for government and his cabinet and we will struggle for ever
They can have it its glass. Get Juju he will probably immediately charge you a fee to dig. Fool for following an even bigger thief than the ANC ever produced.
Diamonds are supposed to be the hardest material on earth and quartz I know from experience shatters easily. So try and break them,test them for hardness.

Im sure 1 of those stones have already been tested that's why the government is so quiet
exactly, they will come back and tell them that they are not real.

They're all diamonds, don't listen to them, they don't have what Africa have in the continent, period!
