Diamond is the traditional stone for engagement rings, and is the [[birthstone]] for [[April]].
Most of the diamond trade of the world is controlled by [[De Beers]], a [[South African]] company whihc uses its near-[[monopoly]] to keep the price of diamonds high. Actually diamonds are common within the surface of the [[Earth]], and if it was not for De Beers they would be quite cheap.{{fact}}
