A '''Diamond''' is a type of [[mineral]] in ''[[Stardew Valley]]''. It can be found in obtained from [[Diamond Node]]s and [[Gem Node]]s in levels of [[The the Mines]] starting at (floors 50. It can also be found +), dropped from [[Duggy|Duggies]] in chest acquired by the Mines (floors 1 - 29), [[fishing]] treasure chests, from [[panning ]], and found in Villagers trash. It also drops rarely from some monsters, such as [[DuggyGarbage Can]]s.

There is a A book in the museum [[Museum]], titled "A Study on Diamond Yields," that contains the following information::''After years of research in the mines, I believe I've learned something about diamond frequency. My research involved only the stones that are scattered about the mines... The ones broken with a pickaxe. Mineral yields from other sources require more research. Diamonds seem to only form at mine level 50 or greater. At level 50, approximately 1 in 500 stones will be diamond-rich.''Despite the comments of this book, diamonds can be found in earlier levels of the Mines. ^{(Needs confirmation)}

"After years of research in the mines, I believe I've learned something about diamond frequency. My research involved only the stones that are scattered about the mines... The ones broken with a pickaxe. Mineral yields from other sources require more research. Diamonds seem to only form at mine level 50 or greater. At level 50, approximately 1 in 500 stones will be diamond-rich." Despite the comments of this book it does appear that diamonds appear at earlier levels in the mine, although extremely rare. An individual player found a diamond as earlier as level 29 in the mines from a regular stone. A Diamond is arguably the best gem for to duplicate in the [[Crystalarium]] as you cannot duplicate a [[Prismatic Shard]] or [[Iridium Bar]].
