The article doesn't specify whether the diamonds are industrial use or the kind that are used for jewelry. I think that is an important distinction.

I know that Herkimer diamonds are actually quartz so I assume that NY imports real diamonds from abroad, then processes them for an exportable product whether for industrial use or vanity.

NY's greatest export is its people.
