No volcano produces diamonds.

Diamonds are erupted to the surface of the earth through volcanic pipes, which look like upside-down volcanoes. These pipes erupt indicator minerals, some of which include diamonds.

No, not all volcanoes have diamonds. Diamonds are often found in specific types of volcanic rock formations called kimberlite pipes and lamproite rocks, which are relatively rare. Volcanoes can erupt different types of materials, and not all of them contain diamonds.

Diamonds are not found in volcanoes. Diamonds are erupted to the earth's surface through volcanic pipes.

Volcanoes are formed with cones well above the earth's surface. Volcanic pipes are shaped in the inverse, with the top of the pipe being its largest area -- at the surface -- and the cone focused deep within the earth's mantle where diamonds are formed.

Diamonds, which are formed deep within the earth's mantle, are forced to the earth's surface through volcanic pipes, which are a special kind of volcano.

According to Wikipedia, "Volcanic pipes are relatively rare."

Diamonds are erupted to the earth's surface through volcanic pipes. These are flat at the earth's surface, with a cone originating deep underground.

Volcanoes with cones of elevation that rise above the surface do not contain diamonds.

No. Diamonds form deep underground under immense heat and pressure. They are then carried to the surface by volcanic activity.

No. Diamonds are formed by pressure deep within the earth. However, many diamonds are brought to the surface by volcanic activity.

Diamonds are formed from carbon deep within the earth's mantle. In order for the stones to be brought to the surface, a volcanic pipe must erupt.

Diamonds are produced by Mother Nature deep within the earth's mantel.

Volcanoes simply transport the diamonds to the surface by way of volcanic pipes.
