Carbon allotrope with superlative physical properties.+ +**Acquired From**: Large Resource Deposits, Ore Vein, Seabed, Sea Monkey+ +**Size**: 1+ +## Overview+ +Diamond is a raw material found on the seabed of many Biomes in *Subnautica: Below Zero*. It can be found as a large resource deposit, which are especially plentiful in the Tree Spires and at Koppa Mining Site.+ +There is a very small chance diamonds can also be found as an Ore Vein. Ore veins are somewhat plentiful in the Arctic Spires, but diamond ore veins are usually located quite deep—beyond 200 meters.+ +### Acquisition Methods+ +The easiest way to find some diamonds in the early-game is from Ore Veins found near the Lava Geysers inside the smaller Thermal Spires Caves. Tread with caution as the eruption from the Lava Geysers can kill a careless player.+ +An alternative way of acquiring Diamonds in the early-game is by navigating to the Deep Twisty Bridges. Because this area is below 200m, oxygen management is key. To maintain a steady oxygen supply in this area, the player may utilize either the Seatruck or a Floating Pump and Pipe. Additionally, the Rebreather and High Capacity O2 Tank make surviving at this depth much easier. However, be aware of the more aggressive fauna within the Deep Twisty Bridges.+ +> **Spoiler Alert**: This section will reveal story-related material if expanded.+ +Diamonds can be acquired from Sea Monkeys which, after Al-An has been downloaded to Robin's mind, offer the player/Robin resources for any pinned recipes.+ +## Locations+ +Diamonds can be found in the following biomes:+ +*   Arctic Spires+*   Crystal Caves+*   Main Crystal Caves+*   Crystal Castle+*   Deep Lilypads Cave+*   Deep Twisty Bridges+*   Delta Island+*   East Arctic+*   Koppa Mining Site+*   Thermal Spires Caves+*   Tree Spires+*   Tree Spires Fissure+*   West Arctic+ +## Large Diamond Deposit+ +![Large Diamond Deposit](https://wiki.subnautica.com/sn/images/DiamondResourceDepositNew_%28BZ%29.png?7561a)+ +**Category**: Large Resource Deposits+ +**Drops**: 8 - 16 Diamonds+ +**Biomes**:+ +*   Arctic Spires+*   Koppa Mining Site+*   Tree Spires+*   Tree Spires Fissures+ +## Crafting Uses+ +### Fabricator+ +| Item | Quantity |+| :--- | :---: |+| Habitat Builder | x1 |+| PDA Upgrade Module 1 | x1 |+| PDA Upgrade Module 2 | x1 |+| PDA Upgrade Module 3 | x1 |+| Seamoth Perimeter Defense Module | x2 |+| Seaglide Fuel Tank | x2 |+| Seaglide | x2 |+| Depth Module 1 | x1 |+| Depth Module 2 | x1 |+| Depth Module 3 | x1 |+| Cyclops Sonar Array | x5 |+| Cyclops Shield Generator | x1 |+| Cyclops Torpedo Launcher | x4 |+| Cyclops Fire Suppression System | x1 |+| Cyclops Bridge Module | x2 |+| Cyclops Hull Breach Repair Tool | x1 |+ +### Architect Component Fabricator+ +> **Spoiler Alert**: This section will reveal story-related material if expanded.+ +| Item | Quantity |+| :--- | :---: |+| Architect Component | x3 |+| Architect Component | x1 |+| Architect Component | x1 |
