d. diamonds that are sold under the table

The correct answer is: A) diamonds that are sold to raise funds for war.

Conflict diamonds also refered to as "Blood diamonds" are those diamonds that are mined in areas that are controlled by forces that oppose the legitimate and internationally recognized governmet of a country. Therefore they are sold to found military actions against that governmet. This definition was formulated by the United Nations in the 90's because of the civil wars that took place in western and central Africa between rebel groups, which based their economy on the mining of diamonds, and the governments.

The best examples of the usage of conflict diamonds are the conflicts in Angola, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Sierra Leone.
