Blue Diamond is a census-designated place (CDP) in Clark County, Nevada, United States.

[3] The community includes a park, private pool, library, elementary school, event hall, church, and mercantile / gas station.

The mercantile (general store) was built in 1942 and originally sold household staples and sundries to residents who were mostly miners at the Blue Diamond Mine.

[4] The nearby gypsum mine was purchased in 1923 by the Blue Diamond Corporation of California.

[6][7] The village of Cottonwood became known as Blue Diamondville that year, when a post office opened under that name.
