The amber color is caused by nitrogen in the gem. If traces of boron are found in the diamond there will be a bluish tint to it. If there is some nitrogen in the gen it will be a little green.

Type II champagne diamonds are fairly rare and have some pink red or brown to them. The Type II diamond is pressured during growth and this changes the lattice structure of the diamond.
