0003437: Large gems on fire burn for several months, producing lots of smoke
I had an unfortunate accident involving magma and merchants. There were left some magma-proof metal items and !!(large blue diamond)!!. It was burning for several months, and smoked a lot.
Drop a large diamond in magma.

At what point, if ever, did it become damaged (i.e. "‼x(large blue diamond)x‼")?

I don't remember the actual time, but it did; first !!x, then !!X, then !!XX, and then disappeared.

For any flammable material that lacks a HEATDAM_POINT, this is seemingly normal behavior - the item will burn for 9-10 months before it deteriorates into nothingness.
