You've got TNT, but you're wondering how much I have to spend on my TNT to make me a special shield of diamonds. Well, I have the answer.
Let's say you find some diamonds at every 750 block, and that's the normal rate of finding it by TNT, so you'll need 250 TNT to find a small amount of diamonds.
But if you're looking to find a full stack, and assuming you find four diamonds every time we calculate the quantity,
That is probably the most inefficient way to mine for anything. It's fine f I r making a big deep ragged hole in the ground but for mining it's too messy and you lose too many blocks. Diamonds are rare, I certainly wouldn't want to lose some with tnt. Also too costly and time consuming to make.

750×16÷3=4000
You will need 4000 TNT(62.5 stacks)
Sounds neat, but unfortunately I need all my TNT to maintain my cover in the Creepers gang.
