Here are the best that I can remember:
- You must collect gems by digging the ground
- The boulders can crush you to death, or killing enemies
- The main character is not a human, more like a manequin robot
- There're 2 "unique" levels that I can remember:
a.) You can "drop" the boulder into a long box, and transform it into gems, and if you drop gems, it'll become boulder
b.) There's a lava flowing, and you must stop it. If right condition meet, the lava become gems, but if fail, it'll become boulder.
- The graphic is kinda advanced, not like 1980's game. It's more like pre-rendered 3D graphic that become 2D sprites
- The name of one of the file (I assume the .exe one) is "digin" if I can recall

Feel free to ask more, and sorry for the english

It might be a Digger remake:

Is it more like Mr Do / DigDug / Digger or more like Boulder Dash / Rockford / Repton?

Here's Boulder Dash variants & series list, plenty more recent windows entries on them:
