A method of forming a superabrasive component for an earth-boring tool comprises disposing a first volume of particulate superabrasive material on a surface of a base structure. A first carbon-containing precursor material is deposited onto the first volume of unbonded particulate superabrasive material. An energy beam is directed onto the first carbon-containing precursor material to form a first volume of bonded polycrystalline superabrasive material having carbon-carbon atomic bonds between adjacent particles of the first volume of particulate superabrasive material. The method may be repeated to form a superabrasive component with multiple volumes of bonded polycrystalline superabrasive material. Additional methods of forming a superabrasive component, a superabrasive component, and an earth-boring tool are also described.
