It very clearly explains the different options available, which can be confusing to many people. The one other major synthetic diamond producer is AOTC, available through their retail front-end D.NEA. Our HPHT diamond growth machines use about 2kw of power while running, which compared to mining operations is very modest. We offer yellows up to two carats, blues up to 1.25cts and whites up to one carat. http://d.neadiamonds.com Best Regards, Eric Excellent article!

Great article! I thought it might be helpful to offer some additional information regarding Canadian diamonds in response to the above claims. The environmental and social impact of mined diamonds does vary greatly depending on the origin. Unfortunately, many of the world’s diamonds are harvested using practices that exploit and degrade children, communities, the labor force, and the local environment. Canada is one of the leaders of ethically sourced diamonds, and their social and environmental standards are light-years ahead of many other diamond rich countries that are currently involved in the diamond industry. These high standards protect caribou and other wildlife, water, and fish habitats, and include land reclamation and independent monitoring. Other sources of ethical origin diamonds are also beginning to become available. We are just beginning to offer one of the first sources of diamonds that are mined, cut, and polished in Namibia with fair labor and strong environmental practices. These diamonds provide much-needed jobs, health care and education for Namibia’s people. What’s most important is that customers continue to ask where their diamonds originate from, and under what conditions. Thanks again for the great article!
