BUYING A DIAMOND - an impartial guide

KNOW YOUR DIAMONDS

BLOOD DIAMONDS

Roughly half of all diamonds are mined in central and southern Africa, although considerable sources of the mineral have been discovered in Canada, India, Russia, Brazil, and Australia. Diamonds are mined from kimberlite and lamproite volcanic pipes deep within the Earth where high pressures and temperatures enable them to form and travel to the surface. The mining and distribution of natural diamonds are subjects of frequent controversy over the sale of blood diamonds or conflict diamonds by African paramilitary groups. Be assured that DiamondGeezer.com has a strict 'NO BLOOD DIAMONDS HERE' policy and each diamond sold by DiamondGeezer.com has a solid audit trail back to its source via an industry control known as the Kimberley process.
