What are diamonds without cruelty?

The

growing pressure of consumers on the diamond industry has led to a self -governing movement between the main diamond companies to care more careful monitoring of its product. The result was clearly marking some diamonds, suggesting that they are without cruelty, which means that they were not involved in a diamond store that rages throughout Africa. Consumers are advised to buy diamonds without cruelty to make sure that the gems they wear do not contribute to the civil war and other similar conflicts.

Blood diamond is a diamond that was involved at a certain point in the trade for weapons. Blood diamonds are a big problem in African countries such as Sierra Leone, Angola and Liberia. These diamonds are often illegally smuggled from diamond mines and are used in a shop for weapons and other military supplies; In some cases, they are actually smuggled into diamond mines so that they can enter the supply chain of commercial diamonds. Tingle blood orDiamonds are supported by suffering, death and terrorism, and some consumers are against being part of this trade, even unknowingly.

In response to these concerns, several humanitarian organizations proposed to create a designation for diamonds without cruelty if the diamond company could provide the supply chain and ensure consumers that the products they buy are legitimate. The Diamonds campaign without cruelty is a similar campaign without dirty gold, another consumer awareness campaign that is designed to make people think about the sources of their jewelry. The idea is that the first world consumers can have a strong impact on the markets they add, and that consumers could help stop the diamond trade with a conflict.

Some diamond companies have an ideal position to take advantage of the desire for crueltyamanty. For example, Arctic diamonds can be maintained completely separate from the African supply chain of diamond and many Canadian diamond companies are already certifying their diamonds as without cruelty, and even providing their diamonds individual registrations and authentication of authenticity so that consumers can ensure their origin. Companies mining in Africa face major obstacles because diamonds are small and easy to smoke and it is very difficult to ensure that the supplier chain is secured, especially when ruthless sellers receive non -certified diamonds. Humanitarian groups are interested in cooperation with the main diamond companies in this matter and are discussed in several proposals for the certification of diamonds without cruelty from Africa.

In 2000, in Kimberly, South Africa, several major diamond distributors met to talk about ways to provide diamonds and prevent the sale of conflicting diamonds. Several measures were taken, spolOutly promising Scheme Certification Process Certification, which creates a chain of secure countries and suppliers to buy and sell diamonds without cruelty. However, the process is largely regulated by them, and many humanitarian groups have claimed that other measures are needed, especially from within countries that are strongly affected by trade in conflicting diamonds. We hope that the consumer's pressure on diamonds without cruelty will make it easier to certify for diamond companies easier and profitable.
