London, United Kingdom (24 August, 2011) – Quality Diamonds, one of the UK’s largest certified diamond retailers operating both online and offline through their sales offices in Hatton Garden and Milton Keynes, comments on the relevance of the Kimberley Process in preventing blood diamond trading.
The Kimberley Process Certification Scheme (KPCS) is a process designed to make the origins clear of rough diamonds from sources which are free of conflict funded by diamond production. The integrity of this scheme was brought under the scrutiny of BBC’s Panorama programme recently, when evidence was uncovered of unethical diamond mining practices in Zimbabwe’s Marange diamond fields.
Although there can never be a cast-iron guarantee about the provenance of diamonds, David Hurwood of Quality Diamonds believes the public can rest assured that the Kimberley Process is a robust system that works the majority of the time.
He comments: “At Quality Diamonds, we work hard to ensure that all of our polished certified diamonds come from legitimate and conflict-free sources. This gives our customers confidence and peace of mind when purchasing from us.”
