Origin

THE NORTHWEST TERRITORIES

Your diamond comes from the Ekati, Diavik, and Gahcho Kué mines in Canada’s pristine North, about 200 kilometres south of the Arctic circle. With preferential hiring practices and training programs for northern residents, indigenous-led wildlife monitoring programs, and industry-leading water recycling and composting systems, these mines are at the forefront of community engagement, environmental stewardship and waste management practices.

GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS

Mining in Canada is governed by more stringent regulations than other countries. Federal, territorial, First Nations agreements — they’re all in place to protect Canada’s environment and its people. All mines that are part of the Canadamark program must meet Canada’s stringent environmental regulations, and many go above and beyond.

KIMBERLITE PIPES

Rough diamonds are found in kimberlite pipes, which were formed in the magma of the Earth’s mantle billions of year ago then forced up in volcanic eruptions. While more than 2,000 kimberlite pipes have been discovered around the world, only a couple dozen are worthy to be mined.
