An examination of the gemmological and spectroscopic properties of CVD synthetic diamonds from Gemesis Corp.
Read MoreHigh-quality CVD-grown diamonds, comparable in colour and clarity to natural diamonds, can be identified using a combination of gemmological and spectroscopic properties.
Read MoreHistorically, global rough diamond production has fluctuated greatly due to a myriad of causes, many of which are explored in this article.
Read MoreThis article presents information about the CVD process, the history of its development, and properties that differentiate the resulting synthetic crystals from natural diamond.
Read MoreThis article chronicles the discovery of primary diamond deposits throughout Canada, whose increasing supply of rough stones will have a growing impact on the world diamond industry.
Read MoreAustralia’s Argyle mine has set records for volume since its establishment in 1983, and is additionally noted for its rare pink diamonds.
