Recently, Canada has discovered a large mine in the Northwest Territories
and has been reputed to contain some of the finest diamonds in the world.
Moreover, a Canada engagement ring may be significantly less expensive
than engagement rings you would find in the U.S. or Europe. In addition,
purchasing Canadian diamonds gives you the piece of mind of owning stones
that were mined without the human cost of conflict diamonds.
In Angola, Sierra Leone, and Democratic Republic of the Congo, miners
(including children), work under extreme conditions and forced to mine
rough diamonds for rebel groups and their allies to fund insurgencies.
Although a law has been passed in 2002 to prevent conflict diamond trafficking,
it is still extremely difficult to control the flow of conflict diamonds
into Western markets. 70% of all Canadian rough diamonds are shipped to
Belgium for cutting. In the process, conflict diamonds may mix in. If
at all possible, make sure you are getting certified Canadian diamonds
that have been cut in Canada.
