About Diamonds

about

Diamonds are the hardest known natural material, composed of pure carbon atoms arranged in an extremely rigid cubic structure. Valued for their exceptional brilliance and fire, they are cut to maximize the return and dispersion of light. Their quality is primarily assessed by the 4 Cs: Carat, Cut, Color, and Clarity, which determine their rarity and cost. Formed deep within the Earth's mantle under intense pressure, diamonds symbolize strength, purity, and eternal love.

Mining is the process of extracting rough diamonds or gemstones from the earth using open-pit, underground, or alluvial methods. Each technique is chosen based on the nature and location of the deposit. Responsible mining ensures minimal environmental impact while maintaining high recovery efficiency.
