Geolat Companies do not endorse Conflict —or Blood Diamonds—rough diamonds, which are used by rebel movements to finance wars against legitimate governments. The trade in these illicit stones has fueled decades of devastating conflicts in countries such as Angola, Cote d’Ivoire, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Sierra Leone.

In order to stem the flow of Conflict and Blood Diamonds, the United Nations has adopted a resolution in support of The Kimberley Process (KP), a joint initiative between international administrative bodies, national governments (including the USA), worldwide industry and civil society.

The Kimberley Process Certification Scheme (KPCS) imposes extensive requirements on its members to enable them to certify shipments of rough diamonds as “conflict-free”. As of December 2009, the KP has 49 members, representing 75 countries, with the European Community and its Member States counting as an individual participant. Kimberly Process members account for approximately 99.8% of the global production of rough diamonds. The legal duties imposed by the United Sates Congress in 2003, requires all US diamond retailers to purchase diamonds from manufacturers who have documentation certifying that the merchandise was obtained through legitimate channels.

At Geolat, we purchase diamonds through suppliers who, like us, proudly adhere to and enforce the standards established by the Kimberley Process. If one of our suppliers was unable to produce documentation certifying compliance with the Kimberly Process, we would immediately cease doing business with those jewelers in Dallas.
