Environmentally Friendly Diamonds

Diamond mines typically remove many tons of diamond-bearing rock to produce a one-carat gem-quality polished diamond. In most cases, the material is removed through an open-pit mining process that destroys ecosystems, pollutes the environment and make an adverse social impact on indigenous communities inhabiting areas where mines are situated.

Could a mined diamond be the ultimate symbol of love?

Contrary to mining, no water or air pollution results from the creation of D.NEA diamonds. There are no greenhouse emissions, no devastated ecosystems associated with it, nor do we use hazardous chemicals, radiation or other environmentally dangerous substances and processes. In fact, the only resource consumed is a modest amount of electricity.

D.NEA is proud that the creation of your perfect diamond doesn't involve any invasive activity that diminishes our environment.
