WDC Responds to Time Magazine Article on Conflict Diamonds
Zero Tolerance for Conflict Diamonds
We at the World Diamond Council, as the representative organization of the global diamond and jewellery industry at the Kimberley Process, agree that consumers should be able to buy diamonds with the confidence that they are sourced in a way that supports local communities and not armed conflict. Due to the success of this unique and UN-mandated system, more than 99% of diamonds are indeed from sources free from conflict.
