A really well-known concern we get asked by our clientele is "How and in which are Diamonds Formed". Clientele acquiring engagement rings with us like to know the origins of the diamond just before it is set in their ring.

Diamonds are formed around 110 to 200 kilometers beneath the earths floor. The initial diamonds have been formed above 2.4 billion a long time back. These diamonds are formed below really substantial temperatures and strain, diamonds are created up of carbon, this carbon is formed by the melting of rocks in the earths upper mantle in which there is a robust concentration of carbon in the rock. Temperature adjustments then change this carbon into a crystal rock with the effect of really substantial strain. For the diamonds to kind from these crystals, you demand really certain temperatures and strain, so you will locate that not all crystals formed will change into diamonds.



Diamonds are then brought to the earths floor in rocks by eruptions or tiny volcanoes from the earths mantle, these rocks are referred to as Kimberlite, named right after a tiny metropolis in Kimberley, South Africa, in which the initial diamonds have been uncovered in the late 1870's.

Diamonds nowadays are mined in approx 20 -30 nations around the world. The initial diamonds have been uncovered in India in the 4th century BC. In the 1700's there have been discoveries in Brazil and then the main discoveries took place in South Africa in the 1870's. This is when diamond offer rose substantially. Other considerable mining nations around the world nowadays are, Russia, Australia and Canada. Africa is nevertheless the greatest producer accounting for approx. 45% of todays creation. Diamonds mined nowadays are then transported to the huge diamond slicing centers in the planet, the largest getting India in which approx. 80% of the worlds diamonds are lower, this is owing mostly to competitive labour charges. Nonetheless, other nations around the world are now in the method of establishing diamond slicing knowledge, Botswana getting one particular that is establishing their diamond slicing expertise substantially.

Lower / Polished diamonds are then transported to the main diamond centers close to the planet in which they are accredited and traded. The huge diamond centers are Antwerp, Dubai, New York and Israel and possibly one particular day Dublin Ireland!!!
