History Of Lab Grown Diamonds

By: Shawn Willcoxon

Diamonds have always been considered as women have preferred jewelry. Over the years, diamonds have created conflicts, problems and environmental concerns. Some individuals believe that problems that diamonds cause are becoming obsolete because of the emergence of synthetic or lab-created diamonds. People are initially fooled by the term lab by which it’s called because they think it is a mock up. In previous years, lab-grown or synthetic diamonds had a bad connotation. Today, they are highly accepted by everyone not just for its consistent composition that is almost identical with a natural diamond and for its quality, but because synthetic diamonds were able to solve the problems that natural diamonds have stirred up.

You see, behind the gleaming beauty and elegance of a naturally acquired diamond is the dark story of how it was taken and the negative effects that it imposes on the environment. You have to put in mind that when you are buying a natural diamond, you are condoning child labor and other inhumane practices. More often than not. People from Africa would even consider killing other people just so they could get their hands on the diamond and sell it in the market. On top of that, naturally acquired diamonds are also smuggled in the different countries around the world because the demand is just immense. This mode of acquisition not only makes it dangerous for the people who are involved, but it is also humanely unacceptable. This, together with other factors has brought the prices of natural diamonds up.

Along with that, when buying naturally-occurring diamonds, you are also allowing the destruction of the environment. Just think about it for a second; one carat of a gem diamond will extract almost 275 tons of ore. This number is absolutely staggering and puts the environment on a massively stressful situation. The open cast strip-mining method is done in order to extract the diamond. This method destroys the ecosystem of the location and further damages the environment. This seriously dangerous and destructive method only adds to the many problems of the country in which it was taken from. In the end, they are just shooting themselves on the foot.

Synthetic diamonds completely solve all of these major problems]. And, more importantly, lab-diamonds are also almost identical with real diamonds. The movie “Blood Diamond” has become a great instrument on the need for change regarding this issue. Lab diamonds, for one, spare the ecosystem from being destroyed mainly because these are created by machines and not taken from the earth. Because of that, the price is significantly lowered. On top of that, warlords and illegal syndicates would also lose their means of business. This would result in the dismissal of child labor, armaments supplies, and mining-related violence.
