In today’s conscious world, choosing ethically sourced gemstones isn’t just a trend – it’s a commitment to sustainability, human rights, and transparency. At AUWL Assembly, we understand the importance of knowing your gemstones’ supply chain, how they’re mined, and who is affected in the process. Here's why ethically sourced gemstones matter more than ever.
What Are Ethically Sourced Gemstones?
Ethically sourced diamonds and gemstones are extracted and processed in ways that minimize environmental damage and ensure fair labor practices. This includes:
- Safe working conditions for miners
- No child or forced labor
- Responsible environmental practices
- Transparent supply chains
AUWL Assembly only uses naturally mined diamonds, of different color and clarity gradings such as VS1-GH and SI1-GH - certified by reputable certification agencies such as GIA, IGI, HRD, DGLA, SGL, or others on a case-to-case basis.
Why Ethical Sourcing Is Important
1. Protecting Human Rights
Traditional diamonds and gemstone mining in many parts of the world involves unsafe conditions and exploitative labor. Ethically sourced diamonds and gemstones ensure miners are paid fairly and treated with dignity.
2. Environmental Sustainability
Unregulated mining can lead to deforestation, water pollution, and loss of biodiversity. Ethical sourcing emphasizes eco-friendly practices that preserve local ecosystems.
3. Conflict-Free Assurance
Some gemstones, especially diamonds, have historically been linked to funding conflicts ("blood diamonds"). Ethically sourced stones are certified conflict-free especially procured through the Kimberley Process Certification Scheme (KPCS), giving customers peace of mind.
4. Consumer Trust and Transparency
Today’s consumers demand confidence. With ethically sourced gems, you know the supply chain, and that your purchase supports responsible practices.
