Ethical and sustainable diamonds
The story behind our story
We want to share the story behind these beautiful diamonds with you. It is important to know their creation process and the cause that gave birth to these gems.
These created diamonds are born as a consequence of great environmental awareness on the part of the jewelry industry, due to the exploitation of the environment, the depletion of resources, war financing and social abuse that cause the extraction of mined diamonds.
For this reason, diamonds created and grown are considered “Ethical Diamonds”, free of any environmental damage, socially responsible and conflict-free.
Socially Responsible
Free of social and environmental impact caused by mining. BORNMINE diamonds are Conflict Free since they are created in a laboratory reproducing the method that nature provokes, which allows us to obtain exactly the same composition of mined diamonds, but without affecting the human rights of communities.
Conflict Free
Our diamonds are Socially Responsible since in their creation process we do not affect our ecosystem, nor is there financing for mines where exploitation and violation of human rights can occur.
Eco friendly
Diamond mining has caused environmental devastation, severely damaging land and water, resulting in soil erosion and deforestation in areas where the mines are located. In some extreme cases, diamond mining can collapse entire ecosystems.
Laboratory diamonds are ecological since they do not exploit the earth for their creation, on the contrary, they take care of the planet.
Using the same method as nature, our diamonds, created with a natural diamond seed and carbon particles, are exposed to high temperatures and high pressure, replacing the earth's volcanic heat and atmospheric pressure. Basically, it takes the process that nature carries out when creating a mined diamond and puts it into practice in a laboratory.
What makes these gems considered diamonds is because they share a certain definition, a certain hardness, and a certain chemical structure. In this sense, lab-created diamonds are exactly the same as mined diamonds.
Advantages and Differences
They have the same chemical composition and crystalline structure as mined diamonds, as well as the same physical and optical properties. BORNMINE diamonds are within the top 1% of diamonds, and are “Zero carbon footprint”. They obtain the United States Certificate from “Natural Capital Partners” of the first 100% “carbon-neutral diamond producers” diamonds. referring to the efficiency of energy used appropriately in its technology, achieving zero carbon emissions when creating diamonds.
Created diamonds compared to mined diamonds have basically three differences:
The creation time of the diamond. A created diamond takes weeks, while mined diamond takes millions of years.
Price. Due to the oligopoly of 3 companies in the mined diamond industry, there may be some control of demand, in case of created diamonds they are 100% fair prices that represent the value of the diamond. The traceability of created diamonds is very simple, in the case of mined ones it requires more logistics processes. Because of these differences, created diamonds are between 30 and 40 percent better priced than mined ones.
Created diamonds are pure in all their processing senses, they do not harm the environment, nor do they contribute to excessive labor forces.
In fact, created diamonds, in some cases, have fewer impurities and defects than diamonds extracted from mines because they are made with greater dedication and care by man, making them brighter, whiter and more resistant than mined diamonds.
