I read an article about the company called De Beers which is the largest diamond mining company in the world today, producing over 40% of global gem diamonds from our 15 mines in Africa, as well as sorting and selling the majority of the world’s rough diamonds.
This company has a long and proud tradition of commitment to good corporate citizenship. This commitment is expressed in part through their considerable social investment activities in South Africa, in Botswana and Namibia and through their investments made in social development.
It also leads the industry with its ‘Best Practice Principles’, a set of guidelines, designed to ensure that everyone in the diamond chain observes the highest professional ethical standards of business practice. De Beers believes that adherence to its Best Practice Principles will ensure that consumers will continue to have confidence in the ethical standards of the diamond industry when they are buying a diamond.
