What are ethical Diamonds?


Ethical Diamonds go way beyond conflict-free. A truly ethical Diamond should be 100% traceable and part of a system that gives rock-solid proof that nobody in the supply chain has been adversely affected by the journey of the Diamond from the mine through to the end buyer. Furthermore, ethical Diamonds should help to improve the lives of those working within the supply chain and do no harm to the surrounding environment. 

New look CanadaMark card for diamonds


Our listed CanadaMark diamonds now include the new look CanadaMark card. Shown below, each card features detailed information relating to the diamond. For example, the rough diamond weight, serial number, origin and polished diamond weight. 

For trade clients, we can provide additional photographic support relating to CanadaMark diamonds. Please contact us for help.

Every CanadaMark Diamond comes with the reassurance that it is :

  • Responsibly mined in Canada
  • Natural and untreated
  • Traceable to the mine
  • Meets specific quality standards

At Serendipity Diamonds we are actively engaged in establishing fully traceable supply chains for Diamonds from the mine to the final product.

 As part of our service we can provide traceable CanadaMark Diamonds originating from the Ekati and Diavik mines in Canada. 

Are CanadaMark Diamonds ethical Diamonds?


Yes, absolutely. In addition, Canadamark Diamonds offer the only 100% traceable system for ensuring buyers ethically sourced diamonds. Even Diamond under the Forevermark brand by DeBeers does not give assurance of the origin of the diamond. 

CanadaMark cards and CanadaMark inscriptions


Fully traceable Diamonds provide the consumer with documented information on the origin of their Diamond. Each Diamond carried authenticated details on where the Diamond was originally mined. All of our Diamonds are conflict-free, which is noted on each invoiced Diamond product. Fully traceable Diamonds give the consumer the additional information relating to where the Diamond was mined. Although supply is limited, we can provide a wide range of Diamond shapes, sizes, colours and clarities with fully traceable credentials.

We receive varying goods in different Diamond shapes, colours, clarities and sizes depending on availability. Please contact us with any specific requirements.

The Diavik Mine


The Diavik Diamond Mine is Canada’s largest Diamond mine in terms of carat production. Diavik was established following the discovery of four Diamond-bearing deposits, called kimberlite pipes, in 1994 and 1995.


The mine site is located in Canada’s remote wilderness on a 12 mile square island, at Lac de Gras, Northwest Territories, approximately 185 miles from Yellowknife, the territorial capital, and just 136 miles south of the Arctic Circle.

The Ekati Mine


The Ekati mine is located in in the Lac de Gras region of the Northwest Territories, approximately 185 miles northeast of Yellowknife, Canada. The name means 'Fat Lake.' It is Canada's first surface and underground mine in production since 1998.

BHP Billiton completed the sale of its Diamonds business, comprising its interests in the EKATI Diamond Mine and Diamonds Marketing operations, to Dominion Diamond Corporation (formerly Harry Winston Diamond Corporation).

Ethical Diamond Rings


Most of our ethical diamond rings go beyond conflict-free assurances. We provide not only ethical loose diamonds from our UK showroom, but a full collection of ethical rings made from recycled Platinum or Gold. In addition, we offer ethically sourced diamonds in ring mounts crafted from gold sourced from Fairtrade certified mines. 

Alternative Ethical Diamonds 


Further to Canadamark, we recently introduced lab-grown diamonds into our services. Lab-made diamonds provide an environmentally-friendly, carbon neutral alternative to mined diamonds. Most of our lab-grown diamonds are CVD created using renewable energy sources. As a result, they have a minimal impact on the environment. Read more about lab-grown options on our blog, or talk to a member of our team.
