Ethical sourcing refers to the transparent and responsible methods used to produce these diamonds without the negative environmental or human rights impacts associated with traditional diamond mining. Unlike mined diamonds, which can sometimes be linked to conflict zones or exploitative labor practices, lab-grown diamonds are produced in controlled environments using advanced technology, ensuring fair labor practices and minimizing harm to the planet. This ethical approach appeals to consumers who prioritize sustainability, transparency, and social responsibility, as lab-created diamonds are free from the ethical concerns of "blood diamonds" and environmental degradation caused by mining activities. Now, let's go over a few methods diamonds are made! People grow diamonds using two main methods: High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT) and Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD).
