Trust is our shared asset. Let’s make it provable.

A proposal to bourses, councils and associations: a neutral, affordable traceability layer that every member can use.

What a diamond is worth

A diamond’s value has always rested on something invisible: confidence. Confidence in its origin, in its nature, and in the people who brought it to market.

Industry bodies exist to protect that confidence. The question is how to protect it when consumers, governments and investors want evidence, not assurances.

Confidence is under pressure on three fronts at once.

Each one asks the same thing of the trade: show where this stone has been.

gpp_good01

Geopolitics

G7 restrictions on Russian diamonds extend to polished stones cut in third countries, so origin must be shown after the cut.

diamond02

Substitution

Lab-grown supply has changed the market. Clear, verifiable disclosure protects natural and lab-grown alike.

visibility03

Scrutiny

Human rights and ESG due diligence are moving from voluntary to expected, and into law.

Strong frameworks exist. None tracks the polished stone.

They certify shipments, companies and declarations. The individual stone still relies on paperwork between businesses.

Kimberley Process

Certifies shipments of rough between participating countries.

Its certificate describes a parcel, not the stones cut from it.

System of Warranties

A warranty statement on invoices at every sale.

Strengthened in 2022 to cover human rights, labour, anti-corruption and AML, but still a declaration.

G7 origin rules

Evidence of non-Russian origin for goods entering G7 markets.

Places a new burden of proof on every midstream business.

The hardest link to trace is the one your members run.

Between the mine and the counter, thousands of mostly family-owned firms cut, trade and set stones. They carry the burden of proof with the fewest resources.

  1. Mining

    Few, large, audited

  2. Rough trading

    Bourses and dealers

  3. Manufacturing

    Many SMEs, many splits

  4. Polished trading

    Lots mixed and re-sorted

  5. Jewellery

    Stones from many sources

  6. Retail

    Few, large, exposed

The midstream. Where most value is added and most records break, and where an affordable, shared tool matters most.

Introducing Diatrace

Diatrace is a stone-level traceability and ESG layer, built to complement the industry’s frameworks, not to compete with them.

Built to be trusted by an entire industry.

A shared tool only works if every member can adopt it without giving anything away.

  1. 01
    Members own their data

    Prices, counterparties and private documents are never public.

  2. 02
    Affordable for the smallest firm

    Zero setup cost, from $1 per stone. Starts from a spreadsheet.

  3. 03
    Open to connect

    A full API lets members and other systems exchange data.

  4. 04
    Verifiable by anyone

    A stone’s journey opens with one scan, with no account needed.

  5. 05
    Neutral on origin

    Natural and lab-grown are traced alike, and always disclosed.

Three ways to work together, each one a step further.

Choose the level that fits your mandate. Each builds on the last.

A small group of volunteer members, a defined scope, and results published to the wider membership.

  1. Month 1
    Convene

    Select 10–20 members across rough, polished and jewellery. Agree scope and success measures.

  2. Months 2–5
    Trace

    Members trace live production at no setup cost, with our team on hand on the floor.

  3. Month 6
    Report

    Joint findings on cost, time saved and buyer response, shared with all members.
