Whenever you march into a jewelry store and take a look at the diamonds, with whatever settings they may have for sale, it is hard to understand that diamonds are in fact uncommon. The majority of people don’t even take a minute to think how those diamonds were laid upon the jewlerer’s suitcase….
There is plenty of work that is made before a diamond is offered for sale to the general public. For every 1,000,000 diamonds that are taken out of the mines just one will be located whose quality is of one caret diamond. In order to locate a 2 caret diamond nearly 5,000,000 diamonds have be mined!
At least 200 tons of ore have to be mined to locate one little diamond. But that’s not enough: less than 20% of the diamonds that are mined are good for jewelry use.
Hence, the next time you enter your local jewelry store request your seller to see the one carat diamonds. I hope you will consider these diamonds with greater appreciation, since it is really one of a million.
This article was very useful for a paper I am writing for my thesis.
