Acquiring a colored gemstone is more than just a purchase; it’s a reason for celebration. Each gem represents a remarkable and precise set of natural phenomena, orchestrated by none other than Mother Nature herself.
Gemfields’ emeralds and rubies, captivating in their beauty, trace their origins back an astonishing 500 million years. Gazing into these gemstones, one can get lost in a miniature universe, whether it’s the lush, verdant green of an emerald or the fiery red of a ruby.
However, the story of each gem goes beyond its captivating exterior.
Before it found its way into your possession, your gem embarked on a journey, crossing borders, changing hands, and, ideally, bestowing good fortune upon those it encountered along the way.
Gemfields recognizes the significance of ensuring that each gemstone has a positive impact on its place of origin, and it is committed to making that happen.
These precious gems are discovered in remote locations where agriculture plays a vital role in ensuring food security for local communities. Gemfields takes a proactive approach by establishing and supporting farming cooperatives, thus empowering local residents to enhance their livelihoods and create sustainable sources of income that will outlast the life of the mining operation.
Inquiring about the origin of your gemstone is a potent way to ensure that it continues to be a force for good, not only today but also well into the future. Gemfields’ dedication to this mission underscores the belief that each gem holds within it a story of positive impact, far greater than what meets the eye.
