The document discusses De Beers and the global diamond industry. It describes how De Beers established a monopoly by controlling diamond mining and sales. It controlled around 80% of the market at its peak in the 1920s and still controls around 40% today. It discusses how De Beers works to control supply and prices through stockpiling diamonds and restricting sales. The document also provides background on major diamond producers, how the diamond trade works, and competitors that have challenged De Beers' dominance like Lev Leviev and Rio Tinto.
This document provides an overview and analysis of the diamond industry from an investor's perspective. It discusses unprecedented changes in the industry structure and financing. Key drivers of future diamond demand are expected to be high net worth individuals and the growing Chinese engagement ring market. While rough diamond supply is forecast to decline after 2018, additional supply from potential new projects will be insufficient to bridge the expected supply deficit. There is uncertainty in short term diamond price development due to challenges in the industry.
Key Views
What will diamond supply look like ten years from now?
Mother Earth decides what types of diamonds are going to be available for consumption. Thus, supply of diamonds generally precedes demand.
Diamond miners produced more diamonds in the last twenty years than in all of history.
At current mining rates, it is possible that we will run out of accessible diamonds within fifty years.
There is large surplus supply of diamonds because of many years of excessive production of polished diamonds. Thus, future supply shortfalls will be specific to a particular type, size and quality of diamond.
New projects in Canada and Russia are positive for the world's supply of gem quality diamonds over the next five to twenty years.

The diamond industry is vital to the Indian economy. India is one of the largest diamond processors in the world and the sector is highly export-oriented. Demand has increased due to socioeconomic factors like rising incomes and changing lifestyles. Supply is dependent on De Beers and new mining opportunities but also faces challenges like political instability and artificial scarcity. The market has some oligopolistic characteristics with a few large players controlling much of it.
1. A huge diamond discovery in Canada's Northwest Territory has sparked a modern-day gold rush, as prospectors stake their claims on the remote tundra.
2. The Canadian diamonds are being extracted from ice and are seen as politically correct alternatives to "blood diamonds" mined in war-torn parts of Africa.
3. One mine alone is estimated to yield 7-8 million carats of diamonds worth $700-800 million over its lifespan.

Nirav Modi is an Indian diamond jeweler who started his own successful label. He was born into a family of diamond traders and trained at his uncle's company, Gitanjali Jewels. Modi began designing jewelry as a hobby but found success with his creations. His brand Nirav Modi is known for using rare and high-quality diamonds set in unique cuts and designs.

The document discusses 11 reasons why gold prices could rise significantly in the next 2-4 years, reaching as high as $5,000-$10,000 per ounce. It cites factors like heavy government debt leading to currency devaluation, lack of new gold supply discovery, central banks and large companies increasingly purchasing gold to diversify reserves, and widespread analyst predictions of much higher gold prices. Over 130 analysts are referenced who foresee gold's peak price being at least $2,500/ounce, with 90 predicting it will surpass $5,000/ounce, within the next few years.
The document discusses the diamond industry market segments and De Beers' role in controlling the diamond supply chain. It notes that De Beers controls the mining of 46% of diamonds and the distribution of 80-85% of rough diamonds. De Beers sorts rough diamonds into categories and boxes and sets the price in advance. Every five weeks, carefully selected partners can purchase whole boxes at the set price. De Beers decides how many diamonds of each quality will be distributed, how the supply will be divided, and the price of diamonds. It faces challenges from increased production outside its control and concerns over the social and environmental impacts of diamond mining.
Prior to 1962, India was the world's largest gold market, centered in Bombay. In 1962, the Indian government enacted the Gold Control Act, prohibiting citizens from holding gold bars and coins. This act was abolished in 1992, liberalizing gold imports. India has large private gold holdings, consumes 25% of world gold production annually, and meets over 60% of its consumption through imports. Gold is an important store of value and symbol of status in India, where jewelry represents 75% of gold demand, mainly among rural populations.
Gold has increased in value significantly over the past decade, rising from $1843.60 per ounce in 2011 to over $1900 per ounce currently. This increase has been driven by financial and political crises that increase uncertainty and decrease confidence in fiat currencies. When stock markets and other assets fall, gold often rises as investors view it as a stable store of value. Major crises like the 9/11 attacks, the 2008 recession, European debt problems, and US debt downgrades have all contributed to rising gold prices by weakening currencies and increasing demand for a stable alternative. Political unrest and high inflation also typically cause investors to seek refuge in gold.

Dicha conmemoración ha originado 25 años de Jornadas para realizar las aplicaciones de la secular tradición española a las circunstancias del presente. Estas páginas interesan a la Historia de la Iglesia, a la Historia de España contemporánea y al periodismo.

Diamonds form deep underground and are mined commercially or alluvially before being sorted and polished in places like Antwerp. De Beers monopolized the diamond market in the 20th century and created the illusion of scarcity, raising prices and fueling conflicts in countries with alluvial mines. While groups like the Kimberley Process aim to reduce conflict diamonds, violence continues in places with easy diamond access like Côte d'Ivoire due to loopholes and black market smuggling.

The document discusses how demand for colored diamonds, especially rare colors like pink, blue, and yellow, has increased dramatically in recent decades due to demand from China, India, and the Middle East. This increasing demand has far outpaced supply and led to substantial price increases and appreciation for colored diamonds, with rare colors increasing even more rapidly in value and some individual diamonds selling for record prices at auction. Colored diamonds are seen as attractive investment assets due to their scarcity and potential for continued future appreciation.
From military engagements to engagement rings bbdmcduffie2
Diamonds form deep underground through extreme heat and pressure and are mined industrially or alluvially from river deposits. De Beers' 1947 marketing campaign popularized diamond engagement rings by convincing consumers that diamonds represent true love and men should spend one month's salary. While De Beers controls supply to maintain high prices and the illusion of scarcity, rebel groups exploit the lucrative diamond trade, forcing civilians into mines and funding conflicts that kill and displace millions. Tracing diamonds is difficult due to smuggling and mixing, but the Kimberley Process aims to curb conflict diamonds despite ongoing issues like violence in Cote D'Ivoire.

De Beers formed a cartel in the late 19th century that controlled the majority of global diamond production and distribution. Through advertising campaigns starting in the 1930s-40s, the cartel created the perception of diamonds as a necessity for engagements and weddings in Western cultures where this tradition did not previously exist. The campaigns were highly successful, with diamonds becoming a mainstream symbol of love, affluence and marriage. By controlling supply and promoting this narrative of diamonds as a status symbol and forever commitment, De Beers established a monopoly that made it the most profitable cartel in history for over a century.
The document summarizes how diamonds are formed deep within the earth, how they are mined, and how the diamond industry has influenced demand. It discusses how diamonds can fund conflicts when mined in unstable regions, leading to human rights abuses. Solutions like the Kimberley Process aim to prevent "conflict diamonds" by certifying their origin, though challenges remain with smuggling and mixing illegal diamonds with legal ones. The ethical dilemma is whether consumers are willing to pay more to ensure their diamonds are conflict-free.
Holiday Consumer Survey Release - 53 Million AmericansDr Lendy Spires
Over 53 million Americans plan to purchase diamonds between Thanksgiving and Valentine's Day, with men and millennials most likely to purchase. Many Americans are unaware of the differences between natural and lab-created diamonds. Natural diamonds are significantly more valuable and rare since they are formed over millions of years in the earth, while lab-created diamonds can be produced quickly. Once informed about natural diamonds' positive impacts on jobs, wildlife conservation, and conflict-free sourcing, three-quarters of Americans are more likely to purchase natural diamonds.
De Beers created demand for diamonds in the US through marketing campaigns. In Africa, militias took control of diamond mines, forcing locals into hard labor and killing many. The Kimberley Process was established in 2000 to certify conflict-free diamonds, requiring tamper-proof containers and banning imports from non-member nations. However, some criticize that it does not truly stop conflict diamond mining or help people, as diamonds can still be sold illegally. De Beers is responsible for benefiting from conflict diamonds for over a decade before addressing the issue, though it acted legally. Ethics and consumer demand now favor conflict-free diamonds.
API - Gold Jewellery and Gems Industry of PakistanPrincess Sidra
This document provides an overview of Pakistan's jewelry industry. It discusses key topics like raw materials, popular designs, production processes, gemstones found in Pakistan, major markets, and challenges. The industry is cottage-based and family-run, with Karachi as the hub. Employment and GDP contribution is substantial. Gold, silver, and artificial jewelry are in demand. Precious stones include emeralds and topaz. The industry faces issues like a lack of resources, disorganization, and security concerns that limit its potential.
This document provides an overview of the global diamond industry, including statistics and charts on supply, trade, consumption, and prices from 2003-2024. It summarizes key trends such as increasing consolidation across the industry supply chain over the next decade, with a few major companies dominating mining, African countries growing processing capabilities, overcapacity reducing in India, and large retail brands dominating consumption. The diamond industry is projected to become leaner but stronger through this consolidation period.
The diamond supply chain faces several ethical issues regarding human rights, the environment, and harmful business practices. Exploration can negatively impact indigenous rights and the environment through practices like forced relocation, deforestation, and pollution. Mining causes further environmental damage and has involved practices like forced labor, poor working conditions, and price fixing that undermine wages. Sorting and distribution later in the chain also present problems like smuggling, which can finance war and terrorism, and mixing of conflict and non-conflict diamonds. Various certifications and codes of conduct have sought to address these issues but have seen limited success due to lack of enforcement and consumer confusion.
De Beers has established a monopoly in the diamond industry by controlling 70-90% of the world's rough diamond production and supply. It achieves this monopoly power by only selling diamonds to a select group of cutters and jewelers and imposing strict rules on how they can purchase and resell diamonds. This vertical integration and control of the supply chain allows De Beers to artificially restrict diamond production and supply to influence prices. However, this monopoly has also enabled "blood diamonds" to enter the market, undermining its legitimacy.
So far in our examination of fancy colored diamonds, we have looked at the most common, yellow, and one of the least common fancy colors, blue. However, pink diamonds are perhaps the most sought after of all fancy color diamonds because of their beauty, and the romantic feelings that these diamonds stimulate in people. Although these diamonds are slightly more abundant than their blue counterparts, this is perhaps set to change in the near future and pink diamonds are currently highly coveted by those in the know.
The document provides information on the history and modern state of the diamond industry. It discusses how diamonds are formed deep within the Earth's crust and the origins of the industry in South Africa in the 19th century. It also addresses the poor working and living conditions miners faced, the role diamonds played in funding conflicts and apartheid in Africa, and ongoing efforts to establish more ethical trade practices through organizations like the Kimberley Process.
Lev Leviev helped convert De Beers' monopoly on the diamond market into a duopoly by opening his own cutting factory in 1977 after being a former De Beers sight-holder. He was the first dealer to operate across the entire diamond value chain from mining to polishing and retailing. Leviev established mining operations and partnerships in Russia, Angola, and Namibia, becoming a major competitor to De Beers. The document outlines how De Beers gradually lost its monopoly in the 1990s and 2000s due to factors like the fall of the Soviet Union, price fixing investigations, and the discovery of new diamond deposits. It describes strategies De Beers employed to maintain market share such as branding initiatives and
The document discusses the history and value of silver as both an industrial and investment metal. It notes that silver has many industrial uses but stocks are dwindling rapidly due to high demand. It promotes silver as a sound investment that provides portfolio diversification and protection against economic instability. It encourages contacting Lear Capital to discuss options for purchasing silver coins, bars, or setting up a silver-backed IRA for retirement protection and investment.
The current price of silver is providing a rare window of opportunity for investors to establish a
sound position before this “poor man’s metal” makes its move higher.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
