The De Beers Group has been certified by the Responsible Jewellery Council (RJC).
“De Beers Group of Companies is the largest diamond mining group to achieve RJC certification and we warmly [offer our congratulations],” said Michael Rae, RJC’s chief executive officer (CEO).
“The successful verification assessment was conducted by Firouzeh Siavoshi from SGS, one of the independent third-party auditing firms accredited to the RJC’S member certification system.”
De Beers Group is a founding member of the council.
“De Beers’ commitment to meeting the highest standards is embedded in our commitment to ‘live up to diamonds,’ and guides us in the delivery of our commercial goals,” said James Suzman, the company’s director of public affairs.
“It is particularly pleasing to receive confirmation that we measure up to the exacting requirements of credible and external standards like the RJC’s. De Beers remains committed to supporting industry-wide initiatives like the RJC certification system that reinforce stakeholder and consumer confidence in the diamond industry.”
