Gemological Science International (GSI) has expanded its global footprint with the opening of a new laboratory, located in the hub of the coloured gemstone industry.
Led by industry expert Meenu Vyas, FGA, the facility in Jaipur, India, will offer all of GSI’s core services, as well as a dedicated division specializing in coloured gemstone geographical origin and identification.
“We are thrilled to continue GSI’s global expansion and open another laboratory in India,” says the organization’s president and co-founder, Debbie Azar. “The demand for GSI certification and origin testing for natural and lab-grown diamonds, as well as coloured gemstones, continues to grow and the Jaipur lab will help us meet that global need.”
The laboratory will also offer various educational programs, including entry-level and advance coloured stone identification courses, seminars, and lectures.
