For years, the gemstone market has been plagued by negative environmental impacts, armed conflicts, and human rights violations. Gemstone buyers have historically struggled to access reliable information about a gem’s origin and journey. This lack of transparency has now been addressed.
Each gemstone mined by Emerald is embedded with nanoscale tracers, creating a unique “DNA” that proves its provenance, called DNA Marking. This information and every step of the gem’s journey from mine to market is securely recorded on the blockchain. This immutable ledger provides an undeniable record of authenticity, ethical sourcing, and responsible practices.
Emerald is committed to building a more sustainable and transparent future for the gemstone industry. With blockchain technology, we ensure the traceability of each gem, from mine to investment.
By acquiring a gem from the Emerald Company, you contribute to an ethical and transparent business model and invest in a luxury asset with historical and cultural value. Join us on this journey towards a brighter future for gemstones.
Provenance is essential for establishing a gemstone’s authenticity, ethical sourcing, and value. It verifies that a gem is genuine, traces its origin to ensure responsible mining practices, and increases its value for collectors and investors.
A clear provenance builds trust and transparency, protecting buyers and ensuring the gem’s long-term worth. For emeralds, provenance is particularly crucial due to the prevalence of counterfeiting and ethical concerns surrounding mining.
