Why lab-grown diamonds are more sustainable<\/h2>\nMined diamond vs. lab-grown diamond<\/h3>\n<\/div>For many decades, the diamond industry faced serious challenges. The mining of mining diamonds was and still is associated with social and ethical conflicts and with serious environmental influences. So-called “blood diamonds” have also gained their fame due to an eventful history. By producing diamonds in the lab, we at Nevermined can avoid all the conflicts that come with mining diamonds:<\/p>\n<\/div>
