The Hallmark of Quality Canadian Diamond is unique among Canadian diamonds. The Hallmark of Quality Canadian Diamond complies 100% with the Canadian Diamond Code of Conduct and exceeds the limitations of other Canadian diamonds by monitoring the whole process of mining, production and cutting under one operation.

Each Hallmark of Quality Canadian Diamond is graded to the strictest standards with the world's most sophisticated instruments:

Cut grading:	Measured using Megascope diamond technology and G.I.A. Facetware reporting all diamond cut information in a complete format with all relevant angles and percentages
Colour Grading:	Measured using a G.I.A. registered master set and backed up by the Gran full- spectrum colorimeter.
Clarity Grading:	A grade is arrived at using the opinions of at least two experts, all G.I.A. trained.
CanadaMark:	The CanadaMark logo on the girdle of our diamonds is the absolute guarantee that the Canadian diamond that bears it has never left the custody of the mine owners from crystal rough to final production. It carries the full power and authority of BHP.Billiton, operators of the Ekati mine, the largest mining company in the world.      Link to CanadaMark

The Hallmark of Quality Canadian Diamond representatives have a mission to present a diamond graded to a standard higher than any existing institute so that any appraisal will achieve the grade represented on the Certificate or better. When this criterion has been met the Maple Leaf - Crown - and letter R hallmark are lasered on the diamond. Each stone is also branded with an identity number and CanadaMark logo which can track the diamond from mine to consumer. The Hallmark of Quality Canadian Diamond is accompanied by the most beautiful and informative certificate in the industry which will give the consumer confidence in every detail of their Canadian diamond purchase.
