Antwerp -- important center of the wholesale diamond industry: Antwerp is the home of some of the most highly skilled diamond cutters in the world. Diamonds cut and refined in Antwerp are then sold on the diamond exchanges to jewellers throughout the world. Diamonds are a crystalline form of pure carbon highly valued for their beauty and rarity as well as their usefulness in many industrial processes such as the manufacture of diamond cutting drills. Today, South Africa is the main producer of raw diamonds but recently major diamond deposits have been discovered in Canada and new diamond mines are being developed in the NorthWest Territories. Appropriately enough the these Canadian diamonds are being marketed as 'polar bear diamonds'. There is a public relations campaign to make Canadian diamonds more attractive to the ethical consumer by pointing out to diamond purchasers that Canadian diamonds are not 'blood diamonds" a term used to describe diamonds which are obtained illegally or from war zones. These so called 'blood diamonds' are diamonds which are mined, often using slave labor in conflict zones such as Africa. Often the diamonds are used to finance revolutionary or terrorist movements.
