The discovery of the Ekati Diamond Mine in the Northwest Territories of Canada was a triumph over vast geography, harsh terrain, and formidable odds. As a result of this discovery, Canada has become the fourth largest supplier of gem quality diamonds in the world.
The CanadaMark™ program was created by BHP Billiton, owner and operator of the Ekati Mine. Its purpose- to create a method first in the industry of guaranteeing the origin of its diamonds through a unique tracking system originating from the mine itself!
Certification and Laser Inscription are the two main methods CanadaMark™ diamonds uses to ensure Canada as the country of origin. Known origin and strict standards for quality and cut ensure peace of mind for all consumers.

The CanadaMark™ Certificate of Origin Card
The Certificate of Origin Card ensures the process in which the diamond was tracked and crafted. It includes info on the mine of origin, and the weight of the diamond as a rough crystal and finished product. The diamond’s unique serial tracking number listed can be verified through CanadaMark’s tracking system, and it is also laser inscribed on the diamond for your protection.
