Do you really care about where your gold has come from when you are looking for a new ring of necklace. Most people couldn’t care less because, unlike diamond jewelry, there is a lot on controversy surrounding the mining of gold. With diamond you really have a duty to ensure that the stones you buy have been mined by a company who has an impeccable human rights record. You don’t want to be financing terrorism or brutal regimes after all.
Global production of gold is co-ordinated to a large degree by the World Gold Council with most of the worlds supply from countries such as South Africa, Australia, Russia and Brazil. If you are interested in such things, why not ask your jeweler where the gold band on your ruby ring was made. It will be interesting to discover if they actually know.
