EGL USA’s Envira Series Report

I hope you’ve all read the latest news about EGL introducing this new report that confirms the diamonds and precious metals in the evaluated piece are responsibly sourced in conflict-free and environmentally conscious methods.

Giving a full-circle emphasis on environment friendliness, EGL-USA delivers the Report on recycled paper with soy-based ink. In addition, the report includes the signature elements of EGL USA’s renowned diamond certificates: professional evaluations of shape and cutting style, carat weight, clarity, color, measurements, finish and cut grade, National Jeweler.

Okay—here’s my question—every single article I’ve read…here, here, here, and here says the same thing—NONE of the articles tell us how EGL USA determines the diamonds and metals of the evaluated piece are: conflict-free and environmentally friendly????????? I have put in a call to EGL USA and an email—hopefully I’ll know soon—do any of you?

Side note: Many times I have asked my larger branded companies for a copy saying all their diamonds—in remounts as well as jewelry are from conflict-free sources and none of them (BIGGER DESIGNERS as well) have been able to put into writing or fax me something except one.
