ABOUT FAIRMINED GOLD
Fairmined gold is a certification standard for gold that has been mined and produced in a socially and environmentally responsible manner. It was created by the Alliance for Responsible Mining (ARM) in 2014 to provide a way for artisanal and small-scale miners to sell their gold on the international market at a fair price.
The Fairmined certification requires that miners follow strict environmental and social standards, including using safe and responsible mining practices, providing fair working conditions, protecting the rights of women and indigenous people, and investing in community development projects.
By purchasing Fairmined gold, consumers can support responsible mining practices and help improve the lives of small-scale miners and their communities. The certification also promotes transparency and traceability in the gold supply chain, ensuring that the gold can be traced back to its source and that its production has not contributed to environmental degradation or human rights abuses.
ABOUT SPINEL
Spinel is a mineral that is often found in a wide range of colors, including red, blue, green, yellow, purple, and black. Here are a few interesting things about spinel:
Spinel is often mistaken for other gemstones, such as ruby or sapphire. In fact, some of the most famous "rubies" in history are actually spinels, including the "Black Prince's Ruby" in the British Crown Jewels.
Spinel is sometimes called the "great imposter" because of its ability to mimic other gemstones. For example, red spinel can look very similar to ruby, while blue spinel can resemble sapphire.
Spinel has been used in jewelry for thousands of years. It was a popular gemstone in ancient Rome and was often used in signet rings and other types of jewelry.
Spinel is a very durable gemstone, with a hardness of 8 on the Mohs scale (which is just below that of sapphire and ruby).
Spinel has also been found in meteorites, making it one of the few gemstones that can originate from outer space.
