I don't know if you have seen this or not. You are always on top of things. Diamonds and stones are untraceable. Then throw in all the fakes.

There is a new wrinkle in the diamond industry. Laser etched serial numbers on natural stones. There is an industrial process that can make true diamonds that rival the natural diamond in all respects. To keep prices high, the diamond market is putting laser etched serial numbers on the natural stones. A diamond absent the serial number may soon have a little value as a piece of broken window glass.
