Laurent Cartier, On Ethically Sourced Gemstones Posted on May 16th, 2008 by Marc Choyt Introduction: This post is an ongoing discussion of fair trade issues in gemstone sector. It was first posted on the Madison Dialogue list server. Laurent has worked on issues relating to artisanal mining in Madagascar and has studied global gem supply chains. Midway through this writing, Laurent poses a question to me personally which I respond to in a companion post. Laurent raises several critical issues around marketing, sourcing and spin that gets to the heart of why the fair trade gemstone market poses so many challenges to the jewelry sector.
