Digital Diamond Rush

How to Purchase Rough Diamonds

Purchasing rough diamonds is extremely difficult unless you have industry connections and access to your own Gemologist to inspect stones for you. These limitations make it near impossible for first time investors to enter the market.

This key problem was our motivation for creating KimberLite Token with the mission of "Making Diamond Accessible to All".

Through the power of Web3 technology we have built a platform where investors of any size, with no expert knowledge can access Gem Grade Diamonds with an internet connection.


Buying Rough Diamond The KimberLite Way

We carefully select the best diamonds exported by BSR Global each month and create a unique 'digital representation' of individual stones, in the form of a 'Token' stored on the Blockchain, which we call an eDiamond.

An important feature of our eDiamonds is that they act as proof of ownership to the actual rough diamond. In other words, if you own the eDiamond (the virtual digital token) you also own the real-world physical diamond.

When purchasing one of our eDiamonds all critical documents relating to the actual physical diamond, proving not only its quality but also that it was legitimately sourced, exported and is held safely in bank storage, are included with each diamond:

  • 3D Scan of the Rough Diamond

  • Kimberley Process Certificates (KPC)

  • Export and Import Documents

  • Third-Party Gemology Report - Confirming Quality

  • Storage Receipt with the Location of the Physical Diamond

Investors can view these documents online at anytime allowing them to verify the diamond and its quality before making a purchase.

The bank storage receipt (being the one document that proves ownership of the stone) is turned into a 'Token' on the blockchain - allowing investors to easily and efficiently purchase their rough diamonds online.


Ease of Buying and Selling

One major advantage of Tokenized Real-World Assets (RWA) is that they can easily be purchased and sold online 24/7 using the Blockchain.

This ease of sale makes them more 'liquid' than a conventional asset which are often difficult to sell because of the complications in transferring ownership between buyer and seller.

With our tokenized eDiamonds, ownership is contained within the digital token which can be transferred on the Blockchain between buyer and seller instantly without difficulty at anytime night or day.


How to Buy a Digital Diamond

We have created KimberMarket an online store built especially for buying and selling rough diamonds in digital form.

Here buyers can browse available stones, review their documentation and even watch professional videos showcasing the natural beauty of each gemstone.

When they find their dream rough diamond for investment, it can be purchased, instantly and effortlessly, exclusively using our native KimberLite Token.

Once funds have been received, which takes less than a couple of minutes, the 'Digital Token' (eDiamond) along with full ownership rights to the physical diamond is transferred to their account.


Swap Virtual Assets for the Physical Diamond at Anytime

Swap your virtual diamonds for the physical real stone and receive free delivery

A key feature of our KimberLite ecosystem is the capability to seamlessly 'swap' between virtual and physical assets whenever desired.

Holders of our eDiamonds can easily exchange their tokenized assets (digital tokens) for the actual physical diamonds held in bank storage at any time without incurring any additional charges.

This unlocks exciting opportunities, enabling individuals with internet access to not only invest in diamonds but also effortlessly transition between virtual and tangible assets.

Upon acquiring the physical asset, investors can explore various possibilities, including having the diamond cut into a polished gem, significantly enhancing its value.


Own a Piece of Digital Luxury

Can not afford a whole diamond? What about part of it? - Tokenization allows investors of any size to purchase a share in one of our luxurious diamonds through the power of ‘Fractionalization’.

Our Tokenized diamonds, eDiamonds, are created with a global investor base in mind to ensure accessibility for investors from all backgrounds. In addition to purchasing complete diamonds, our platform also allows for the acquisition of fractional shares in a diamond, called an eCarat.

KimberMarket boasts a diverse range of investment opportunities, featuring esteemed large diamonds, and captivating 'fancy colored' stones.

The capability to own fractional portions, an eCarat, of these highly desirable digital luxury assets through tokenization opens up a whole new level of investment possibilities. This innovation is accessible to individuals, regardless of their investment capacity.
