We wanted to learn more about diamonds, so we brought on the expert.

Paul Zimnisky has been an independent consultant analysing the diamond for over a decade, so we used the chance to learn about lab grown diamonds, the viability of the diamond mining industry, what will happen to De Beers, his contrarian industry takes and more.
