Dr. Sally Maga\u00f1a, Gemological Institute of America (GIA) senior research scientist from Carlsbad, California, conducted educational seminars about \u201cIdentification and Update on Laboratory-Grown Diamonds\u201d and \u201cThe Causes of Colour in Natural Fancy-Coloured Diamonds\u201d on January 24th, at the Bharat Diamond Bourse (BDB) convention hall in Mumbai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dr. Maga\u00f1a is an expert in diamond physics, treatments and laboratory-grown diamonds. She has authored and co-authored numerous research articles about laboratory-grown diamonds, temperature effects on luminescence centres in natural type IIb diamonds and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
More than 200 participants gained in-depth knowledge on HPHT and CVD laboratory-grown diamonds, their distinguishing characteristics and identification and detection methods. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cGIA has been on the cutting edge of gemmological research for decades. As new gem materials and treatments emerge, our research efforts have consistently helped us give the trade the assurance of accurate and reliable reports with full disclosures,\u201d said Nirupa Bhatt, managing director of GIA India and Middle East.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
