What is GreenSource?
RapNet’s GreenSource program is part of our Source Verification program, created to increase transparency, trust, and ethical sourcing in the diamond industry. It verifies a diamond’s country (and mine) of origin, and highlights diamonds that meet high ethical and environmental sourcing standards.
It provides transparency and builds trust between buyers and sellers, while promoting responsible practices across the diamond supply chain.
Why Does GreenSource Matter?
Trust: Buyers can be confident in the ethical sourcing of GreenSource diamonds.
Transparency: Promotes transparency in the diamond industry.
Sustainability: Supports responsible sourcing and industry best practices
Current GreenSource Criteria
A diamond qualifies for GreenSource status under one of the following conditions:
Tracr Verified and the Tracr report confirms that the source is either DTC (De Beers) or Botswana.
Tracr ID and the seller declares the source is DTC or Botswana
GIA Diamond Origin Report (DOR) with a verified source of DTC or Botswana.
GIA Grading Report with Industry Disclosure: The GIA report indicates the origin as DTC or Botswana, based on industry disclosures in RapNet’s GIA database.
How to Search for GreenSource Diamonds

Where to See GreenSource Status on RapNet

You can also filter specifically for Green Star diamonds on the search engine.
Note for Sellers
If your diamond meets the criteria, RapNet automatically applies the GreenSource symbol—no extra steps needed!
Rough Diamond Source Country
Due to global sanctions, particularly on Russian-origin diamonds, RapNet has introduced source transparency tools for rough diamonds.
Sellers can specify the country or mine of origin when uploading diamonds to provide greater clarity and support compliant trading.
