Press Release: Singapore Exchange Mainboard-listed Sarin Technologies Ltd. (U77.SI), a worldwide leader in the development, manufacturing and sale of precision technology products and services for the planning, processing, evaluation and measurement of diamonds and gems, is pleased to announce that the Sarine Light™ Light Performance platform and grading methodology is featured as a cover topic in the November/December 2013 issue of Gems & Jewellery going online today.

The article, in the prestigious magazine, discusses the issue of the shortcomings of the 4Cs (“The diamond trade accepts that the traditional 4Cs do not always convey an accurate indication of how a diamond will look in reality”), the need for an accurate consumer friendly alternative (“The challenge for any alternative approach has been to develop a scientifically robust way to quantify a diamond’s appearance while providing an overall grade that can be understood by consumers”) and the methodology applied by Sarin in the development of the Sarine Light™.

The article explains at great length just what affects a diamond’s beauty, the four light performance parameters – brilliance, fire, sparkle (scintillation) and symmetry, how the patented Sarine Light measures these parameters, how the grading scale used by the system was developed and how a specific diamond’s light performance grade is derived based thereon.

Uzi Levami, the CEO of Sarin, commented, “We are very proud that such an esteemed industry periodical has seen fit to feature the Sarine Light as a cover story and to discuss its scientific merits at such length. We are further enthused by Gem-A’s, the Gemmological Association of Great Britain, intent to add light performance and the Sarine Light to its curriculum.”
