Memberships | EverGreene Jewelery What's With The Bear Out Front of the Store? People ask us all the time "What's with the Polar Bear out front?". It represents Polar Bear North American Diamonds. A large percentage of our diamonds are North American Diamonds. Mined from Ekati Diamond mine, the largest mine in North America. The clearest diamonds in the world. Located 200 kilometres south of the Arctic Circle in the Northwest Territories (NWT) of Canada, the EKATI Diamond Mine is Canada's first diamond mine. Annual sales from EKATI represent approximately three per cent of current world rough diamond supply by weight and six per cent by value. Why Polar Bear Diamonds?: The Polar Bear - the majestic and unforgettable icon of the Arctic - has become the universal symbol of quality for diamond lovers worldwide. The Polar Bear Diamond(TM) is the original Canadian diamond, the very first to be mined in Canada and sold as a truly Canadian diamond. Since its debut in 1999, the Polar Bear Diamond(TM) has become known worldwide as among the finest and safest diamond investments. It represents exceptional quality and undisputed purity.
