    There was a recent Orchid thread about Hoover and Strong using 100%
    recycled materials now (I think they call it EcoGold). 

    "Hoover and Strong's Ecogold"
    http://www.ganoksin.com/orchid/archive/200701/msg00866.htm

    I don't know the details on that, though. Off the top of my head,
    Columbia Gem House sells with fair trade practices. They sell both
    loose and mounted gems. Also look into Out of our Mines, which is a
    small company that mines and cuts their own products. 

I hope that helps,
