GSL — the name you can trust.

GSL (Gem Studies Laboratory) was started over twenty years ago to meet the demand in Australia for a first-rate diamond laboratory. Today it has become the best known independent diamond certification and gem identification laboratory in Australia.

Over the years that GSL has been in business we have identified and valued countless diamonds and coloured gemstones, issued hundreds of opal and coloured stone certificates and tens of thousands of diamond certificates.

Jewellery retailers, manufacturers, and wholesalers all use the services provided by GSL, along with diamond and gemstone importers, Australian Customs, the NSW and Federal Police Forces, the Department of Public Prosecutions, antique dealers and Australia’s foremost auction houses.
The people who bring their valuable gems to GSL come for the certainty. We take our client’s trust very seriously and have built our reputation on it .

Recording Australia’s Gemstones.

Earning national recognition in 2001, the Australian Opal and Gemstone Photographic Library was started with the realisation that as many as 95 per cent of Australia’s best opals end up overseas.

It now documents some of the finest gemstones and opals in Australia and offers future generations the chance to access a fantastic visual reference of Australia’s opal and gemstone history. The images are widely used in both Australian and international publications.

Our partnership with the GAA.

In 2003 GSL and GAA (the Gemmological Association of Australia) formed a historic alliance as part of our ongoing commitment to the Australian gem and jewellery industry.GAA’s endorsement of GSL as its diamond certification and gem testing laboratory ensures that our facilities meet the highest standards and that all techniques and equipment used in our laboratory are state-of- the-art and in line with the latest international standards.
