Washington company WD Lab Grown Diamonds has warned it may turn to the courts to prevent retailers from infringing its licensed patents for using chemical vapour deposition for growing diamonds. Company president and founder Michael Zukas said an investment from WD this week allowed the company to consider legal action. Huron Capital Partners said it is targeting retailers initially, as it can't always trace diamonds back to a source.
