AnchorCert Gem Lab is once again pleased to sponsor the Scottish Gemmological Association Conference 2015 which is taking place at The Peebles Hydro Hotel from Friday 1st May - Monday 4th May.

Senior Gemmologist Anu Manchanda and Technical Director Dippal Manchanda will both be attending the Conference and representing AnchorCert Gem Lab and Assay Office Birmingham. They are both looking forward to meeting up with colleagues and fellow gemmologists as well as learning more about a wide range of topics which will be discussed during the event.

Subjects ranging from how luminescence can benefit gemmologists to an update on the supply, demand and pricing of gemstones are just a selection of the seminars which will be on offer to delegates.
