Mining companies say that old slogan doesn’t resonate with millennials.

The Diamond Producers’ Association – a group of leading mining companies, including De Beers – says it will unveil a new slogan at the upcoming JCK Luxury show in Las Vegas that will replace “Diamonds Are Forever,” Reuters reports. The article says that the new campaign will target millennials, with DPA chief executive Jean-Marc Lieberherr noting that the longtime “Diamonds Are Forever” slogan doesn’t resonate with the rising generation. The DPA is also looking to the U.S. market to spark recovery in the global diamond industry, as the U.S. accounts for 45 percent of overall demand.

Wilkerson: “They Feel Like Family”

Newton’s Jewelers in Fort Smith, Ark., was a true institution. But after being at the helm for most of his life, owner (and descendent of the original founder) Kelly Newton decided it was time to retire. He chose Wilkerson to handle the sale. “I’ve known the owners of Wilkerson for a long, long time. I felt at home with them,” he says. The final retirement sale was just a “blast” and the Wilkerson sales team made it so very simple and straightforward, says Newton. Would he recommend Wilkerson to others? Absolutely. “They’ve done incredible work,” says Newton. “They feel like family.”
