Money Metals Exchange, a leading U.S. precious metals dealer, has begun offering VULT diamond investment units to its investor community.

Recently named precious metals "Dealer of the Year" by industry ratings group Bullion.Directory, Money Metals news reaches over 1,100,000 readers. The company's experience with nearly 100,000 customers, and $120 million in annual revenues helped them conclude that VULT was "a breakthrough in precious commodities investing - tradable, graded diamonds - ounce for ounce, up to 5,000 times more precious than gold."

In its announcement, Money Metals stated "...collection-quality diamonds are now a great way to diversify your portfolio of tangible assets. Graded, registered VULT diamonds are available in five denominations with initial offer prices ranging from $10,000 to $250,000."

"This is the first time," the bullion company's president Stefan Gleason noted, "diamonds have been transformed into a liquid, portable and fully fungible asset - like gold and silver bullion."

"Of course, we are very pleased with our Money Metals Exchange partnership," said Joseph Lipton, VULT's inventor and CEO of Secured Worldwide, the New York-based firm working to develop collection-grade diamonds as a global asset class.

"Their business philosophy - safeguarding investors' assets from financial turmoil and the devaluing dollar, without paying costly middleman mark-ups or experiencing high-pressure, bait-and-switch sales tactics - is perfectly in line with our mission to make diamonds the most dense, portable, and fungible investment choice," said Lipton.

MoneyMetals.com explains that "the VULT system is a genuine innovation which will change the diamond market forever. It is backed by serious professionals who can deliver the products, systems, controls, and values our customers deserve."

"We've worked very hard to make this product a reality," Lipton commented. "And we are certain this diamond investment model will appeal to investors to become an iconic and lucrative alternative investment vehicle in our troubled times."
