Abstract: The objective of this paper is to analyze the factors favoring the smuggling of rough diamonds in Cameroon. To achieve this objective, we carried out a survey in the eastern region of Cameroon using the quota sampling method, the data processing was done using mainly a factor analysis by the analytical principal components (PCA) method. The study proposes five key components that promote diamond trafficking among actors in Eastern Cameroon helping to bring a new direction in the fight against trafficking in precious stones.
