Lucara recovers sixth diamond larger than 1,000 carats at Karowe mine in Botswana
Last month, the miner unearthed the second-largest diamond ever found.
Reuters reports that diamond prices are now above pre-crisis levels after a 35 to 40 percent rise so far this year.
De Beers’ Executive Director, Stephen Lussier says,
Diamonds are more scarce than before the crisis. And there are three markets where demand is very strong: China, India and the United States.
