BOTSWANA – Canada’s Lucara diamond has discovered a 2,492 carat diamond at its Karowe mine in Botswana.
It’s one of the largest stones to be excavated.
Lucara did not reveal the stone’s gem quality but its size would make it the second largest rough diamond discovered to date, after the 3,106 carat Cullinan diamond found in neighbouring South Africa in 1905.
After being cut and polished, it became part of the British crown jewels.
The company presented the diamond to Botswana’s President Mokgweetsi Masisi on Thursday.
Botswana is the world’s top diamond producer by value.
