Lucapa Diamond Company Limited and its partners have announced the recovery of more large diamonds from the Lulo Diamond Project in Angola.

 

The latest recoveries include diamonds weighing 103 carats and 83 carats (pictured), both of which were recovered from Mining Block 8.

 

"The 103-carat light brown diamond and 83-carat Type IIa diamond continue to evidence the special nature and potential of the Lulo resource," the miner said.

 

The 103-carat diamond is the ninth 100+ carat diamond recovered to date from Lulo, the largest being the Angolan record 404-carat diamond sold for $16 million in 2016.

 

The latest large stone recoveries follow the recovery in November 2017 of two exceptional Type IIa D-color gems weighing 129 carats and 78 carats, the firm said.
