London-listed Gem Diamonds has recovered a high-quality 442 ct Type II diamond from its Letšeng mine, in Lesotho.

CEO Clifford Elphick says the recovery of the 442 ct diamond “is further confirmation of the calibre of the Letšeng mine and its ability to consistently produce large, high-quality diamonds”.

A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this diamond will be used to fund a special community project, as agreed with the miner’s partner − the government of Lesotho.
