Liqhobong Mine recovers 70 carat white diamond

Junior diamond miner Firestone Diamond has recovered a 70 carat white, makeable diamond from its Liqhobong Mine in Lesotho.

The development follows after a 46 carat gem diamond that was recovered in December, sold for more than US$1 million at a recently held sale.

Meanwhile the 70 carat diamond was recovered undamaged and will go on sale at the next tender which is scheduled to take place during March 2019.
