A 209.9 carat Type II stone unearthed!
Petra
Diamonds recovers Cullinan Mine
Next
sales cycle may offer the stone!
Petra
Diamonds Limited confirms that it has recovered a 209.9 carat D colour Type II
gem quality diamond at its Cullinan Diamond Mine. This is the third +100ct Type
II D colour gem quality diamond recovered since March 2019 and the fourth such
stone in the current financial year.
The
recent recovery again demonstrates the prevalence of these types of stones in
the Cullinan ore body, with an improved incidence of large and high-value
stones as the C-Cut Phase 1 block cave progresses across the footprint, and the
ability of the mine’s plant to recover the full spectrum of diamonds. The stone
is expected to be sold during the fourth quarter ending 30 June 2019.
The
Company has also confirmed that ‘The Legacy’, the exceptional 425 carat D
colour Type II A diamond recovered from the Cullinan mine on 29 March 2019,
together with this stone, will be offered for sale during the course of the
Company’s next sales cycle in South Africa.
Appointments
to view these stones in Johannesburg can be made by contacting the Company’s
Head of Sales and Marketing, Greg Stephenson.
