Diamcor Mining (DMI) has shared the results of its first tender and sale of rough diamonds recovered from the Krone-Endora at Venetia Project in Q2.
The project is adjacent to the De Beers Venetia Diamond Mine in the Limpopo province of the Republic of South Africa.
In this initial tender, Diamcor sold 1,939.81 carats of rough diamonds, generating gross revenues of US$478,391.90, resulting in an average price of US$246.62 per carat.
DMI has also reported the recovery of two gem-quality rough diamonds in the “specials category” – a 59.25 carat and a 21.85-carat diamond – which have been delivered and are expected to be tendered in August 2022.
Diamcor’s CEO, Dean Taylor, commented on the results.
“We are very pleased with the results of this first tender and sale early in the current quarter and continue to see strong demand for our rough diamonds given their overall quality. Our efforts continue to focus on increasing processing volumes, and the recovery of two large gem quality rough diamonds in the specials category from our recently upgraded facilities at this point is yet further confirmation of the Project’s potential for large high-value gem quality rough diamonds.”
