Dar es Salaam - Petra Diamonds Limited announces the recovery of a 23.16 carat pink diamond of exceptional colour and clarity from the Williamson mine in Tanzania.
The stone is an example of the high quality pink diamonds for which Williamson is known and is the most significant recovery by Petra from the mine to date.
Pink diamonds are only found in a handful of mines throughout the world and their rarity ensures that they are one of the most highly coveted of all the fancy colours.
The diamond will now be offered for sale by appointment in Antwerp as part of Petra’s December tender process.
