Angola secured fourth place among the world’s ten largest diamond producers in 2023, generating $1.55 billion from the sale of 9.8 million carats, according to JA Online.
This ranking places Angola behind only Russia, Botswana, and Canada, as reported by the Ministry of Mineral Resources, Oil, Gas, and Biofuels on Facebook, citing data from the Kimberley Process.
Notably, eight of the top ten diamond-producing countries are African, including Botswana, Angola, South Africa, Namibia, Zimbabwe, Lesotho, Sierra Leone, and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).
