The ASX-listed Lucapa Diamond Company has announced the recovery of a 208 ct Type IIa diamond from the Lulo alluvial mining operations in Angola. This diamond is the third largest to be recovered from Lulo since mining operations began in 2015.
Up to this point, Lulo has yielded 39 diamonds, each weighing more than 100 ct. This recent discovery closely follows the recovery of a 123 ct diamond at the same mine.
Lucapa owns the Lulo mine in partnership with Endiama and Rosas & Petalas. Additionally, the company owns the Motheo diamond mine in Lesotho, as well as exploration assets in Australia and Africa.
