Lucapa: Lulo Produces Largest Flawless Diamond Put Up For Auction

Lucapa Diamond Company Limited (ASX: LOM) (“Lucapa” or “the Company”) and its partners, Empresa Nacional de Diamantes E.P. (“Endiama”) and Rosas & Petalas, congratulate Swiss high end jeweller, de Grisogono, on the unveiling of a stunning 163 carat giant gem described by auctioneer Christie’s as the largest flawless cut diamond ever put up for auction.
As quoted in the press release:

Lucapa Managing Director Stephen Wetherall said the Lulo partners were extremely proud to have recovered the rough diamond from which the exceptional 163 carat flawless gem originated. “This spectacular flawless diamond underlines why Lulo is such an extremely special diamond resource,” said Mr Wetherall.
“Lulo produced the highest value diamond production in the world in 2016 and we continue to produce large and premium-value alluvial diamonds from Lulo on a regular basis.” “We believe the primary hard rock source of these exceptional alluvial diamonds will also be a special kimberlite discovery, which is why Lucapa and its partners have ramped up the drilling of the priority kimberlite targets we have defined at Lulo.”
