PERTH (miningweekly.com) – Diamond miner Lucapa has completed the first sale of alluvial diamonds for the second half of 2018 from its Lulo project, in Angola, generating $2-million in revenues.
The parcel consisted of 2 527 ct and achieved an average price of $800/ct.
Lucapa said on Tuesday that the July sale excluded four large white specials and a pink coloured special, which have been held for sale later this year. This batch included the 114 ct diamond recovered earlier this month.
