LSE-listed Gem Diamonds has recovered a high-quality 233 ct Type II white diamond from its 70%-owned Letšeng mine, in Lesotho, the highest dollar per carat kimberlite diamond mine in the world.

This follows the recent recovery of a high-quality 442 ct Type II diamond, one of the world's largest gem-quality diamonds to be recovered this year. 

The company noted in a trading statement published in July that the mine had produced about 43 275 ct of diamonds in the first half of this year.
