The diamond was discovered in the Letseng Mine on September 8, in Lesotho, Africa. Apparently, it had very few flaws, and could be worth millions! http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20080921/sc_nm/lesotho_diamond_discovery_dc

Hey watch it! You are not supposed to post links in posts. Anyway, I did go through that news. It is amazing. What luck the excavation industry behind that mining has! And the cost! It is going to be just as amazing. I wonder what they will use it in thouh, a lot of options, but no idea what to go for. That diamond will sure lead to further discoveries.

Uhm that's not quite correct about the link. If a link is relevant to the discussion and is not an affiliate link then it IS allowed. In fact that links points to the article where the user found the news

Can you even imagine being the person entrusted with cutting one of those and making facets? Not me! I have been accused of having steady nerves, but that I could not do!
