London-listed Gem Diamonds has recovered a 212.91 ct Type II white diamond at the Letsěng mine in Lesotho.

This is the thirteenth diamond greater than 100 ct recovered this year.

As previously reported in Mining Weekly, Gem recovered a 126.21 ct Type II white diamond and a 122.20 ct Type II white diamond earlier this month.

Gem owns 70% of the Letšeng mine, which is known for the production of large, exceptional white diamonds, making it the highest dollar per carat kimberlite diamond mine in the world.
