The world’s second-largest gem quality diamond has been discovered in Botswana, a statement by  Canadian owned Lucara Diamond company has revealed.

The 1,111-carat stone was recovered from its Karowe mine, about 500km (300 miles) north of the capital, Gaborone.
It is the biggest diamond to be discovered in Botswana and the largest find in more than a century.The  largest ever to be discovered is a 3,106-carat Cullinan diamond found in South Africa in 1905. It was cut into nine separate stones, the two largest of which are part of Britain’s crown jewels.
Lucara says two other “exceptional” white diamonds – an 813-carat stone and a 374-carat stone – were also found at the Karowe mine.
“I am truly at a loss for words. This has been an amazing week for Lucara with the recovery of the second largest and also the sixth largest
gem quality diamonds ever mined,”
William Lamb, the CEO of Lucara Diamond said.
Botswana is the world’s largest producer of diamonds and the trade has transformed it into a middle-income nation.
