Gahcho Kué unearths its largest diamond yet
The Gahcho Kué diamond mine in Canada’s Northwest Territories has delivered its largest-ever diamond– a 157.4 ct gem of exceptional quality, offering a morale boost for operator Mountain Province in a year that has been tough for diamond miners.
The recovery shows that the mine, although a high-volume producer of predominantly smaller diamonds, does have the ability to produce diamonds of exceptional size and quality, said CEO Stuart Brown.
