A 2,492-carat diamond, the second-largest ever found, has been discovered in Botswana
A massive 2,492-carat diamond, the second-largest ever found, has been discovered in Botswana at the Karowe mine, owned by Canadian company Lucara Diamond
This find is the largest since the 3,106-carat Cullinan diamond was unearthed in South Africa in 1905.
The Cullinan diamond was famously cut into nine separate stones, many of which are part of the British Crown Jewels.
The Karowe mine, located about 500 kilometers (300 miles) north of Botswana's capital, Gaborone, is where this extraordinary diamond was found.
The government of Botswana has confirmed that this is the largest diamond ever discovered in the country
