Lucapa has recovered a 208-carat Type IIa diamond from its 40%-owned Lulo alluvial mining operations in Angola.
The stone was recovered from the Lizeria area of Mining Block 31.
It is the second +100-carat diamond to be recovered in October, following the recovery of the 123-carat Type IIa from the Lizeria area of Mining Block 19 at the beginning of the month.
Lucapa said the diamond is the third largest to be recovered from Lulo since mining operations commenced.
It is also the 39th +100-carat diamond to be recovered from the mine.
