The second largest diamond in history has been found in a mine in Botswana

In BotswanaThe world’s second largest diamond producer has found such a huge diamond Barely fits in the palm of one hand. Also its weight is about half a kilo.

If we compare it to a golf ball, it is huge. And almost as long as a hair removal tweezers.

“This is a very important milestone because it is the largest diamond we have found in the 21st century,” Diamantesa director Anthony Cáceres told LaSexta.

At approximately 2,500 carats, it is the second largest in the world. “It’s a piece that they have to cut to remove the secondary stones,” explains CIRCA diamond expert Angel Cubillo.

This is what was done with the diamond that still leads the stage: the Cullinan Diamond. Over 3,000 carats were discovered in South Africa in 1905.

Then, as Caceres explains, “9 very important stones were removed, all of which belonged to the British crown.”

We last saw the two biggest guys in CCoronation of King Charles of England. The largest, the one in the scepter. Over 500 carats. And the other is found in the crown.

that’s where they were built from Small Diamonds Which the Queen made sure to wear on more than one occasion. Like a snap that she nicknamed Grandma’s Chips, Grandma’s potato chips.

In fact, although they are still the most valuable stone, their demand has fallen by about 6% so far this year alone. And this is because lab-created diamonds are much cheaper.
