Don't know much about diamonds, or gems in general, but doesn't that stone look like only half of an original stone?

They don’t talk to much about the diamond mines in Canada.Debeers has one north of Yellowknife that produces good carat opened around 2016.

Not sure if it wasn't just formed into that shape. 🤔

Do you remember when there was a lot of talk about the potential diamond mine here in Colorado.

I was selling drilling accessories to the mines back then and had a sales manager asked me if I was calling on that diamond mine, to see what a potential prospect for business it might be. I'd had already determined it was mostly a lot of hype and told that manager he needs to pay attention to the information I give him and not sit around reading magazine articles to get an accurate prospective on the directions we need to pursue.

I can not believe the price of gold glad I kept some back. You know us old miners we got have a little poke to carry around might want to go to Cabo and do some deep see fishing and thaw out.
