Beneficiation

SALE OF ROUGH DIAMONDS
The group makes its total South African production available to the local industry. By utilising a tender sales system, we ensure that the second largest diamond production, by value, in South Africa is available to all potential purchasers rather than being sold to a select number of core clients. The group also offers, on a regular basis, small-value tender sales at the Johannesburg Diamond Bourse to aid the local low-capital participants in the South African diamond manufacturing industry. In addition, we are actively pursuing a beneficiation strategy that seeks to satisfy the requirements of all key stakeholders and which aims to support the objectives of the recently promulgated amendments to the Diamonds Act.

POLISHING FACTORY
Urembo Diamonds (Pty) Limited, a small-scale black economically empowered joint venture polishing factory, has been established in Johannesburg and is in full production phase. The establishment of the factory forms part of the group’s local beneficiation strategy and further aims to support the objectives of the recently promulgated amendments to the Diamond Act.
