DiamonEx updates on Lerala Mine


by Jo Black

The commissioning phase for the Lerala Mine commenced in April with full-scale production of diamonds scheduled for June 2008. First diamonds will be processed and ready for sale in July 2008 through WWW International Diamond Consultants - one of the world’s leading diamond marketing and valuation companies (WWW IDC).

Commissioning of the Mine marks the final phase of an 18-month construction project. While there have been delays in reaching this point due to the high regional demand for fabricated steel products and equipment, coupled with unseasonably heavy rains, the company is very pleased to be bringing Lerala into production in such a short time frame.

The Lerala Mine has a brand new, purpose built, Dense Media Separation Plant (DMS), with 200 tonne per hour through-put capacity that utilises state of the art HPGR crushing technology.
