Company News: Kopane Diamond Developments
Updated: 03 Aug 2010
The Liqhobong diamondiferous kimberlite pipes were discovered in the
late 1950's by Col Jack Scott, who also discovered the Letseng-le-Terai
mine. In 1978, a small scale artisanal mining operation was commenced by
the Liqhobong Co-operative. This operation continued for eighteen years
until 1996, during which period, some 93,000 tonnes were mined
producing 33,000 carats. This production included a 22 carat blue-white
stone from the Satellite Pipe and a 32 carat blue-white stone from the
Main Pipe.
