MINING –
This title covers all aspects of the diamond industry in Botswana, starting with early prospecting, evaluation, mining, sorting, valuation, polishing, cutting and Botswana diamond jewellery. In fact the complete Botswana “Diamond Pipeline” is covered. It is an extremely colourful and positive book, hard backed and stitch bound, which highlights the great benefit that the diamond industry has had on the evolution of Botswana as a country. Remarkably, given Botswana’s 40 years history of Diamond Mining, it is the very first time that a book has covered the subject in its entirety and includes information and images on all the main players.
