Diamond Information
Diamonds possess a value, both visually and economically that has endured with the passing of time. The first diamonds discovered were found in a riverbed in India around 800 BC as a result of a volcanic source that has never been found. Royalty were recorded wearing diamonds as early as 1300 AD. The first engagement ring is said to be have been given by Archduke Maximilian of Austria to Mary of Burgundy in 1477 starting the tradition of diamond engagement rings.
In 1867, a 21 carat stone discovered on the banks of the Orange River, South Africa, started a great diamond rush. Between 1870 and 1891, no less than six kimberlite pipes were discovered in Kimberley.
Natural diamonds are formed at certain conditions of high-pressure and high temperature that only exist at depths of 140 to 190 kilometers (90 to 120 miles) in certain parts of the Earth’s mantle. The correct combination of temperature and pressure required to form diamonds is only found in the thick, ancient, and stable parts of continental plates called cratons. Diamonds formed at depth are brought close to the surface through deep volcanic eruptions, forming igneous rocks known as kimberlites and (more rarely) lamproites.
Cratons are restricted to areas of the world including South, Central, and West Africa, Canada, Brazil, Russia, India and Australia – all areas that produce or have produced diamonds.
Once recovered, rough diamonds are sorted by experts in a controlled, secure environment, and categorized or grouped into parcels for tender.
The rough diamonds are sorted into various parcels according to their shape, size, clarity and colour, and it is at this point that potential gem quality diamonds are separated from industrial diamonds. Industrial diamonds are lower-quality stones which are not suited for gem purposes, but are suitable for use in various none-gem related applications due to overall characteristics of diamonds (IE; drill bits, cutting tools, medical devices, etc).
Once sorted into appropriate packages, the diamonds are delivered to an accredited diamond bourse for tender in conjunction with various other producing mines goods. Tenders are typically held on a regular basis every four to six weeks depending on demand, and attended by the world’s diamond buyers who purchase goods on behalf of their clients, or for their own use.
Traditionally in the past, the majority of diamonds were sold through De Beers’ centralized selling channel, the Central Selling Organization (CSO), but it is now common for many companies, such as Suburban Minerals, to sell their rough diamonds to accredited diamond bourses and receive the best possible pricing.
Lota Bay (Bahia de Lota) Project
Lota Bay is located in the Gulf of Arauco, in the Municipality of Lota, Concepcion Province, Chile, South America. The project is a bituminous thermal coal deposit that lies on the seafloor to a depth of 10 meters and is directly adjacent to the shoreline of the bay, and is easily accessible by local industrial infrastructure, including a major dock and processing plant facilities. The concession is under exclusive option to Suburban Minerals, which has the right to acquire 100% of the project.
The resource, which sits on the harbor bottom, is there as a result of 145 years of dumping and spillage, in transit, of coal that was mined during the life of the nearby Lota coal mining operations, which were exhausted and shut down in the 1990’s. The initial reserve calculations in zone 1 of the concession are 275,000 proven, and 90,000 probable, tonnes of recoverable bituminous thermal coal having the following characteristics: 6700 Kcal/Kg, has less than 1% sulfur, and contains 14% ash.
Zone 1 of the concession encompasses 660,000 square meters of sea floor, where the coal rests in stratum, as well as two hectares of industrial land at the foot of the dock adjacent to the resource, where the land based coal preparation work will take place. All the necessary infrastructure is in place on the site; grid power, water, sewage disposal, highway and rail access, as well as a ready labor force from the nearby city of Lota, population 52,000.
The Lota Bay Coal Project has the support of the Chilean Government and the local community, which will benefit significantly from job creation as well as from environmental remediation and cleanup. Financial modeling shows conclusively that the recovery operation is economically viable and profitable at prevailing market coal prices and at the current proven resource level.
