The Discovery of a Rare Diamond…Both Colorless and Pink!!
“A breathtaking 37.41-carat diamond split between pink and colorless zones has emerged from Botswana, a discovery so rare it challenges everything we know about the formation of natural pink diamonds.
Botswana has done it again. Just when the diamond world thought it had seen it all, from the record-breaking Lesedi La Rona to the Motswedi, one of the largest diamonds ever found, the southern African nation has unveiled yet another natural wonder: a half-pink, half-colorless diamond weighing an astounding 37.41 carats.
Discovered at Botswana’s famed Karowe mine, this extraordinary rough diamond is unlike anything gemologists or collectors have ever seen in this size. Measuring roughly one inch long and containing two sharply divided color zones, it represents an almost impossible convergence of geological conditions. According to experts at the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) laboratory in Botswana, which examined the stone, the find is “astounding”, not just for its size, but for the sheer rarity of its dual coloration.
Below, learn more about Botswana’s rare half pink diamond discovery —and the science behind its extraordinary formation.”
