Operated by De Beers between 1977 and 1982, Letšeng reopened operations in 2004 and was acquired by Gem Diamonds in 2006.<br /><br />The average elevation at the mine is 3,100m above mean sea level, making it the highest diamond mine in the world. The mine consists of two adjacent primary near vertical kimberlite pipes the Satellite and Main, with confirmed vertical depths of 495m and 655m respectively. The average grade of these resources is 1.72 carats per hundred tons (cpht). With approximately 14% of all stones being larger than 10.8 carats (ct), the production profile is more akin to that of an alluvial than kimberlite mine.<br /><br />The average price per carat achieved at Letšeng in 2007 was US$1 997 per ct, relative to an industry average of US$81 per ct. As such Letšeng is a remarkable mine producing some of the world’s remarkable diamonds including large gem quality diamonds that sell for the highest per carat price of any kimberlite mine.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjH2l5tGavYR5PEdQVJKkAfKKaJvH6pxad_qjhS_vC3WUrJuI91YVz-6oBnEhkLbbuhQw7oLM6zBDXz7848TZlFi_yeB4jbJOv6EG4B1kKQRQtS-xs6nAA7tqmc1BPXL9AdbMvymmVDOYav/s1600-h/Letseng+drilling+in+satellite+pipe+at+night.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5248863368158888210" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjH2l5tGavYR5PEdQVJKkAfKKaJvH6pxad_qjhS_vC3WUrJuI91YVz-6oBnEhkLbbuhQw7oLM6zBDXz7848TZlFi_yeB4jbJOv6EG4B1kKQRQtS-xs6nAA7tqmc1BPXL9AdbMvymmVDOYav/s400/Letseng+drilling+in+satellite+pipe+at+night.JPG" style="cursor: pointer; width: 502px; height: 333px;" /></a><br />Above: drilling at night at the Letšeng' mine<br /><br />Historically 81% of Letšeng's revenue is from large diamonds (+10.8 ct) and 90% of the diamonds recovered are gem quality with a significant proportion graded as D colour.<br /><br />Some of the world's largest diamonds have been produced at Letšeng.

The company is renowned for its tradition and excellence in manufacturing and supplying crystals and crystal-ware, especially for the jewelry and fashion industry as well as decorative homeware. In the fashion world, Swarovski crystals have recently been a hot and immensely sought-after accessory and component of haute couture. The name Swarovski can thus be found on many a fashion item or piece of jewelry created by famous fashion designers – among those are Coco Chanel, Elsa Schiaparelli, Dior, Dolce & Gabbana, Valentino and Roberto Cavalli.<br /><br />As a company, Swarovski comprises two major divisions:<br />The first, dating back to Swarovski’s origins in 1895, producing precision-cut crystal components, the crystal elements, catering to a wide range of design-driven industries in the fashion, lighting and interior business, the second, established in the mid 1970’s, using these same elements to create finished crystal products -jewelry, fashion accessories, and home décor objects- which are sold through the worldwide network of more than 1150 Swarovski stores.<br /><br />Hooking up with Fashion Rocks and opening an Atelier further upped the hip factor of Swarovski. <a href="http://www.swarovskisparkles.com/fashionrocks/naomicampbell2007/n-259.html">Check out<br />the Fashion Rocks 2007 Video here.</a><br /><br />See the latest fashion applications, tv and movie collaborations and more at <a href="http://www.swarovskisparkles.com/">Swarovski Sparkles</a> and you can check out the company and their products <a href="http://www.swarovski.com/">here.</a><br /><br />Also, Swarovski created indoor lighting and home elements. Didn't know that? <a href="http://business.swarovski.com/">See them here.</a><br /><br />They have even introduced ATELIER SWAROVSKI, an exclusive collection of accessories created in collaboration with cutting-edge fashion designers to bring their creative visions to life.
