In unrelated news:

"South Africa consistently ranks 6th in the world for total carats extracted from the ground.

South Africa's $124/carat comfortably beats out major volume leaders like Russia ($89/carat), Canada ($80/carat), and the DR Congo ($45/carat).The "Mega-Gem" Phenomenon: South Africa might not have the highest average per-carat value across its entire inventory, but it historically dominates the world in producing individual, record-breaking ultra-gems (like the 3,106-carat Cullinan Diamond) and highly lucrative Fancy Vivid colored diamonds."
