ORAPA: The country’s premier mining company Debswana, in partnership with Botswana Post launched 16 ‘Diamond for Botswana’ heritage stamps on Friday, an event that coincided with Debswana’s 54th anniversary.

Debswana wholly sponsored the stamps project and the launch at a combined value of P950,000.

The stamps were launched by Vice President Slumber Tsogwane as part of celebrating Botswana’s heritage and development journey, which has for years been anchored on diamonds. The stamps will be showcased to Batswana and around the world for the next five years, thus giving great exposure, not only to the Debswana brand but most importantly to the country. This is according to Debswana managing director, Andrew Motsomi, who was among the key speakers at the launch.
