DiamondCorp Botswana unearths encouraging results

DiamondCorp this week revealed that the J-05 kimberlite in Botswana shows similar characteristics to the diamond bearing volcanic rock at the nearby Jwaneng mine.

The discovery comes after the company sank five boreholes into the target area that intersected what the company termed "coherent kimberlite" at vertical depths of up to 218 metres.

Samples are now being shipped to Canada for analysis, while drilling will continue on J-05 to confirm the size of the DiamondCorp kimberlite.
