About Gem Diamonds:

Gem Diamonds is a leading global diamond producer with a focus on high value diamonds. Its production portfolio comprises kimberlite and lamproite mines in Lesotho and Australia, and a mine development project in Botswana. Both production mines are world-leaders in production of the highest quality, highest value gems: remarkable whites from the Letšeng mine in Lesotho; fancy yellow diamonds from Ellendale in Australia. This production positions the Company strongly in a segment of the market expected to generate attractive returns over the long term.

Gem Diamonds has a clear and consistent growth strategy based on the development of its existing assets and maximising its revenue from its rough diamonds by pursuing cutting and polishing initiatives further down the diamond pipeline. The strategy has been implemented with a view to maximizing the returns from the Company's existing assets based on the favourable supply demand dynamics which are forecast over the longer term.
