Largest pink diamond in 300 years discovered in Angola, company says

The Associated PressThis photo supplied by Lucapa Diamond Company on Wednesday shows the 170 carat pink diamond, right, recovered from Lulo, Angola.Named the "Lulo Rose," the diamond was found at the Lulo alluvial diamond mine, the mine's owner, the Lucapa Diamond Company, announced Wednesday on its website.

The pink gemstone is expected to fetch a high value when auctioned, but Wetherall said he doesn't know what kind of premium will be paid because of its colour.Lulo is an alluvial mine which means the stones are recovered from a river bed. The Lucapa company is searching for underground deposits, known as kimberlite pipes, which would be the main source of the diamonds, said Wetherall, speaking from the company's headquarters in Australia.
