Confluence,
Here is some data from 1993 for type II or group II kimberlite dykes(J.J. Gurney et al, Kimberlite dyke mining in south Africa):
1. Bellsbank and Bobbejaan dykes at a 1993 average value of $250.00 per carat.
2. Ardo mine-no numbers given but reported as "not quite as good as at Bellsbank and Bobbejaan"
3. Star dykes reported at a 1993 range of $200-$250 per carat

Changes in diamond prices over the last 6 years would put those numbers where WSP's are now, and also for the same source type: group II kimberlite(comparing apples to apples, so to speak).

regards,
teevee
