Associated Press (AP) -- Largest Uncut Diamond

(Kuala Lumpur)
Lazare Diamonds yesterday unveiled "giant Sefadu," believed to be the world's largest uncut diamond.

The rock, 620 carats, seven centimeters long, was found in 1970 at Sefadu in Sierra Leone, West Africa.

In a related story, Ashton Mining of Canada today unveiled the "Giant Snafu" when its eagerly awaited K91 results failed to materialize as promised.

The company attributed the delay to a whole bunch of things that are impossible to confirm.

"Listen, if you can't stand the wait, sell your stock, mate!" Ashton's vice president of exploration explained.

Result are now expected sometime next week.
