Hi whiskeyjack,

I checked the June 22 and July 13 releases. I stand corrected. When I use these numbers, the percentage weight of stones about 10 carats in size increases marginally from 4% to 4.4% of total carat weight recovered. The total carat weight prediction for a 5000 tonne bulk drops to 5700 carats and the number of 10 carat stones predicted to be recovered changes from 24 to 25. Thanks again and by the way, the estimates are not large, they are reasonable.

regards,
teevee

Hi whiskeyjack,
I checked the June 22 and July 13 news releases. I stand corrected. The changes have the following effect: From a bulk sample of 5000 tonnes, the predicted number of carats recovered changes from 6000 to 5700 carats. The percentage of total carat weight for diamonds in the 10 carat size range changes marginally from 4% to 4.4%. The number of 10 carat stones predicted to be recovered changes from 24 to 25. Thanks again and by the way, the estimates are not large, they are reasonable.
