A clear bright yellow is worth about the same as a clear white stone. Inbetweens and unevens are worth less. Exotic colors (pink, red ,green) are rare and there is no set price. Usually they are subject to an auction process and fetch what the market will pay, which is often between plenty and wow.

Agreed, if only 1 carat per ten thousand were colored as in the Argyle....looks like they have about 50,000 carats they have not shown us yet....If the colored stones are much higher than the world average these alluvial claims could be phenomenal....CNB put out 140.00 per carat... well ...take that times 10 to 1000 depending on the colors....They need to tell us what percentage of the stones recovered are colored and give us an idea of the value....Since the red is nearing a million dollars per carat!!(BTW I cant find that article will you please post the link)....If the colored stones are prolific that 140.00 could go up by 1000%...I guess we just have to wait and see....I may call Monday and ask these questions...DD
