Kao Mine Goods on Display at Rough Diamond Week

Viewing will take place during the International Rough Diamond Week at the Israel Diamond Exchange from March 9 to 13.

Fusion/Hennig Tenders will display rough goods from the Kao mine in Lesotho for tender in Israel.

"We're pleased that the Kao mine of Lesotho, one of our premier productions, has agreed to send goods for viewing and tender in Ramat Gan, during the upcoming Rough Diamond Week at the IDE,” said Fusion Alternatives' CEO, Adam Shulman.

“This is a full RoM, of all the sizes and qualities, which will make them attractive to all level of buyers, dealers and manufacturers." At the conclusion of the Ramat Gan viewing, the Kao goods will be taken for viewing to Antwerp until March 20.

"We are delighted with this addition to the rough diamond tenders," IDE Deputy President Arnon Juwal, who heads the IRDW organizing committee, said. "Fusion / Hennig Tenders has done a marvelous job in securing the Kao rough for viewing and tender in Israel. The Kao production will add to the wide range of rough goods that will be tendered here during the Rough Diamond Week."

IDE President Shmuel Schnitzer said he expects other rough diamond agencies, brokers and traders to follow suit and bring more rough for tender and sale in Israel. "We will continue to increase our efforts to raise Israel's banner as an international rough diamond trading center. We invite other rough producers to come and visit us during the International Rough Diamond Week in March, to see our centre for themselves and witness our efforts."
