"The Center will need to establish two main goals: creating a workspace with the latest technology in polishing diamonds, as well as in creating a place where members of the public will be able to manufacture rough diamonds from the beginning to the end of the whole process of producing the diamonds," says the report.
It was also reported that, "The modern production center, covering an area of 400 square meters, will include lecture halls, a room with automatic polishing machines, a laser cutting room, an events hall, a conference room, a study room, and more."
