PRICE INCREASES FOR DIAMONDS

Company Diamond Trading, marketing arm of De Beers, said that the price will be differentiated depending on the quality of diamonds. The company De Beers, 45% Anglo-American, has increased the price of diamonds by 14% last year and 3% this year, as strong demand for both traditional and emerging markets is outstripping supply.
