Antwerp, Monday, December 3th. Only a few months after the official launch of the Antwerp Diamond Tender Facility, First Element (Pty) Ltd organized the first tender in this brand new ‘triple A’ facility. The tender offered rough diamonds, retrieved from the Liqhobong Mine in Lesotho.
Johan Erikson, CEO of First Element, was very pleased with the results: “We had 82 viewings which is a success. We found the offices to be convenient and functional and we received positive comments from our customers. Furthermore, we believe that AWDC and the Diamantkring will be commended and remembered for the bold move in bringing more diamonds to Antwerp. The facility, by being totally independent, adds tremendous value and credibility to the diamonds being offered for sale. We are looking forward to a long and mutually beneficial relationship.”
The next Tender will be held in February next year.
