DiamondCorp shares fell 2.5% despite the company saying diamond recoveries were better than expected and costs were well within budget at its Lace mine in South Africa. The firm said it had recovered 7.33 carats per hundred tonnes, 47% above budget, including an 8.3 carat good quality white gem diamond. The company is undertaking a tailing operation, sifting through minerals already mined to find leftover diamonds.
