Lucapa Diamond Co. Ltd. said Sept. 26 that it has recovered an exceptional 172.67-carat diamond at its 40%-owned Lulo project in Angola.

The D-color, Type IIa diamond was the fifth over-100-carat diamond found at Lulo this year, following the discovery last week of a 104-carat diamond.

Endiama EP holds a 32% stake in Lulo, while Rosas & Petalas SA holds the remaining 28%.
