Your problem is that you were saying that 19% of the ORE was -1.25mm, when it was 19% of the DIAMONDS that were -1.25mm. 

You are doing apples v. oranges. Assume that all of the ore was as big as oranges (perhaps it was,) your 19% of fine diamonds is irrelevant to the ore tonnage.

If you apply your 19% to the diamonds produced, 693,700 carats, as I did, you will be OK.
