The total is 334.97 carats. Management is confident by implementing certain improvements as suggested regarding the installation of a scrubber at the feed side and a sortex at the final recovery, production can be increased to process 20,000 tons per month which could easily produce 1,000 carats per month. Management is also pleased to report that it has now also added two shifts of 8.5 hours each as they previously announced it had planned, which will increase production significantly. The company is also planning on prospecting and mining to build up a certain production level for the next 10 years. The company is also aggressively pursuing other acquisitions of producing diamond mines in South Africa to increase its portfolio of producing diamond mines. (c) Copyright 2001 Canjex Publishing Ltd.
