About Namakwa:

Namakwa Diamonds is the only quoted vertically integrated diamond mining company. Its strategy of backward integration from its 30 years of beneficiation experience into mining has created a unique public investment proposition. Namakwa Diamonds has a diversified portfolio of diamond projects, which includes five distinct diamond resource target areas. These are located in four African countries, namely; South Africa, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Namibia and Angola. Namakwa's projects are located within historically prospective geological environments. Alluvial diamond deposits constitute the primary focus of the company, whilst kimberlite opportunities will be considered if they represent an advanced stage of development, consistent with Namakwa's philosophy of a short resource delivery time as provided by its alluvial diamond mines.
