quality, Type IIA diamonds in excess of 10.8 carats, including the historic 1,758 carat Sewel么, the 1,109 carat Lesedi La Rona and the 813 carat Constellation which sold for a record US$63.1 million. Most recently, Lucara recovered an epic 2,492 carat diamond, one of the largest rough diamonds ever unearthed.</p><p>100% of the diamonds sold by Lucara Botswana, Lucara's indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary are natural, untreated, ethically-sourced diamonds originating from the Karowe Diamond Mine in the Boteti District in Botswana. Since commencing production, Lucara Botswana has sold 216 diamonds for more than $1 million each and over 11 single diamonds for more than $10 million each.</p><p>Since 2014, Lucara has paid out more than US$271 million in dividends, which well exceeds the total capital invested to build the mine. The Company has an experienced board and management team and operates transparently, in accordance with international best practices in the areas of sustainability, health, safety, environment, and community relations.</p><p>The Company is a member of the Lundin Group of Companies and is listed on the TSX, Nasdaq Stockholm and the Botswana Stock Exchange under the symbol
