Anglo American plc announces the value of rough diamond sales (Global Sightholder Sales and Auctions) for De Beers’ sixth sales cycle of 2023, amounting to US$410 million.

The provisional rough diamond sales figure quoted for Cycle 6 represents the expected sales value for the period 10 and 25 July and remains subject to adjustment based on final completed sales.

Al Cook, CEO of De Beers, said: “In line with seasonal trends, rough diamond sales continued at a lower level during the sixth sales cycle of the year. Participants in the diamond industry’s midstream sector continue to take a cautious approach to purchases in light of ongoing macroeconomic challenges.”
