In Russia, work on cutting the largest diamond in the country’s history has been completed. The weight of the unique diamond of rare fancy color Vivid Yellow is more than 100 carats.

The diamond was named “The New Sun” – as a reflection of the history of the super-large diamond weighing more than 200 carats of a rich honey-gold color, which was mined by ALROSA at the Ebelyakh Arctic placer deposit, among the sands of an old river bed in Yakutia.
