The company’s experienced team has a successful track record of discovery.\n\n \n\nThis is the team that helped discover the Karowe mine in Orapa, Botswana, which produces extremely high value stones. The company is also exploring in South Africa and Zimbabwe.\n\nThe Botswana Diamonds team has been heavily involved in diamond exploration since the 1980’s. The previous diamond company, African Diamonds, developed deposits in Botswana, Sierra Leone and Guinea.\n\n![](https://www.share-talk.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/map-of-africa-coloured-marked-up-with-sa-263x300.jpg)\n\nIt was very successful in finding a kimberlite mine in Botswana, one of only 20 hard-rock diamond mines found outside of Russia.\n\nThis was a successful partnership with De Beers and later Lucara, part of the Lundin Group. Overall the team has accumulated experience of nearly 200 man-years in exploration, development, mining and marketing diamonds. The team is now using these accumulated skills in Botswana Diamonds (BOD), listed on AIM and the Botswana Stock Exchange.\n\n "}
