The Company has a well-established operational and production history in South Africa, and extensive experience supplying rough diamonds to the world market.

About Krone-Endora at Venetia Project:
On February 28, 2011, Diamcor successfully completed the acquisition of the Krone-Endora at Venetia Project (the "Project") from De Beers. The Project consists of the prospecting rights over the farms Krone 104 and Endora 66, which represent a combined surface area of approximately 5,888 hectares directly adjacent to De Beers' flagship Venetia Diamond Mine in South Africa. De Beers previously completed various exploration efforts on initial areas of interest comprised of approximately 310 hectares, a summary of which has been reported in an initial Independent NI 43-101 Technical Report filed by the Company on July 30, 2009. The deposits which occur on the properties of Krone and Endora are proposed to be the result of the combined shift and erosion of an estimated 1,000m (1 km) of material from the higher grounds of the adjacent Venetia kimberlite areas to the lower surrounding areas including those of Krone and Endora. Since acquiring the Project the Company has completed the drilling of an additional 469 targets, and is targeting a move to large scale bulk sampling and the initial recoveries of rough diamonds from the Project prior to the end of 2011. Site preparations and the delivery of production related equipment to support this planned move are underway. The deposits on Krone-Endora occur in two layers with an average total depth of only +/-15.0 metres from surface to bedrock, allowing for a very low-cost mining operation to be employed, and the potential for near-term diamond production from a known high-quality source. Krone-Endora also benefits from the significant development of infrastructure and services already in place due to its location directly adjacent to DeBeers Venetia Mine.
Strategic Tiffany & Co. Alliance:
As announced on March 29, 2011, the Company has established a long-term strategic alliance with world famous New York based Tiffany & Co. to purchase up to 100% of the future production of rough diamonds from the Krone-Endora at Venetia Project at then current market prices. To expedite the production and supply of rough diamonds from Krone-Endora at Venetia, Tiffany & Co. also provided the Company with additional financing for the Project. Tiffany & Co. is a publically traded company which is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol TIF. Originally founded in 1837, the Tiffany's name is now globally recognised as one of the premier luxury jewellery and specialty retailers in the world. Through Tiffany & Co. and various other subsidiaries, the company is engaged in product design, manufacturing, and retailing activities on a global basis. As of January 31, 2011 Tiffany & Co. operates 233 retail stores and boutiques in the Americas, Japan, Asia-Pacific, and Europe and engages in direct selling through internet, catalog and business gift operations.
