Diamonds in the news: Largest diamond auctioned in Australia sold for large price.
Excerpt:
A 9.79-carat diamond, the largest diamond ever auctioned in Australia, was sold for 97,000 dollars (about 70,000 US dollars) Sunday.
The diamond, which was assessed as VVS, a measurement of clarity ranked just below flawless, finally went to an anonymous buyer after attracting fierce bidding in Perth, capital of the state of South Australia.
The round, brilliant cut solitaire diamond, which is of extremely high clarity, was flown into Western Australia on Friday under tight security, Australian Associated Press (AAP) reported.
