Reena Ahluwalia holds the Type II A, D-color, 910-carat ‘The Lesotho Legend’, the fifth-largest gem diamond in history. In 2018, the diamond was sold for $40 million. The diamond is from the Letseng mine in Lesotho, a country encircled by South Africa. According to Gem Diamonds, it was the largest diamond to have been recovered from the mine (untill 2018).

@RadishRose did they say if that was one of those blood diamonds?

I didn't reseach it, so I don't know. Sorry. I never heard of blood diamond.

They're also called conflict diamonds.
(especially in Africa) an uncut diamond mined in an area of armed conflict and traded illicitly to finance the fighting.

Thanks anyway.
