Gem Found In South Africa Weighing


101 Cnrats.
New York. July 22.-Maiden Lane
heard yesterday from johannesburg,
South Africa. of the finding Of pure
white flawless diamond at the Premier
mine. said to weigh 1871 caratss. 1t is
said to be two inches long and three
fourths of an inch thick, taperng fzom
one and quarter. to three-fourths Of
an inch. 1t is estimated to be worth
S150.000 uncut.
A Maiden Lane lapidary said that,
judging from the description, the larg-
est diamond which could be cut from
it would be pear-shaped but that 1t
might be more profitable to cut 1t into
small gems. When cut, he thought 1T
would be worth 100000.
The Premier mine became famous in
January. 1905. when the Cullinan dia-
mond was discovered. This gem. the
largest ever found, weighed s.os2
carats. 1t Mas cut. into smaller stones
and presented to- King Edward VII.
by the Transvaal government. The
latest large diamond to be taken from
the Premier mine will probably also
rank among the worlds famous gems.
