Strong Revenues from Baoulé Diamond Auction

Stellar Diamonds plc, the London listed (AIM:STEL) diamond development company focused on West Africa, announces sales of US$505,000 from the auction of diamonds from its 75% owned, Baoulé kimberlite pipe in Guinea. This brings sales to date for 2015 to over US$922,000, of which US$700,644 are derived from the trial mine evaluation of Baoulé.

Highlights from Baoulé sales:

· Latest diamond auction realises US$505,000 before costs
· 6 lots totalling 48.12cts of +5ct stones sold for US$3,510.17 per carat ($168,909.23)
· Revenue to date of US$700,644 from 5,173 carats at an average of US$135 per carat
· Latest run of mine parcel of 2,822 carats realised an average price of US$156 per carat
· Trial mine evaluation continuing with the objective to yield 15,000 carats for sale and valuation

Stellar Diamonds Chief Executive Karl Smithson commented:

“We are delighted with the results from the latest diamond sale from Baoulé via the online auction eDiamond platform. The presence of larger, high value stones and the stability in the rough diamond market has resulted in an average price of US$156 per carat for the latest Baoulé “run of mine” parcel. Stellar’s total revenue from diamond sales in 2015 currently stands at US$922,000, of which US$700,000 is derived from Baoulé. Trial mining is on-going and further diamond sales are targeted for the coming year.”
