Professor Richard Conroy, Chairman of Karelian Diamonds, also made the 
following statement at the AGM: 
 
"The Company has built upon last year's discoveries making further excellent 
progress. We have worked hard on identifying the source of the green diamond 
that was found by us and there has been continued work at Riihivaara where we 
identified a new Kimberlite body. 
 
"Very importantly we are accelerating work towards possible mine development at 
the Lahtojoki diamond deposit following the positive Preliminary Economic 
Assessment and the excellent assay results from the large Eastern lobe of the 
site.  As a result of which adjacent exploration acreage has been acquired. 
 
"We are making solid progress towards our objective of bringing in the first 
diamond mine in Europe outside Russia."
