Скачать или смотреть Childhood friends find '$55,000 diamond' in Madhya Pradesh | BBC News India

On a recent winter morning in Panna, a diamond mining region in Madhya Pradesh, two childhood friends made a discovery that they think could change their lives forever.

Satish Khatik and Sajid Mohammed stumbled upon a large, glistening rock on a plot of land they had leased just weeks earlier.

When they took the stone to the city’s official diamond evaluator, they learnt they had found a 15.34-carat gem-quality diamond - one of the finest varieties of natural diamonds that exist.

Mr Khatik and Mr Mohammed say they are over the moon. “We can now get our sisters married,” they said.

The government holds quarterly auctions, drawing buyers from across India and abroad to bid for the diamonds.
