Sustainability Reporting

Lucara Diamond Corp.’s (Lucara) 100 percent owned Karowe diamond mine, located in Botswana, has been in production since 2012. It is one of the world’s foremost producers of large, high quality, Type IIA diamonds in excess of 10.8 carats, including the historic 1,758 carat Sewelô, the 1,109 carat Lesedi La Rona and the 813 carat Constellation which sold for a record US$63.1 million. 

Since 2012, Lucara’s first year of operation, Prizma has been engaged to assist the company with its sustainability reporting. Prizma’s tasks have included benchmarking, assisting with materiality assessments, site-based data collection and interviews, production of content and graphic design, integrating UN SDGs, and improving ESG scores.
