What matters in the world today is a world record breaking diamond sale in Great Britain. The article on Yahoo! news, talks about a 507-carrot rough (un-cut) diamond that sold for $35.5 million. The Cullinan Heritage is in the top 20 largest, pure, un-cut diamonds in the world. Experts estimated the value at $25 million and are very excited that it sold for more. The purchase was made by Chow Tai Fook Jewelry Co. in Honk Kong. The Cullinan mine, where this diamond originated, has been the source of many large diamonds, including the world's largest rough diamond, the Cullinan, at 3,106 carats. That gem was cut into the Star of Africa stones that are now set in Britain's Crown Jewels. This matters to the world because diamonds are one of Africa's largest resources, and if companies like Cullinan were to give back to the community, then lives of African natives might improve. Life in Africa is so low compared to America. People die every minute of Aids, or malaria, or starvation. The diamond business currently only brings more violence to the continent, and if company’s like Cullinan could help, it would make another part of the world a better place.
