Diamond mining has remained a cornerstone of Namibia's economy since the initial discovery of gem-quality diamonds near Kolmanskop in 1908. For decades, Namibia has consistently ranked among the top ten diamond-producing nations globally, maintaining the highest value per carat by a significant margin.
