Aber
Aber's principal asset is its 40% interest in the Diavik Diamonds Project, located in Canada's Northwest Territories. Diavik is Canada's second diamond mine, and began producing diamonds in November 2002. Aber received its first share of Diavik diamonds in January 2003 and made its first sale in March. Construction of the project has taken three years and cost Cdn$1.3billion. At full production Diavik will produce between 6-8 million carats per year, or approximately 5% of the world's diamond supply. Aber is a single asset company with no peer. We do not operate the Diavik Project. We are not an international, diversified mining company and we are not a small-cap exploration company. We are a company solely focused on the marketing of diamonds. Aber's market capitalization is, by a large margin, the largest in the world for a diamond-focused, public company.

Conroy Diamonds and Gold
Conroy Diamonds and Gold P.l.c. was incorporated in April 1995 with the objective of building a significant mining and exploration business, employing the experience and successful track record of its senior management in the field of natural resources which includes the discovery of the Galmoy Ore deposits which are now in production as a major zinc mine. The current focus of the Company’s activities is on a major geological structure in Ireland known as the Longford-Down Massif. The Company has acquired prospecting licenses over an area of approximately 1,300km. On one small portion of this license area in County Monaghan, the Company has intersected high grades and mineable widths of gold mineralisation in the Tullybuck/Lisglassan deposit which, the Directors believe, has the potential to become the first major gold mine in Britain or Ireland in recent times.
