De Beers Group, in partnership with Angola’s national diamond company Endiama, has reported the discovery of a new kimberlite field in Angola—the company’s first such find in over 30 years.The breakthrough occurred in July 2025, when the joint venture intersected kimberlite in its very first drill hole, targeting a cluster of high-priority sites identified through airborne surveys earlier in March 2025.

In the months ahead, De Beers and Endiama will carry out additional drilling, ground geophysical studies, and laboratory testing to confirm the nature of the kimberlite and evaluate its diamond-bearing potential.The find marks a significant milestone in the partnership between De Beers and Angola. It comes on the back of two Mineral Investment Contracts signed in April 2022 and a Memorandum of Understanding agreed at the 2024 Mining Indaba. These agreements have laid the foundation for a long-term collaboration focused on responsibly developing Angola’s diamond resources.

Al Cook, CEO of De Beers Group, said: “Angola is, in our view, one of the best places on the planet to look for diamonds, and this discovery reinforces our confidence. It is a powerful reminder of what can be achieved through partnership, and I commend President Lourenco and his government for all the work they have done to enhance transparency, adopt international best practices, and create a business friendly environment, all of which has enabled us to return to Angola and seek new sources of supply. We are excited about the role De Beers can play in helping the country deliver on its huge potential, both below and above the ground.”
