Rio Tinto Unveils Rare 158ct Yellow Diamond from Diavik Mine in Canada
One of the largest gem-quality yellow diamonds ever discovered in Canada, the 158.20-carat gem is a remarkable find as Diavik Mine nears closure.
Rio Tinto has uncovered a rare and exceptional 158.20-carat yellow diamond at its Diavik Mine in Canada, marking one of the largest gem-quality yellow diamonds ever found in the country. This stunning discovery is also among only five yellow diamonds weighing over 100 carats to be unearthed by the company at Diavik throughout its 22-year history. Notably, Diavik is primarily known for producing white diamonds, with less than 1% of its output being yellow stones.
The Diavik Mine, which is set to close next year, is also responsible for several significant yellow diamond finds, including Canada’s largest yellow diamond, a 552.74-carat gem discovered in 2018, and the 187.7-carat Diavik Foxfire found in 2015.
With the closure of the Argyle mine in Australia in 2020, Diavik is now Rio Tinto’s sole diamond asset. Patrick Coppens, General Manager of Sales and Marketing for Rio Tinto’s diamond business, expressed excitement over the unique beauty and purity of the Diavik diamonds, eagerly anticipating the future of this extraordinary find.

Tiffany & Co. Makes a Landmark Statement in Bangkok with First-Ever Thailand Building Wrap
The 1,598-sq.-Metre Installation Transforms Exchange Tower in Asok into a Giant Showcase for the Iconic Tiffany HardWear Collection
Tiffany & Co. has made a striking statement in Thailand with the launch of its first-ever building wrap in the country, transforming the façade of Exchange Tower in Bangkok’s Asok district into a dramatic visual tribute to its iconic HardWear collection. The installation spans more than 1,598 square metres, turning one of the city’s prominent landmarks into a large-scale expression of the jewellery house’s design identity.
At the centre of the installation is the Tiffany HardWear Graduated Link Necklace in 18K Yellow Gold with Pavé Diamonds. The statement piece features the collection’s signature graduated links, crafted in 18K yellow gold and set with round brilliant-cut diamonds in a refined honeycomb setting designed to maximise light and brilliance.
The HardWear collection draws inspiration from a 1962 bracelet design discovered in Tiffany’s archives. The collection translates that archival influence into a contemporary design language associated with strength, resilience, boldness and empowerment, while retaining the House’s distinctive craftsmanship and heritage.
By presenting the necklace on an architectural scale, Tiffany & Co. has taken the idea of jewellery beyond the traditional boutique environment and into Bangkok’s urban landscape. The combination of gold, diamonds, scale and architectural visibility creates an immersive brand statement designed to capture attention across the busy Asok commercial district.
The landmark activation marks an important moment for Tiffany & Co. in the Thai market, demonstrating how the Maison is using large-scale creative experiences to bring its jewellery icons and heritage closer to a wider audience. The installation also reinforces HardWear as one of Tiffany’s contemporary design signatures, connecting archival heritage with modern luxury and visual storytelling.
