Company Statement

Mantle Diamonds Limited is a diamond exploration company with projects at varying levels of development in Australia, Canada, Finland, Liberia and Mali. Established by Lester Kemp and Rupert Baring in September 2005, the company is registered in the UK and is currently held by a variety of institutions and private investors.

Mantle's primary focus is on kimberlite exploration and development. Mantle's portfolio of assets is geographically diversified with the deliberate intention of reducing both country/political and geological risk.

Mantle's aim is to acquire interests in advanced stage diamond projects so as to minimise exploration risk and accelerate timing to production.
