If the CHINESE are buying ....., page-11

I can't wait for the total inventory for our first auction - it HAS to be around 400,000 cts - five weeks additional production from the 12/09 boomer announcement would surely provide another 123,000 cts, unless we suddenly went from 100,000 in a week back to 30k in a month. It must be a pretty damn impressive number for MUS to be holding the lower quality stuff back for the second auction. That shows real confidence, although, I would have thought that every carat mined would have gone up for sale, as that lower quality stone will still fetch a dollar, and we have a busy year ahead in 2018. Anyhow, yes, the Chinese, they love their top end jewellery no doubt about it. It's usually diamonds for the ladies though. Big ones.
