"THE world's biggest diamond has been found in a mine in South Africa's North-West province, local radio reported.

The stone was twice the weight of the previous record-holder, the Cullinan Diamond, which weighed about 3106 carats when found in Gauteng province in January 1905, SAfm public radio said.

The Cullinan was cut into several smaller stones, which now adorn the British crown jewels.

The stone found on Monday was to be taken to Johannesburg under tight security, according to SAfm.

No further details were immediately available."
