Financing And Operational Update

DiamondCorp, the Southern African diamond mining, development and exploration company,
announces that, further to the Company's announcement of 20 October 2016, the second
tranche of the financing facility from Rasmala plc (the "Facility"), in the gross amount of
£300,000, is in the process of being drawn down by the Company.

Lace mine production continues in line with expectations, with the balance of the 5,000 carats
of the Company’s diamond inventory, against which the Facility is collateralised, expected to
be processed by the end of the day shift today.

Production in the current month is on schedule to exceed 15,000 tonnes and the grade for the
month of November to date is 29 carats per hundred tonnes.
