KELOWNA,
BC, Canada -- June 4, 2019 -- InvestorsHub NewsWire -- Diamcor
Mining Inc. (TSX-V.DMI / OTCQB-DMIFF), (the "Company") is
pleased to announce it has delivered 2,545 carats of rough diamonds
from ongoing processing exercises at the Company's Krone-Endora at
Venetia Project (the "Project") to tender in the second month of
the Company's first fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2019. These
rough diamonds, when combined with the 3,714.97 carats delivered
and tendered earlier in the fiscal quarter, brings the total rough
diamonds delivered for tender thus far in the Company's first
fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2019, to 6,259.97 carats. Of the
foregoing 2,545 carats of rough diamonds delivered to tender,
1,648.78 carats were tendered and sold for total gross proceeds of
USD $236,599.43, resulting in an average price of USD $143.50 per
carat. The lower dollar per carat achieved, as compared to the
Company's average price per carat of $176.16 realized on all rough
diamonds tendered and sold to date, is in part attributable to the
goods being tendered in South Africa, coupled with a higher
percentage of smaller, lower quality rough diamonds offered. The
balance of 896.22 carats of rough diamonds delivered, along with
rough diamonds recovered after June 1, 2019, will be sold at a
planned third tender in Antwerp later this fiscal
quarter.

About
Krone-Endora at Venetia
In
February 2011, Diamcor acquired the Krone-Endora at Venetia Project
from De Beers Consolidated Mines Limited, consisting of the
prospecting rights over the farms Krone 104 and Endora 66, which
represent a combined surface area of approximately 5,888 hectares
directly adjacent to De Beers' flagship Venetia Diamond Mine in
South Africa. On September 11, 2014, the Company announced that the
South African Department of Mineral Resources had granted a Mining
Right for the Krone-Endora at Venetia Project encompassing 657.71
hectares of the Project's total area of 5,888 hectares. The Company
has also submitted an application for a mining right over the
remaining areas of the Project. The deposits which occur on the
properties of Krone and Endora have been identified as a
higher-grade "Alluvial" basal deposit which is covered by a
lower-grade upper "Eluvial" deposit. The deposits are proposed to
be the result of the direct-shift (in respect to the "Eluvial"
deposit) and erosion (in respect to the "Alluvial" deposit) of
material from the higher grounds of the adjacent Venetia Kimberlite
areas. The deposits on Krone-Endora occur in two layers with a
maximum total depth of approximately 15.0 metres from surface to
bedrock, allowing for a very low-cost mining operation to be
employed with the potential for near-term diamond production from a
known high-quality source. Krone- Endora also benefits from the
significant development of infrastructure and services already in
place due to its location directly adjacent to the Venetia
Mine.
