FYI: De Beers, the diamond producer that’s made secrecy a cornerstone of its business for more than 120 years, is pulling back the curtain to help bring more luster to its owner Anglo American Plc. (AAL)
Anglo, a London-based miner of copper, coal and iron ore, hosted a 90-minute presentation for investors and analysts yesterday that revealed information De Beers has never made public before: where its best diamonds come from and how much they fetch per carat, for example. (Stock price: AAL (LON) 1,322.90 GBX +6.40 (+0.49%)
