Australian miner Lucapa Diamond Co. announced it had unearthed a 170-carat pink diamond, believed to be the largest recovered in centuries.

 Called the "Lulo Rose," the 170-carat pink Type IIa diamond was discovered at the Lulo mine in Angola's diamond-rich northeast and is the largest found in three hundred years. 

Not since the Pink Panther, that is.

For those wondering how much Lulo Rose could fetch. In 2017, a 59.6-carat pink diamond, dubbed "Pink Star," was sold for $71.2 million in Hong Kong.
