Zimbabwe warned over conflict diamonds

Last week, Mr Zwizwai was publicly criticised by his party after he dismissed reports that victims of the massive army clampdown on the illegal miners were buried in mass graves.

It is estimated that if properly mined diamonds can rake in US$200 million for Zimbabwe's cash strapped government.

But if the government fails to meet the KP teams recommendations, the country's diamonds might be blacklisted and this would affect their value on the world market.
