Sarin Equips Botswana Service Center

(IDEX Online News) – As Botswana is moving ahead with its plans to become a diamond hub, Sarin Technologies has shipped a Galaxy 1000 system for the scanning and mapping of internal inclusions in rough diamonds to Gaborone

Planed to service the rough diamond trade and diamond manufacturers in Botswana, Sarin opened the new Gaborone service centre to cater to a growing number of companies that are already buying and polishing in the African country.

In 2013, De Beers’ Diamond Trading Company (DTC) will move from London to Gaborone.

This is Sarin’s eighth service center, following those in India (Surat and Mumbai), Israel, Belgium, Russia, South Africa and Namibia.

Indochine Botswana (Pty.) Ltd, a local business venture that has been providing Sarin with professional pre- and post-sales services for nearly two years, is operating the new service centre.
