Debswana Diamond Company

Debswana Diamond Company (Pty) Ltd is a unique partnership between the Government of the Republic of Botswana and De Beers Group of Companies. The company was incorporated on 23rd June, 1969 under the original name of De Beers Botswana Mining Company (Proprietary) Limited. Debswana is the largest private sector employer in Botswana, with over 5,000 employees. These are mainly found on mining sites, along with just over 5000 fixed-term contractors and a small staff compliment at the Debswana Corporate Centre in Gaborone, Botswana’s capital. These four mines have contributed significantly to the economic growth of Botswana, as well as producing revenues responsible for lifting the country from one of Africa’s least developed to an international development success story. Botswana is now a middle-income country independent in means as well as name. Diamond mining operations are located at Orapa, Letlhakane, Damtshaa (OLDM) and Jwaneng.
