The biggest uncut diamond on earth—and the second largest diamond ever found—is going up for auction in London Wednesday where it’s expected to sell for at least $70 million. The diamond, named Lesedi La Rona, meaning “Our Light” in the Tswana language of Botswana where it was found, is about the size of a tennis ball, too big to fit into traditional diamond scanners.
