		+	TIMES NEWS NETWORK
		+
		+	Bhopal:
		+
		+	A labourer turned millionaire almost overnight in Panna on Friday after he unearthed a gem-quality diamond just two days after taking lease of a shallow mine.
		+
		+	Officials have valued the sparkler at Rs 10 lakh. Vasant Singh will get the money after the diamond is auctioned next month. Last year, a daily wager had found a diamond worth Rs 1.5 crore after leasing an 8m x 8m patch.
		+
		+	A resident of Shahnagar in Panna district, Singh works as a labourer and was allocated a 6m x 4m patta in Krishnakalyanpur region on September 25 for a fee of Rs 200. It gave him mining permit for three months, but Singh struck big on the second day of the dig.
		+
		+	As he was washing the pebbles quarried from his patta, he found something was sparkling. Clutching the stone in his hand, he ran to his house and showed it first to his family and then to Panna diamond officer S N Pandey. It turned out to be a 4.33 carat gem quality stone. “He has submitted the diamond in our office. We will include it in the auction of diamonds in the coming days and Vasant will get the proceeds,” Pandey told TOI. “He will be paid the value of the diamond minus11.5% government royalty and about 2% other taxes,” Pandey added.

		+	The shallow diamond mines of Panna are located about 40km from the diamond mines operated by the National Mineral Development Corporation(NMDC) .

 The diamond hunt in these parts of Kurnool district has gained so much in popularity that migrants from not just across the state but also from several neighbouring states of Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Telangana and Maharashtra visit the riverside areas in search of diamonds.
 The areas where the diamonds are found are in and around Sarvanarasimha Swamy temple in Sirivella mandal headquarters where it is widely believed that Sri Krishnadevaraya of the Vijayanagara empire and his minister Timmarasu hid treasures under the ground.
