Harry Winston Diamond Corporation Reports Diavik Diamond Mine Third Quarter Production Update
 
TORONTO, Oct. 13, 2011 /CNW/ - Harry Winston Diamond Corporation (TSX:HW, NYSE:HWD) (the "Company") reports that in the third calendar quarter of 2011, Diavik produced 1.9 million carats from 0.6 million tonnes of ore processed. Ore processed in the quarter was 3% higher, and carats recovered were 8% higher, compared to the same period from 2010, due to an increase in the overall grade of the ore processed. For the nine months ending September 30, 2011, Diavik produced 5.1 million carats from 1.7 million tonnes of ore processed.
 
Diavik's full-year target production remains at 6.9 million carats. Production for the fourth calendar quarter is estimated to be 1.8 million carats with production from sub-level retreat mining of A-154 South ore contributing higher grade ore.
 
The Company held two partial rough diamond sales in its fiscal third quarter ending October 31.  As stated in an earlier press release, significant rough diamond sales will be deferred into the fourth quarter and possibly subsequent periods.
