A £12,000 DIAMOND which dropped 100,000ft from space after being launched from a Derbyshire field almost a fortnight ago has still not been found.
The cushion-cut gem is understood to have been attached to a helium balloon earlier this month and launched into space from a field in the county.
It is part of a PR stunt, called #Diamondsinthesky, by London jeweller 77 Diamonds. The diamond is thought to have landed somewhere in a small village in Lincolnshire but it has not yet been found.
It was fitted with a GPS tracker, showing it reached 100,000ft before plummeting back to earth and landing somewhere in a five-mile radius of the village of Lea.
It is not known from where in Derbyshire the diamond was sent into space.
The firm has already said the finder of the diamond will get to keep it.
