    Armenian cut diamond output plummets 22% in 2006



    Armenia reduced cut diamond production 22% in 2006 to 88.048 billion
    dram ($240.5 million), an Armenian Trade and Economic Development
    Ministry official said.

    Cut diamond sales fell 20% to 88.993 billion dram ($243 million),
    with exports falling 20.6% to 87.077 billion dram ($237.8 million).

    A drop in world prices for cut and polished diamonds combined with a
    weaker dollar in Armenia were behind the drop in output and sales,
    the ministry said.
