At yesterday’s emporium, 695 of the 750 jade lots in Group C were sold to local and foreign traders through the open tender system. Merchants were permitted to inspect Group C jade lots numbered 3651 to 4400 and submit their proposed prices into the respective tender boxes. Officials reviewed these proposals yesterday evening, and the results will be announced on the morning of 25 November.

Yesterday evening, Union Minister for Natural Resources and Environmental Conservation and Chairman of the Central Committee of the Myanma Gems Emporium U Khin Maung Yi, inspected the tender-opening process and gave necessary instructions to officials.
