No, it's in HBP, "Horcruxes" chapter. I don't have this book at the moment, so I can't give you the quote or the page until tomorrow, but basically DD says there that Lucius didn't know the diary was a Horcrux, otherwise he would have been more careful with it. According to DD, Lucius only knew that the diary would open the Chamber and let the monster out. DD also says that LV's anger, when he found out about the diary's destruction, was "terrible to behold" (or something of the sort :-)).
