Diavik Diamonds

Rio Tinto diamonds with a story. The Mine of Origin programme has been created by Rio Tinto to guarantee the origin of their diamonds and the quality of the mine that produced them.

The Diavik diamond mine was formed billions of years ago under Lac de Gras in the Northwest Territories of Canada. An extreme mining feat by Rio Tinto saw innovative engineering allow the recovery of what are known as some of the world's most beautiful diamonds.
