Abstract
- The Gahcho Kué diamond mine, owned by De Beers and Mountain Province Diamonds Inc., began production in 2017 and is the newest of three operating diamond mines in the Northwest Territories. The technology, which Dipple says is being used at mine sites around the world, could have the potential to make Gahcho Kué the world's first carbon neutral mine, or better, but that will take years. An aerial view of part of the Gahcho Kué diamond mine (opposite) where the University of British Columbia is working with miners on an innovative carbon capturing project (above).
