Where Diamonds are Mined

Where Diamonds are Mined

Argye mine located in the Kimberley region
in the far north east of Western Australia.
Owned by Rio Tinto, this mine is the world’s
largest single producer of volume of
diamonds.  However, due to low proportion
of gem quality diamonds it is not the value
leader.  It does produce 90-95% of the
world’s supply of pink diamonds.  

Diavik is also owned by Rio Tinto,
