Fort à la Corne Diamond Project

Other De Beers Canada operations that are expected to go online in the future are the Fort à la Corne Diamond Project (FALC), 50km north-east of Prince Albert, Saskatchewan. The Fort à la Corne field comprises the largest diamondiferous kimberlite clusters in the world, with over 71 diamondiferous kimberlite pipes. The field is expected to produce an average of 7 to 16 carats per hundred tonnes of extracted ore.
