It's the diamond industry's frozen frontier: Canada's North. Our cameras will visit Ekati, Canada's first diamond mine-the biggest thing ever built north of the Canadian tree line.

And this northern community stands to join Antwerp and Tel Aviv as one of the world's leading diamond-cutting centres.
