Ekati Diamond Mine, situated northeast of Yellowknife in the remote wilderness of Canada’s Northwest Territories, is renowned for producing premium gem-quality diamonds and holds the distinction of Canada’s first underground and surface diamond mining operation. This iconic mine has now entered a new era under the ownership of Burgundy Diamond Mines, an Australian-based company, which acquired Ekati Diamond Mine from Arctic Canadian Diamond Company for a valued sum of $150 million US. This acquisition heralds fresh opportunities for growth and development.

The Ekati Diamond Mine operates on a fly-in, fly-out basis due to its challenging location. This means that employees typically commute to the mine site by aircraft for their work rotations, given the lack of road access to the region.

Working conditions at Ekati can be incredibly harsh, primarily due to the extreme weather conditions prevalent in the area. Winters are long and frigid, with temperatures dropping well below freezing, making it imperative for workers to endure cold and snowy conditions. Summers are short but can still be quite cold at times.
