Oh no not the diamond minds!

I know this focuses on the diamond mines, but there are remote indigenous communities that rely on the ice roads for connections in the winter and having vital supplies delivered.

Oh I totally know that, what makes it worse is diamond mines have the resources to use more expensive alternatives to ice roads.
