Ekati’s Sable pipe to extend production by three years to 2033

Canada’s largest publicly traded diamond miner Dominion Diamond has reported upbeat metrics for the Sable project, a side development opportunity of the Jay project, which could extend the life of Ekati – Canada’s first diamond mine – by about three years to 2033. Dominion on Monday announced that a prefeasibility study on the Sable kimberlite deposit, which was located within the Core Zone Joint Venture property, in Canada’s Northwest Territories, in which the company held an 88.9% interest, would dovetail into the Jay feasibility study, which was currently underway.
