Letseng Diamond Mine
Lesotho is home to many ‘blood’ diamond mines
These mines from Letseng and De Beers extract resources and the lives of the locals for immense profits.
This is a short post for the diamond lovers out there. Here is a factory owned by Gem Diamonds and supplies much of the diamonds to major distributors like De Beers. Well, here is a picture of the mine. And here are pictures of the village in Lesotho next to the mine where many of the laborers work. I have more pictures and will post later Still want to wear that beautiful diamond?
