DIAMOND MINING
At Dam Mining we do Diamond mining which is the process of extracting rough diamonds from primary or secondary geological deposits through specialized industrial or artisanal methods.
OPEN PIT MINING
Used for surface-level kimberlite pipes; involves removing topsoil, blasting the rock, and hauling ore with massive trucks.
ALLUVIAL MINING
Focuses on secondary deposits where river currents, wind, and rain have eroded kimberlite pipes and washed diamonds downstream into gravel layers.
UNDERGROUND MINING
Used when deposits go deep below the surface; involves sinking vertical shafts and horizontal tunnels to blast and collect ore.
MARINE MINING
Uses specialized offshore vessels with heavy seabed crawlers and suction pipes to harvest diamonds hundreds of meters underwater
