Diamond Mine
There are a limited number of commercially available diamond mines currently operating in the world, with the 50 largest mines accounting for approximately 90% of global supply. Diamonds are also mined alluvially over disperse areas, where diamonds have been eroded out of the ground, deposited, and concentrated by water or weather action. There is also at least one example of a heritage diamond mine (Crater of Diamonds State Park).

Diamond Mine (Blue Rodeo Album)
''Diamond Mine'' is the second album by Blue Rodeo, released in 1989. It was recorded in 1989 at the Donlands theatre in Toronto and mixed at the Kingsway Studio in New Orleans. It is the last Blue Rodeo album to feature original drummer Cleave Anderson and includes several instrumental interludes by Bob Wiseman on the majority of versions. ''Diamond Mine'' was the second best-selling Cancon album in Canada in 1989. The band had decided to work with Malcolm Burn on the album after hearing the album '' Red Earth'' by Crash Vegas, which had been formed a year earlier by singer-songwriter Michelle McAdorey and Blue Rodeo member Greg Keelor. They hired Burn in December 1988, and set up a temporary recording studio at the abandoned Donlands theatre in the east end of Toronto for its "roomy acoustics", in part inspired by the acoustics of ''The Trinity Session'' by the Cowboy Junkies. The recording was then mixed at the New Orleans studio of Daniel Lanois. While touring to support t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
