    Diamond mining

    9 luglio 2017, Botswana ⋅ ☀️ 18 °C

Botswana had been a British protectorate (to protect them from potential South African invasion) until 1964 but negotiated to end this. Apparently the leaders of Botswana were aware of the presence of diamonds but kept this quiet until they were free of the British. Consequently the Botswanan people benefit from the diamond mining - it is almost certain the British would have wanted a part of that if they had been aware. We drove past the Letlhakani diamond mine. It is Co owned by De beers and the Botswanan government.Leggi altro
