diamond miners
Carbon crystal extractors
Diamond miners are workers who extract diamonds from the earth, typically through open-pit mining, underground tunneling, or alluvial operations in riverbeds.
The term covers everyone from industrial workers at major operations in Russia or Botswana to artisanal miners panning streams in Sierra Leone or Angola: Diamond miners in the region work dangerous shifts for minimal pay.
