DeBeers Victor diamond mine marks 10 years, under shadow of plans to close next year

It's been 10 years since Ontario's first diamond mine opened in the swampy James Bay lowlands, about 100 kilometres west of Attawapiskat.

Victor Mine is set to shut down in early 2019.

The mining company threw itself a 10th birthday party on Aug. 15, 2018, and invited journalists to come and take a rare look at one of the province's most remote workplaces.
