    In the Arctic, in February, “the thermometer plunges to way below -30°C”. You don’t need to go to the Arctic for that in Canada. I live just 4 hours northwest of Toronto, ON and having several days of -40°C , a couple times a winter is not uncommon. Kids are expected to bundle up and walk to their bus stop until the temps go below -35°C, WITHOUT the windchill factored in. With the windchill that could easily feel like -40°C or lower. A common Scandinavian saying also applies here, “there is no bad weather, just bad winter clothing”. :)

      How can you live in a place that cold. I live in the north eastern United States, and that is cold enough for me.

    Why are they still using explosives to mine the diamond? Sounds so dangerous. I thought these days, the mining industry has shifted to boring machines to mine the rocks.

      Nope blasting.. the areas always cleared prior to a blast.. it's generally very safe
