@Rio Tinto — what an extraordinary discovery. A 158.20 carat yellow diamond is more than rare — it’s a geological marvel. And finding it in the sub-Arctic at Diavik makes it even more impressive. Only the 5th of its kind in over two decades? That’s history in your hands. At this point, even the Earth’s core is jealous of what Diavik pulls off 💎 Would be honoured to connect — SCHNAP would love to explore how we can support Rio Tinto’s ongoing work across remote operations and resource excellence. #DiamondDiscovery #RioTintoDiavik #MiningExcellence #NaturalWonders #SubArcticOperations
