Diamonds: Mined, Refined and Designed
The Royal Alberta Museum is proud to host Diamonds: Mined, Refined and Designed, a dazzling travelling exhibition that unearths the science behind the world's hardest natural substance. Originally produced by Science North (Sudbury, Ontario), Diamonds is open at the Museum until March 21, 2010.
Diamonds is an interactive, bi-lingual (English/French) exhibit that explores fascinating aspects of these rare, highly-sought-after jewels. Visitors will learn about the forces that forged these gems billions of years ago, and discover the complex processes involved in finding, extracting and cutting diamonds.
Also on display are exquisite examples of diamond jewellery, courtesy of Kline Fine Jewellery and Design of Edmonton. These magnificent pieces will illustrate the 'four Cs' of the diamond world - carat, clarity, cut and colour.
