You arrive on a corrugated lane and the air smells faintly of dust and metal; the mine’s rim rises like a circular amphitheater and the ground underfoot is a mix of packed earth and gravel. On a surface tour of the Cullinan (Premier) Diamond Mine you walk the edges of an operation that produced the world’s largest gem-quality diamond — the 3,106-carat Cullinan — and still moves ancient rock today.
