		While forestry has long been the economic foundation of the city of Prince Albert, Saskatchewan (population 39,000) on the lower stretches of the North Saskatchewan River, promising diamond exploration ventures taking place at Fort à la Corne, 65 kilometres downstream of the city, may offer the province's forestry capital a glittering economic future.
		Fort à la Corne kimberlite - volcanic rock containing "pipes" or veins of diamonds, named for the city of Kimberley, where the rock was first found - is thought to have the highest concentration of diamondiferous kimberlite in the world.
		Testing of the Fort à la Corne field has been underway for several years, with early results suggesting that the Saskatchewan discovery, along with recent diamond mine developments in the Northwest Territories, could elevate Canada to one of the top positions in the world diamond industry.
