The Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) on NASA’s Terra satellite captured this image of the Catoca diamond mine on June 21, 2001. In this false-color image, vegetation appears bright green, water appears dark blue, and bare ground appears beige-gray. Mining operations have removed vegetation cover, so the mine contrasts starkly with its surroundings.

According to a report issued by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the Catoca diamond mine requires the movement of a metric ton of rock for every carat mined. The mine’s massive movement of rock and soil is evident from the large areas of bare earth shown in this picture.
