The government of the Northwest Territories partnered with the Antwerp World Diamond Centre in co-hosting a 30-minute “diamond experience” for Belgium’s king and queen Tuesday.

The diamond expo, primarily sponsored by the Antwerp World Diamond Centre, was an invitation-only event at Ottawa’s Canadian Museum of Nature from 4:30 to 5:00 p.m.

The goal was to promote and profile the Northwest Territories as one of the leading diamond-producing regions in the world, with the royals as the primary audience, according to Pamela Strand, N.W.T.’s assistant deputy minister of mineral and petroleum resources.
