David Larsen Description: The Great Hole of Kimberley is testimony to the diamond rush of the 1870s and which led to the rise of De Beers, a company which controls most of the world's diamond trade. The hand dug hole in the volcanic pipe is 215 metres deep. 2,722kg of diamonds were mined in the pit until it closed in 1914. Approximately 22,5 million tons of earth was moved from the site.

Drum Social Histories Description: DM2000081409:SAED:APARTHEID:JUL1976 - The day Our Kids Lost Faith - Soweto Uprising: marching Kids, in a mood common to school kids the world over, happy that they were not in class, good naturedly protesting against the use of Afrikaans a amedium of instruction at their schools. They march from Naledi Township, at the south western end of Soweto, collecting others on their route to Orlando East, the north eastern end of the vast complex. If the police had not tried to wrest the posters from the children, if they had not tried to arrest any of them, if they had not tried to set dogs on to them, if they had not fired shots, June 16 would not have been as black a day as it turned out to be.

When the Treason Trial finally collapsed and the defendants were released, happy people embraced each other. Parties were held.

I want to write an article about the situation here and to carry on with my agency work. My wife was the main surpport for our family during the trial."

Christine Nesbitt Hills Description: Pictures takenon June 5, 2004 in Alamal School in Nyala, capital of South Darfur, Sudan, show a campaign in the Darfur region to vaccinate 2.26 million children against measles. UNICEF, together with the Sudanese Ministry of Health, the World Health Organization (WHO) and other groups, is participating in the campaign. Children under the age of five are also being given vitamin A supplements. By mid 2004 in the Darfur region of western Sudan, ongoing conflict had displaced approximately 1.2 million people, most of whom were fleeing terror attacks by armed militia that included large-scale killings and abductions, including of children, as well as gang rapes, looting and burning of villages and stealing of livestock. Thousands have died from these attacks or from disease and tens of thousands of others have gathered in camps for internally displaced persons (IDPs), with little or no belongings and without adequate shelter, food or safe water and sanitation. An additional 120,000 people Collections: Independent Photographers Subcollections:
