Diamond find puts glitter into Emerald Isle

Article Abstract:

Residents of County Donegal, Ireland, hope that the region may become more prosperous following the announcement by Cambridge Mineral Resources that it has discovered minerals closely associated with diamond and sapphire near Malin Head in the Inishowen peninsula of County Donegal. However, others feel that mining could cause environmental damage to a region which has considerable tourist potential. The company predicts that a large amount of ancillary work could be created if diamonds are found in commercial quantities.

Bullets that ended a quest for justice

Article Abstract:

The recent murder of Irish journalist Veronica Guerin had been widely anticipated, as she used extremely proactive journalistic methods to uncover very sensitive issues. She had a very strong interest in all aspects of Irish politics and in crime stories, and her articles attracted a considerable following. She gained extensive knowledge of the Dublin underworld, and frequently attacked the inadequacy of Irish criminal law.
