Morlock Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I read a few days ago where a young kid from Arkansas found a 7+ carat diamond. Must have been thrilled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last two big (for the Crater of Diamonds) carat finds (5+ to 7+ carat range) were made by total noob first time visitors to the pipe.. Both were discovered by young lads within their first thirty minutes in the diamond field: the earlier directly along side one of the few paths and the latter along what I believe is called the south drainage.. Neither knew what they had until they were leaving and having their finds checked by staff.. In the case of the find a couple years ago, when the boy showed his find to his mother she said: You couldn't have found a diamond, we've only been here twenty minutes.. Good thing the kid stuck it in his pocket instead of chucking it.. Swamp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
