I’m surprised the State of Arkansas never passed a law saying “All You Found Diamonds Belong Us”.

While governor, Slick almost sold the mining rights in this State Park to some criminals whose names you might remember.

The story was told in the book “Clinton Cash” and in this article

I bet it loses a lot when cut.

My wife’s engagement ring was only 1/4 carat but it was a keepsake. I could not afford it so she paid for it. She also picked it out.

There are several parks that permit people to keep diamonds and gold found. Read something about a kid who found a really big nugget of gold.

I think this is the same park where a boy found a 7 Caret brown diamond. The park charges $10 per person to scratch around in the dirt. They plow the dirt every other week ( I think) for fresh dirt.

I’m not the sharpest tool in the shed, but I once was a science teacher in public schools.........how does a diamond have its edges worn smooth? If it is harder than all other materials?

Enquiring minds want to know.........

carats cut color clarity

most (99.9%) found diamonds are turned into industrial abrasives
