| Facility: | Crater of Diamonds State Park |
| Description: | Crater of Diamonds State Park is the only diamond-producing site in the world where the public can search for diamonds. And the policy here is "finder's keepers." The diamonds you find are yours to keep. Visitors search atop a 37 1/2-acre plowed field, the eroded surface of an ancient, gem-bearing volcanic pipe. Prospectors enter the field through the Diamond Discovery Center that offers exhibits and an A/V program explaining the three most popular methods of searching for diamonds. The park staff provides free identification and certification of diamonds. Historical structures, old mining equipment, washing pavilions, and sun shelters are located on the field. Diamond mining tools are available for rent or purchase. Diamonds and other minerals are identified at the Diamond Discovery Center. |
