What is something you learned very late in life

The mine is a 32 acre ploughed field

There's a diamond mine in America that’s open to the public. Its the only diamond mine that’s open to the public in the world and you’re allowed to keep any of the precious gems you find there.

The mine is called the Crater of Diamonds and located in Arkansas. Since becoming a state park in 1972, over 31,000 diamonds have been found there.

A recent 9 carat diamond find

Diamonds have continuously been discovered in the field since 1906, including the graded-perfect Strawn-Wagner Diamond, found in 1990, and the Uncle Sam diamond, found in 1924, which at over 40 carats is the largest diamond ever found in the United States.
