Crater of Diamonds State Park is located in Murfreesboro, Arkansas and is a one-of-a-kind State Park that allows visitors to search for and keep diamonds and a variety of other minerals for a modest fee. The diamond field is located on an eroded volcanic crater. Lamproite magma brought the diamonds up to the surface through a volcanic pipe. The park plows the field occasionally to help loosen the soil. Diamonds have been found on the land since 1906 with Uncle Sam (40.23 carats), and Amarillo Starlight (16.37 carats), being the largest diamonds to be found on the land that is now Crater of the Diamonds State Park. Smaller diamonds are found almost daily at the Park. We were not lucky enough to find one. #diamondswerenotagirlsbestfriend
