Thirty -one -year -old Mikherre Fox went to Arkansas in July, where she wanted to fulfill a two -year -old dream in Crater of Diamonds and find a diamond there for her wedding ring.
Its finding has a clear color and weighs 2.3 carats, ie 0.46 grams. At least on Mikherre’s palm, she looks like a pretty big piece, which even after the grinding will be beautifully standing on the ring.
“I was willing to go anywhere in the world to achieve it. And I came to the conclusion that the only place where it could succeed is in Arkansas,” he quoted the happy finding of the Web The Guardian. At the same time, she added that she originally considered a shiny object on the ground to be a cobweb covered with dew, but fortunately she soon came up.
“I knelt down and cried first, but then I started to laugh,” she described her immediate emotions. In addition, she had some doubts in the first moments and finally believed only after the finding was confirmed by people from the park management.
“I didn’t have any diamond in my hands before, so I wasn’t sure, but it’s the most ministerial diamond I’ve ever seen,” she shone with happiness.

Micherre Fox found a diamond on a wedding ring in the Crater of Diamonds Park.
As far as motivation is concerned, it seems to be driven by the fact that it simply cannot afford to buy diamonds with a standard purchase. “Money occasionally runs out in marriage, but you have to be able to solve these problems with hard work,” she explained and her partner, and probably the future husband finally agrees, according to Guardian.
In the Crater of Diamonds area, diamonds were discovered in 1906, and since then these gems have been sought there in a large way, and in total over 75,000 diamonds have been found there since then. Now the area is already mined so much that it is no longer worth looking for so to speak industrially, but many individual pieces remain there.
The area is accessible to the public and can be found there as well as using various “manual” equipment, while the tools driven by electric or combustion engines are forbidden there. Diamonds then remain directly to the finders.
Mikherrin Stone is already 366. The diamond that has been found there this year, and at the same time it is the third largest. The historically largest that appeared in this area, weighed 40.23 carats (8.046 grams) in a raw state and got the name Uncle Sam. After machining it weighs 12.42 carat (2,484 grams) and is exhibited at the National Natural History Museum in Washington DC
