After hearing about a boy who found a rare stone in Arkansas'
Crater of Diamonds State Park, a girl suggested that she and her family should try
digging at the site as well. Little did Tana Clymer know that she would find an
almost 4 carat canary diamond, worth around 30-40 grand.

Morning America.
I had once been to Arkansas' Crater many, many years ago.
Although I didn’t find anything, and the day was scorching hot, I still had a
wonderful time with my family. Apparently so did this girl, though with a bit
of fortune as well.
Many people have been to the Crater in previous times, and
most come out happy, even without having a big find. But it’s always nice to
see that one person a little ways away yell and beam at the world, declaring, “I
won the lottery!” Or a child shouting in delight, “I got the cereal box prize!”
Of course Tana was very excited about her find, and the people around her at
the time didn’t need to ask why.
Naming the stone the God’s Jewel Diamond, Tana plans to
either set it in a band for a ring or to use it for future college funds.
