This was such fun time to be able to experience up close a diamond find even though they found it earlier before I arrived! It was cool to see the confirmation process! To me these Diamonds are tough to spot, makes me wonder how many people find them but just don’t identify them in their buckets.

It happens every day most people take their centers home and bring the diamonds they find back on their next trip to have them identified and registered.

I’m tryin’ Bryan! Healing. Next surgery finally in 2 weeks after 4 reschedules. Then after knee, I think I could join you by the Fall. But not diamonds. I won’t be able to see them and that’s way too much heavy stuff and all. But we’re gonna meet, I swear! I think you’re right that most people overlook a lot. Or I could just meet up with Toni in her private dig pit - your backyard! LOL!
I found a diamond there in the 90's! Not big, or worth much, but I will never forget it. Than you for sharing your experience and getting the word out. Fantastic family place!

I want to go there just because it's on my bucket list. I don't care if I don't find a diamond. Tbh I'm part of a Minecraft realm and I really want us to all meet up there and dig for diamonds in real life lol
They should be called the happy couple. They must be living the dream because they look seriously happy.
One thing that you guys should have is a 10x magnifying glass to aid you to determine if its a diamond or quartz

Once you see that shine your first diamond gives off you'll be able to spot them. Anyway what they aren't showing is them going through the buckets of centers they pulled. That's where they are more than likely to find one on a cookie sheet under the light of the kitchen table.
this is so awesome. back in the 70s my husband & I were digging for bottles with his grandad. mining is so much cooler. love this channel & watching y'all having good "clean😊" fun. 🤗
Big thumbs up to this beautiful girl working hard ❤️
I was watching your old videos and glad I caught your new video posted in time! So excited. Was hoping you'd go there while visiting Arkansas!

You & Matrix have a cool life ☺️
What an awesome mine, finding real diamonds. So lucky to spot one amongst the quartz. That's crazy. Great video of the whole site, thank you
I think the holes are to keep it from getting vapor locked in clay and water. It seems counterintuitive and there could be loss, but it's much more productive than fighting with your shovel all day!
Thank you for sharing your adventures!! It helps me with creating my crystal mining "Bucket List"!!!
Awesome video. My wife and I are heading down to Arkansas at the end of the month to do some crystal hunting. I hope we have some good luck. We both love your videos.

That was so interesting to watch Bryan, I would not be able to.pick a diamond out of the separated material no matter how I tried, unless it was a large one lol. The young lady ought to use the shoulder harness to lift those buckets if she doesn't want a damaged spine like I have, believe me it's no joke when you are older and cant get around on your own feet. It looked chilly there too, though I laughed when Matrix marked the shovel lol. Good luck and happy fossicking my friend God bless you all love and hugs to you and Matrix Mary-Ellen UK

I'm with you & Matrix on this one... I would have to develope a whole new set of eyes and patience. To me majority could've been quartz or could've been diamonds, you 'dar'n near' need magnifying glasses from the get-go.

That was very interesting I didn't know we have diamonds in America.
There is a large crater from a meteor close to Montgomery Alabama. Have always wondered if something similar might be there
My sister and went there because it was a 14 year dream. Unfortunately it was so bloody windy and cold my eyes kept watering I couldn't see a thing. We stayed only a little while. While that was disappointing, we went to Twin Creek Mine and found SO MANY amazing quartz crystals in awesome condition. Yes I paid for a pocket and it was worth it.
