Arkansas State Park Guide 2008 - (Page 18)

Diamonds were first discovered at this site in 1906. Since then, over 75,000 diamonds have been unearthed here. Of all these diamonds, 25,000 were found by park visitors after the Crater of Diamonds became an Arkansas state park in 1972. Notable diamonds from this site include the 40.23-carat Uncle Sam, the largest diamond ever unearthed in the U.S.; the 16.37-carat Amarillo Starlight; the 15.33-carat Star of Arkansas; and on permanent display in the park visitor center, the flawless Strawn-Wagner Diamond. Originally weighing 3.03 carats in the rough, this splendid stone was cut to a 1.09-carat gem and graded D-flawless, 0/0/0 or Triple 0, the highest grade a diamond can achieve. A diamond this perfect is so rare that many gemologists and jewelers never see one. The park features 59 Class B campsites, picnic sites, a standard pavilion (screened) with restrooms, cafe, laundry, gift shop, trails, and Diamond Springs aquatic playground, a refreshing play pool for the enjoyment of visitors of all ages. Crater of Diamonds State Park is two miles southeast of Murfreesboro on Ark. 301.
