Visitor Finds 2.30-Carat Diamond at Arkansas’ Crater of Diamonds State Park

On Friday, September 27, a guest visiting Arkansas’ Crater of Diamonds State Park found a 2.30-carat white diamond in the park’s 37.5-acre diamond search area. This is the third diamond over two carats registered this year and the second-largest diamond registered in 2024.

Eager for the day, the finder arrived at the park when the doors opened at 8 a.m. They rented a basic kit from the park’s Diamond Discovery Center and started out wet sifting, a searching method that involves washing dirt from diamond-bearing gravel through screens of graduated sizes in water. After a few hours of no luck, the guest decided to try surface searching, stating, “If I find a diamond today, it will probably be right here on the surface.”

Many of the park’s largest diamonds are found on the surface. “We periodically plow the search area to loosen the diamond-bearing soil and promote natural erosion,” Assistant Park Superintendent Waymon Cox said. “As rain falls on the field, it washes away the dirt and uncovers heavy rocks, minerals and diamonds near the surface.” Read more

Water Levels at Cornwall Flooding in Cheboygan County Drawn Down to Meet Dam Safety Recommendations

The Cornwall Creek Flooding, located within the Pigeon River Country State Forest, is a popular northern Michigan location for fishing, paddling and other recreation. Over the last couple of months, the water level of the 161-acre lake was lowered by several feet to address safety concerns with the Cornwall Dam, which creates the impoundment, and to prepare for the planned renovation of the dam.

A series of safety inspections by the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy — the state agency that regulates dams — determined that Cornwall Creek Dam and its water control infrastructure were in poor condition. A partial drawdown of the water level in the Cornwall Flooding impoundment was necessary to reduce the risks of dam failure, until problems with the dam are resolved. Read more
