    Ten dollars to be mined, that is awesome.

  3. Toby Spence on October 27, 2020 at 2:23 pm

    There are rock hounds of all ages but he is right, younger people aren’t as common but thanks to the metaphysical community it has created a new appreciation for minerals, specimens, gemstones. Some people collect because they believe they stones have healing properties then sometimes they graduate from that and just become normal collectors and rock hounds. Many rock hounds and miners don’t like the metaphysical community, well mainly the sellers because they take basic common minerals and rename them and then sell them for way more than what they are worth

    That local rock-hound reminds me of obelix, souly based off the way he walks.

    When I was 8 me and my brother were digging and found a bag that had over 100 tiny diamonds worth over 2 million dollars and the inspectors said we lived in a farm of diamonds but my dad did not want to bargain with them even tho they offered 10 millions dollars for the three acres we still live here our location is secret and we find diamonds all the time we are rich but we are not allowed to waste too much cuase then ppl will try to farm our land but we are millionaires.

    Did u like my fake ass story

  34. John Dough on October 27, 2020 at 2:55 pm

    Why the cluck would you sell a diamond mine only to get 50% back in return? People can be ignorantly greedy.

  35. Mike on October 27, 2020 at 2:59 pm

    If they aren’t digging deep, dim how they aren’t just moving around the same dirt

  36. Mollie Estrada on October 27, 2020 at 3:01 pm

  37. Secret4u2hear Raechelle G. on October 27, 2020 at 3:03 pm

  43. SpetsnatzLegion 336 on October 27, 2020 at 3:09 pm

    If stocks is gambling for rich people, gemstone sifting is gambling for hillbillies.

  44. mr magoo on October 27, 2020 at 3:09 pm

    Poop sluice…

  45. S_G _T on October 27, 2020 at 3:10 pm

    I’ll be visiting Crater of Diamonds right after Thanksgiving to spend two days searching, and see that the park is not renting equipment due to Covid-19.

    Would a hardware store carry most of this equipment, like a sifter? It looks like a bucket, shovel, trowel, rubber boots, perhaps a magnfying glass would be necessary. Anything else?

  46. Stadtjer on October 27, 2020 at 3:10 pm

    Loved it. Would really like trying that for a day. Also, presenter seems like a really chill/calm and genuine guy; subscribed.

  47. Connor m on October 27, 2020 at 3:11 pm

    Anyone hear that massive fart at 16:14 haha

  48. Homer Hale on October 27, 2020 at 3:14 pm

    Heard on the radio this week someone found a 9 carat one…..WOW!

  49. Gamer K on October 27, 2020 at 3:14 pm

    Sheriff – They live in tents
    Dumbass – They do that today?

  50. Melvin Collins on October 27, 2020 at 3:14 pm

    You need to get your info straight… these diamonds were NOT created below the mantle then pushed up… they were created by glaciers… Glaciers that started in the north picked up/carried coal (from Michigan or where ever) and carried it to this area (Arkansas)… As it was trundled along, the pressure from the BILLIONS OF TONS of dense glacial ice compressed the carbon in the coal into diamonds… When the glacier melted, the diamonds were left in situ in Arkansas… Get your damned facts right…
