Didn't find a diamond but had a really good relaxing time. Got pretty excited when I found 3 pieces of calcite! Looked like diamonds to me.

Came up empty but glad we did it. Brought dirt home for the grandkids to go through. If you do it, talk to someone so you know ehat you are looking for. Wear clothes you can put in a big bag or throw away. We...More

Most finds are from walking the open field mine area and seeing on top of the ground. Sitting in the mud was fun, but exposed to weather. The real treat is the beauty of the surrounding area, getting there, and it was very inexpensive.

We enjoyed ourselves looking, digging, washing, and then--nothing. But, believe this; a week after we left, a young woman just looking, found a brown diamond about 4 carets(?) in the same general area where we were looking and digging--near the main drain pipe. I don't...More

We went here as an adventure. We didn't find any Dimonds, but while we were there someone found a 7carrot dimond.
