A young girl visiting Arkansas’ Crater of Diamonds State Park on her birthday recently found a 2.95-carat golden brown diamond, the second-largest gemstone unearthed at the park this year.
Aspen Brown, 7, of Paragould, Arkansas, happened on the gemstone while looking for a place to sit and rest along a fenceline during a visit on Sept. 1.
The gem is also the first large diamond found at the Murfreesboro, Arkansas, park since an excavation project was finished in August, park officials said in a release. The surface of the extinct volcano was first plowed by farmer John Huddleston, who first found diamonds there in 1906, according to the Encyclopedia of Arkansas.
