WannaGo Posted October 6, 2009 Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 It works kind of the same way. You have a little screened boxed and you dump dirt into it and shake. It's apparently difficult to tell the diamonds from the rest of the pebbles because rough diamonds look much like any other rocks. When I was there as a kid, I think I drove the adults crazy running to them with every stone, shouting, "We're rich, we're rich!!!" If only.

Wino Posted October 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 When you wash off the rocks, won't the diamond sparkle? Perhaps industrial diamonds aren't that pretty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lvdkeyes Posted October 6, 2009 Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 I think the rocks have to be polished before they sparkle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
