A man who picked up what he thought was a piece of glass at a state park says he later learned his jelly bean-sized find was something much more valuable: It was a 4.87-carat diamond.
Jerry Evans visited Crater of Diamonds State Park in Murfreesboro, Arkansas, for the first time with his girlfriend last spring, he told park officials.
Evans says about 10 minutes after they arrived, he spotted what looked like glass a few feet away on top of a plowed ridge, according to a news release.

First discovered by Galileo in 1610, Saturn’s rings have long fascinated scientists. Ring formation and evolution offer tantalizing clues to planetary formation processes. The first few million years after the formation of our solar system 4.57 billion years ago were tumultuous, with collisions between planetesimals becoming common. Astronomers previously assumed that Saturn’s rings came from this early period, which was supported by their orbits and predominantly water-ice processes. However, understanding of orbital mechanics and particle collisions showed that the ring material should be constantly
BRUSSELS (AP) — The European Union imposed sanctions on the world’s biggest diamond mining company and its chief executive officer on Wednesday as part of what it called its “unwavering commitment” to Ukraine in the war against Russia.
The move targeted Alrosa, which accounts for about 90% of Russia’s diamond production, and CEO Pavel Marinychev. The EU headquarters said the company “constitutes an important part of an economic sector that is providing substantial revenue” to Moscow.

This collection has a scale and a size element to it that is considered men but at the same time, it’s also made for women. I’m going to wear it for sure,” says Amfitheatrof, who was also behind the launch of LV Volt, the brand’s successful unisex line of fine jewellery, in 2020.
A men’s collection lends itself to experimenting with materials, Amfitheatrof explains: “Titanium is used in
