New York woman finds diamond for her engagement ring at Arkansas park

A New York woman has unearthed a 2-carat white diamond at an Arkansas state park, a gem she said will be used in her engagement ring. Micherre Fox of Manhattan spent several weeks at the state park in July after deciding to forage for a diamond, according to a news release from Waymon Cox, an assistant superintendent at Crater of Diamonds State Park. The 31-year-old woman searched for diamonds during much of July in a 14-hectare field (37-acre) that is part of the eroded surface of an ancient volcanic crater. It wasn't until her last day at the park, while walking, that she spotted something glistening at her feet. Park staff confirmed that the sparkly gem, about the size of a person's canine tooth, was a 2.3-carat diamond. 'I got on my knees and cried, then started laughing,' Fox said in the statement. It is the third-largest diamond of more than 350 diamonds found at the park this year.
