“Michael Dettlaff’s family drove 100 miles out of their way to visit Crater of Diamonds State Park – and it was worth it. After only 10 minutes digging for the prized gems, 12-year-old Michael unearthed one of the largest diamonds in park history. Michael’s dad was still in the process of renting mining equipment when Michel bounded up to him with the honey-brown diamond the size of a jelly bean. Park officials registered the 5.16 carat diamond under Michael’s name of choice – the ‘God’s Glory Diamond’ – and say it is the 27th largest diamond found there since the site became a state park in 1972.”
