A Picture Of a Diamond

I just found a picture of a diamond before it is cut 

Where to Find Diamonds

Diamond-digging tools
If you do not want a package
you should probably get these
supplies.
  There is a place in Arkansas called Crater of diamonds State park in  order to find diamonds I would most likely use the basic diamond hunting kit it comes with every thing to the right but if you do not have all these supplies it cost $8 to rent for the day. I am sorry but I do not know where to find a picture of a real diamond looks like before it is broken open. I am sorry I did not post anything for a long time.

Calcite


                                             Calcite


 Calcite is very easy to cut through. You can do a lot of things with it, it might notbe the best thing to cut or make jewlery out of but it is a good start for beginers if you are a beginer at cutting rocks than I would suggest using this.

Geodes


     


This geode has amethyst in it, a dark purple gem with beautiful sparkles. It is hollow and if you are looking for a geode to break yourself you need to get the lightest one if you don't it will be full unlike this one it is very hollow inside.

                                        Geodes      

 Most geodes are bad looking on the outside but they look good on the inside. If you look at the amethyst on the inside it is still growing.

Sand Roses


                                   Sand Roses
                  

Sand roses are formed when lightning hits sand.  The sand hardens and becomes this it is very similar to sandstone except it has more shape than sandstone does. It is amazing how lightning and sand can make this beautiful stone. But lightning is so ugly and sand is so cool but ugly plus cool makes beautiful.
