Channel: Blackberry Hill House
Date: 2019-09-14

Heading out to Crater of Diamonds State Park in Arkansas but not sure what to bring, what equipment you'll need, what to expect at the mine field? How do I use a screen or saruca to sift for diamonds? What does wet sifting, dry sifting and surface searching mean? 

We try to answer all these questions in this quick and informative guide to Crater Of Diamonds State Park! There is a ton of great information out there from some very knowledgeable people. But it is overwhelming and was hard for us to figure out where to start. 
That is why we put together this "Quick Start Guide" to help everyone get an idea of what to expect and the basics of diamond hunting at the park. We have also included some resources (linked below) to help guide you to more in depth information. Even if you don't go any further than watching this video, we really urge you to join the Crater of Diamonds Facebook group. It is the most helpful resource you'll find out there!
