Yes, you can find real diamonds in Arkansas.  The state is a geologic wonder.  There is a place near the tiny town of Caddo Gap, where you can literally see the very center of the eroded Ouachita Mountains.  Do you like quartz crystals?  You can dig them out of the loose earth on the side of the road.  Take a trip to Magnet Cove, Arkansas and find minerals found no other place on earth.  You can dig for diamonds (yes, real diamonds) and keep what you find at the State Park near Murfressboro.  Part of the premise of A Gathering of Diamonds is a previously undiscovered deposit of diamonds.  Really possible, you say?  Yes, it is very possible.  In fact, it is likely.  The Ouachita National Forest encompasses hundreds of square miles of wilderness area.  Read A Gathering of Diamonds and learn what else lies within the forest.  Available at barnesandnoble.com, amazon.com, and lulu.com.
