I got on my knees and cried, then started laughing,’ the woman said of the moment she found out she had discovered a 2.3-carat diamond

A West Village resident discovered a 2.3 carat white diamond in the Crater of Diamonds State Park in Arkansas. It's the only place in the world where the public can mine for diamonds.

Searching for a diamond for her engagement ring, 31-year-old Micherre Fox made the discovery July 29 when she nudged what she believed was an “iridescent, dew-covered spiderweb,” according to an Arkansas State Parks news release.
