  • Scott Kreykes moved to Southwest Arkansas from Sibley, Iowa, so he could hunt for genuine diamonds at The Crater of Diamonds State Park. The first diamond he ever found was a perfect, lovely 34-point (over 1/3 carat), white macle. Macles are naturally flat, triangular-shaped diamonds. They are very rare, special, and unique. With a start like that on diamond finding you can really get hooked and become a Craterhead, and Scott certainly has. He has stuck with the search and has now found well over TWO HUNDRED diamonds at this unique, state park.

      Yes, and he earned and worked for every one of those 200-plus diamonds. I am glad you can appreciate it. Thank you for watching this video and for commenting.

    That's my dad!! I love looking at all the diamonds he finds. The 35,000 diamond he got to name and he named it "Leo" after his first Grandson ❤

      I like your dad. I know Scott well. I have seen photos of him with Leo. I tease him that I can tell they are related because their hair was exactly the same in the photo. We joke with each other a lot. Did he ever show you the photo of me down on my knee proposing? I think he just wanted my diamond.

    13:06 You can see the octahedron shape on that diamond, I’m surprised they registered it. Although I guess they registered David Andersons B.U.D. Out of the 24 diamonds I have found, one had half the diamond octahedron shaped and the other half resorbed. (They wouldn’t register it) There was another that had the wrong texture because it was too frosty. But was very clearly resorbed. (They wouldn’t register that one either) I can understand more why they couldn’t register the frosty one but my octahedron diamond shows very similar characteristics to B.U.D. With lots of trigons on one face of it.
    At the end of the day it is what it is, but I guess I’m not happy that 2 of my diamonds they won’t register. The more and more diamonds that I see get registered with these same characteristics, just makes me think that the reason they won’t register them is because I’m kinda a nobody to them, or because it’s not a news worthy diamond.
    Mabye I should just give up on this, I don’t know. I’m still going to be going back and finding more diamonds, but this just annoys me.

      That is sad. I have found an octahedron and a frosty diamond. I got both of them registered. When you plan to return to the Crater, please let me know. I will go with you and argue for you. We WILL get them registered. I understand how they have to be careful. Some people have brought in diamonds from Africa to register. Yours are not. Write me when you plan to head back to the state park. My email is usadiamonds@yahoo.com
