  • I test some raw diamonds that I found in Arkansas at the Crater of Diamonds State Park. I also check out the authenticity of some of my wife's jewelry.

    Only 30% or less of the worlds diamonds will glow under a black light. I found 5 at the crater that would glow. My 1.03 white glowed blue under a black light. Really cool!!
    Good video !

    There's a lot of equipment.
    You can see a variety of devices from the oscilloscope.
    I always watch the video well.

    Another simple test is finding its specific gravity.
    It requires a gram scale, (cost around 12 bucks,), and a simple math process shown on youtube in many videos.
    When you get the stones specific gravity you can ask google or use a solids specific gravity chart found online and match the numbers up to see what you have.
    It take just a few minutes and takes out the maybe factor.

    I believe the electronic tester needs to complete a circuit, you have to hold the diamonds (or metal attached to the diamonds) as your body completes the circuit.

  • @dana6927

    Your fingers have to contact the metal electricity conductive panel on the back of the detector while testing. Otherwise results can be inaccurate.

    I suspect they found quartz at the diamond mine. I am guessing Murfeesbouroug (sp.) In Arkansas if you are in US... Quartz will scratch glass too. All of Arkansas has quartz, only a small area has diamonds. I went once, they found more than I did...

      It took me four trips to find a diamond. Few problems. One was working the west drain, east is the most productive back in the day, to now. Once I moved to the east my diamond count shot up!! Also a few regulars gave me false information!! I had to pick it up on my own. I’m at 27 diamonds. Largest is a 1.03 can’t wait to go back!

  • @workkevinw
    @workkevinw 6 років тому +6

    Hey Brad.
    The diamonds "may or may not flouese" as determined by AGA and that test I believe has been dismissed.
    Your supposed to test the tester with the test sample supplied with it in the case as well to set and read temperature settings on back of tester.
    The only way certain is specific gravity test which is simple to do at home if you have a cheap gram scale, or to have AGA certified person check with spectrometer to see what light the stone gives and filters.
    (unless you have a spectrometer on hand)..
    The specific gravity test is easy and shown on youtube.
    Try again.
    None of your tests are definative and rough stones will test different than cut with a tester..

    i heard if you put the diamond up and take the lazer and point it against the diamond a real diamond will not have a reflextion on the wall behind you, but a fake diamond the lazer will go right through the diamond and hit the wall.

  • @hillbillytunmire6079
    @hillbillytunmire6079 5 років тому +1

    I have same tester. On reverse it shows ho to set the tester for tests. Under 1/2 ct. at 30 degree C the tester should be on 5 to 7 setting according to size and room temperature. Had pawn shop kid do me the same way when all I wanted was a value. He just seemed too eager to convince me they were fake and buy them for next to nothing. A jeweler showed me how to properly use the tester and I did sell them at $7500. More than the kid wanted to give. So it’s just as simple to find a person of no bias to tell you what’s real or not. Middle eastern stores seem to be as incompetent as the pawn shops. Take them to several places you’ll find a good one sooner or later.

      I think what you are asking is if the raw diamonds are sharp faced crystals, they aren't more clear pebble like.
      Answer In Portuguese:
      Eu acho que o que você está perguntando é se os diamantes brutos são cristais afiados, eles não são mais claros como seixos.
