This book is intended to provide the reader with information regarding diamond prospecting. It also points out areas to prospect. I have prospected in this area of Virginia and West Virginia in the past, but my ill health prevents me doing it anymore. It's all yours now. Finding diamonds will not be that difficult, but remember, they should be two carats or larger and free of flaws to be worth much. You may want to save everything smaller, too. Some third world company may purchase them from you.
