Abstract:During the 1 9 8 0~~ Edgar J. Clarlz, a retired geologist and miner, recovered four large diamonds, three of record-breaking size, in northern California. According to Mr. Clarlz, all were found on Hayfork Creek, in the Trinity County portion of the Klamath Mountains. The first and smallest, found in the early 1980s, weighed 3.90 ct. Burton Westman, a consulting geologist in Boulder City, Nevada, examined the stone and confirmed its identity as diamond. Mr. Clarlz has since named the diamond "Jeopardy."
