LOL, Montana (and Wyoming), the diamond capital!

HELENA, Mont. (AP) -- The bright green rocks jutting through the prairie soil were hard to miss, but Tom Charlton still couldn't believe his eyes.

It was kimberlite, the molten rock in which diamonds are found, and preliminary tests had yielded a microscopic diamond. If more are found at the 80-acre site known as the Homestead property, the land could become the state's first-ever commercial diamond operation and the only working diamond mine in the United States, geologists said.

Yup, sounds like Montana (and the US in general), is a hotbed of diamond mining and production for North America. We should get right on this one...
