...glaciers. Frequently they found grains of gold; rarely, yet often enough to stir hope, they found a small diamond. Because similar diamonds have been found in Ohio, Michigan and Wisconsin, in the terminal moraines of old glaciers, geologists figure that they were scuffed out of a parent field somewhere south or southwest of James Bay, the teat-like extension of Hudson Bay.
