In 1942, there were three men who had spent three months looking for diamonds in the Venezuelan water coast. One of them name Solano Rafael, woke up one morning feeling discouraged and physically exhausted. He then announced to his two other friends, " I am through here, there is no use going on any longer", I have picked up 999,999 stones (pebbles) so far, and there is no trace of a diamond! If I pick up another, it will be a million, so what's the use, I am quitting.
Almost immediately, one of the two other men screamed back at Solano " pick up another and make it a million". "All right", said Solano and stopped, put his hands on a pile of grizzy stones and pulled out one.
"Here it is", he said "the last one" but was unusual, almost the size of an egg and was heavier than the remaining 999,999 stones! He looked closer and screamed: Boys, "it is a diamond ".

Harry wilson, a New York jewel dealer paid Solano $200,000 for that million pebble. Name, the liberator, "it was the largest and purest diamond ever found".
