A massive diamond was found in Africa earlier this month.
At 478 carats, it's not the largest diamond ever (it's only the 20th). But the remarkable thing is that it's the highest color grade available (D) and it's practically flawless. When cut, it could yield the largest, highest-quality diamond ever.
Check out the story on CNN.com.
And don't forget to click on the video tab to see a quick video of this behemoth of a stone.
If you're curious, 478 carats is nearly 3.4 ounces, or 1/5 of a pound. Wow, that's a big rock!
