Thankfully, capturing blue diamonds in the company's old-school slot proves a lot easier than capturing the coruscating precious stones in the wild. If you want to clap eyes on a blue diamond, your best bet is to mosey on over to a Red Tiger Gaming-affiliated online casino and get fired into Blue Diamond.

The town includes a park, private pool, library, elementary school, event hall, church, and mercantile / gas station. The mercantile (general store) was built in 1942 and originally sold household staples and sundries to residents who were mostly miners at the Blue Diamond Mine. The store has maintained its original external look. Walls inside the store showcase many of the town's historical photos, courtesy of the Blue Diamond Historical Society, a 501c3 all-volunteer organization.

Blue Diamond is the site of Cottonwood Spring (formerly known as Ojo de Cayetana, or Pearl Spring), a watering place and camp site on the Old Spanish Trail and the later Mormon Road between Mountain Springs and Las Vegas Springs. The springs are located on a mountainside south of the town at 36°02′44″N115°24′22″W / 36.04556°N 115.40611°W at an elevation of 3409 feet.[2]

The nearby gypsum mine was purchased in 1923 by the Blue Diamond Corporation of California.[3] The company opened a wallboard manufacturing plant at the site in 1941, and then began building a company town in 1942.[4][5] The village of Cottonwood became known as Blue Diamondville that year, when a post office opened under that name.[3][6] The name was changed to Blue Diamond later in the year, although some authorities continued to refer to it as Blue Diamondville until at least 1950.[6][7]
