Yes, diamonds have been found in Mississippi, notably in the area around the town of Tishomingo, where small diamonds were discovered in the early 20th century.

Overall, diamonds are much more notable in Mississippi's geological history compared to gold.

Did they ever place diamonds or precious stones in a sterling silver setting?
Sure. In the past people would not see diamonds set in silver or turquoise in gold. Now you see both, though not very common. Turquoise has been found in silver in the South West, thus associated with silver. Sterling Silver is a bit soft for setting diamonds, thus the setting either has to have some gold in it, or copper or be very heavy ( the prongs) of something to make up for the softness of the sterling. Thus the exact same style that you see done in gold could not be done in sterling . That does not exclude the combination though
