What area of this state would you recommend a person attempt to even begin to look for something worth collecting? I might get lucky one day and take a road trip west and bring my brand new Christmas gift, a rock tool like yours laying in the dirt in this video, with me to do some rock hounding.

    Be mindful of the sound when making videos, without good sound it doesn't make a quality video, at times you could barely be heard, there's a mic you can clip on your shirt right under your chin that will sound great and clear, we want to be able to hear all your words, the sound is very important, Thank you for this wonderful adventure✨🍀✨💖

He searches for a person under the rubble and searches for diseases in the human body. He looks for kidney stones and looks for dollars, euros and all paper currencies. The depth is 40 meters and the area is 1 square kilometre. There is a frequency cutting device with an area of 7 square kilometers that cuts all types of frequencies and has countless properties.
