How do you do it!??!! U always find the coolest stuff!!! When I saw the agate I knew right where u were! I’ve been out there Twice now and haven’t been able to find purple. I love the multi colored ones and the blue in the white powder. Is that bentonite clay? Such an amazing place! A lot of activity’s have gone on with the earth there! Wish we could see a glimpse of it millions of years ago! Nice post thx!
I live in Massachusetts and we have loads of feldspar n quartz . The crazy thing I actually lived in Arizona for 3 years down in Green Valley I took care of my moms there and I wasn’t into rockhounding when I was in AZ. My sister n her husband are big into the rock n mineral business I know I moved them stuffs heavy they have a thing at the Tucson show every year. Rockhounding in Ma well eastern ma stinks
Mono Lake , on the Nevada California border has obsidian instead of gravel all over the ground. Solid obsidian everywhere. Went back to twin creek and did way better than before. Happy Trials 😝😎👍👍👍
Surface gathering as you did in your video looks enjoyable. I'm in MN near Lake Superior, a very different environment. I would enjoy visiting AZ and trying a desert gathering trip.
What part of Az are you in? If I would guess I would say Apache junction area ? Idk obviously but fun to guess . Great video bro really enjoyed it and made me jealous
Awesome scenery there. Very cool vid, fun to see all the variety of rocks. I thought all Apache Tears were greenish black, translucent, marble shaped, like the 1 small one I got in a little bag of Lynch Gizmo dirt. 😂🐊
It looks real beautiful older I can't wait to try getting out that way gotta hit the lotto that's where I'm going to take my dad do you see a lot of rattlesnakes and scorpions and tranchulas what's all the gear you need to be safe in the desert we're from Michigan peace and nugs gold nugs that is👍👌👋🤟✊👊🤠
I spent 3 months in Arizona, never saw a live snake or a scorpion but I left at the end of April so it wasn't hot hot yet. I recommend snake gaters, knee pads and good leather gloves, never hurts to have a side arm with snake shot. Arizona is open carry even for non-residents. I'm from Michigan too, I sold the house in January and started this new life then. Thank you so much for watching.
Great video Paul! Burro Creek area is great place to spend time ..... might even find gold in the area. Gpaa has a claim (Sasquatch) on road to Baghdad mining area. Happy Hunting!! JnJ near Prescott
The Bagdad mine retention pond wall was visible several miles out, that place must be huge. I will do more exploring next time I am in Stanton. Thanks for watching "Bo" say hi to Jeanne for me.
Will you give a better indication of where you were on this fantastic adventure! I’m from Florida and want to come to AZ to find some cool agates like you found! Please, please give me more directions to this spot. Lin Hill
Enjoyed this, long time lover of rocks, amateur prospector and now starting to do actual rockhounding! Thanks to awesome videos like this that are a good learning tool. You earned a subscriber. I'm in Southern California, born and raised here and hate to see what is happening to this beautiful state. Thank you for the opportunity to travel along....Heavy buckets and heavy pans my friend.
Accidental life lesson in this one. You’ll miss things if you don’t change your perspective from time to time. Amazing how different the ground looks when you turned around. I’d be keen to watch how you take a tile saw to some different types of rocks. Oh, and for the love of all things holy, buy some gloves.
@@prospectorpaul1 Thank you might make a trip just to see my first agate. Only saw someone else's apache tear but I did get to hold it. Same place for the tears?
Thanks for sharing your adventure. I agree with euler41 on the changing of your prospective from time to time. When you aimed the camera with the sun at your back, the field of view came to life with glimmer. It was amazing. I'm glad you didn't disturb a scorpion or slice your finger tips open from a sharp agate or tear because of those tattered gloves. There was a moment in your video when the landscape reminded me of what we are seeing from Mars and the rover there...minus the vegetation and clouds, of course. I might start calling you "Perseverance Paul". Too bad you don't have a drone to cover some of the ground for you...that would be "Ingenuity"! Thanks again Perseverance Paul....you're a rock star!
Thank you for your insight Tom, I do have new gloves. I do have a drone, I can't get the video off of my phone. I am working on it. Thank you soooo much for watching and commenting, I do appreciate it!
Beautiful Apache tears. The agate are extraordinary. Just getting started with rocks and crystals. Gold mining has been our thing till we located some beautiful crystals. We found your site and love your videos. We live in SW AZ below Tucson. Just saw my first tear a couple weeks ago. Never seen agates, you took my breath away w your finds. Thanks for sharing, what a blessing
Realy cool stuff thanks for sharing
Those things really do work....
I had no negativity at all watching this !!✌️🤣✅🍻
LOL thanks Jason. I will be looking for your video today. Started digging gold here in Oregon yesterday, it is rose/copper colored, kind of neat

Do you ever give GPS coordinates

Cool vids Paul.
Very informative.
I'd like to see vids on your cleaning/cutting/polishing process. Keep them coming!
Great video loved it. where were you finding the Apache tears
Great video. Perhaps more gloves like everyone is saying might be a good idea. I think you got your money's worth from the current pair, LOL.
New gloves are in hand :) Thank you for watching!

Got to git my moneys worth out of the gloves :)
where was this taken?
Where are you finding all of these Agates at ? I need to make a trip out there
13 miles off of I-93 down Burro Creek crossing road. North west Arizona, south of Kingman
@@prospectorpaul1 Thank you might make a trip just to see my first agate. Only saw someone else's apache tear but I did get to hold it. Same place for the tears?
@@prospectorpaul1 I know exactly where that's at, mm 13. I have so many lol. Where's the apache tears tho?
