With this "social distancing" going on, its a perfect time for exploring! I'm going out today to do a little geological trip to a local cave. I have not done ant serious collecting in over 10 years and since I have the week off of work, time to enjoy some 'me' time. I love your videos and collection! Stay safe as well! Best Wishes Emma! 😊
most of mine go in the aquarium, 90% of my finds are lepidodendron and stigmaria with one calamites which is on the kitchen windowsill, have a few cool little crinoids that look like mini shark jaws in one tank.
Those display cabinets are goals😍 I keep thinking I have enough storage for my stones, but it never lasts long! I'd love to just have all the walls be shallow shelves😄 Lovely!!
I really appreciate this video I just started a gem collection my grandmother who sadly past had many gems I had some beacuse my mom gave it to me so far I have some pearls, Ruby’s (my fav is ruby), amethyst, pink zucon (yes pink zucon is one gem not too) and a lot of other stuff! Thank you for this video It really helps me!
Greetings! I was lucky to find your videos tonight as a fellow avid collector of rocks, minerals, fossils, and seashells. I converted a bedroom into what I call my personal Natural History Museum back in 2011, and it doubles as a plant conservatory with lots of supplemental lighting. This room has shelves and tables with hundreds of rocks, minerals and fossils - all labeled individually. But I added a theme to the display (Enchanted Forest) and weaved in drift wood, faeries, sheet moss, sculpted wooden mushrooms from Bali, etc. into the display. All of my minerals and rocks have small labels in front of them giving their name and place of origin if known. The living room has a seashore theme with several hundred mollusk shells and coral. I also have seascape paintings on the wall and carvings of shore birds on the coffee table and floor. But the shells have a hidden number label attached to them, and I created a separate Word document that lists that number's scientific name, the geographical range of the species, and other info. I have too many shells to create labels in front of them so I can save space. Off topic, chalcedony is pronounced kal-sed-oh-nee - at least here in the U.S. Thanks heaps for your videos, luv.
Nice little collection you've got there, Emma! Your enthusiasm about fossils and geology is infectious; something that is not often seen in someone your age. You said you collect most of what you have. Have you ever had to opportunity to collect in Scotland? Great minerals/fossils up there if you know where to look. Also, since you enjoy fossils, check out the Michigan Rocks channel for fossils and other neat rocks from the upper Great Lakes region of North America. Stay safe young lady and Happy Holidays! ;-)
Hello 👋🏻 ! Thanks you for this cool video ! I really enjoyed it ! You have a beautiful collection of amazing rocks and fossil ! I hope you will keep filming such pretty videos !!! Good luck ! 😌😉
BeauTiFuL collecTion' I have a RocK that is the Only 1 on thePlaneT and it is IRRITATING that I have to listen to Other RKS saying my RocK is PainTed when it is Unique .................................
I loved your collection, it's so full of stories :) Why don't you build a shadow box to house the small little shells and fossils you have? I have seen some while planning how to exhibit my (yet quite small) rock collection, I think it would help you a lot
Watched this with my seven year old boy/girl twins and now my daughter, having also heard about Mary Anning at school and a visit to the natural history museum later, thinks geologists are the coolest people ever and wants to become one. Thanks :-)
cal said o knee.... but hey, I found out when I was 25 that it wasn't pronounced moly-b-denim... turns out folks had just assumed I was being funny....
I really need a cabinet like you have. I have an old rotating Timex watch display case that my better specimens are in. I don't rotate it because of what might happen. Lol! And I like to collect faces, too. How can you just leave it there. I collect hearts also. Thanks for sharing. I really enjoy your fossil prep videos.
Lovely collection P.S. it should be noted that sand tiger shark teeth, and, anterior teeth from goblin sharks are very similar in appearance. There are slight differences that can be observed to distinguish the two, there are numerous articles available online that detail the differences if you feel the need for certainty in this respect. 🙂
I have 1000 iCloud someone I was one years old who ever I’ve taken of my Phibro rocks always use a cleanser 80 years old the clown shells they’re 18 if you want to know that her Crabshell thought well well I sell rocks are thousands and millions of road I have big piece of ass right proximal rocks while pieces and the ones I have Crystal like wrong swimsuit sure I have billions and millions of rocks I don’t want to not strictly well keeping the little ones I don’t know why the ones that are on the road are use the clouds here though
I loved this video! I also have been collecting since I was a kid and I have amassed quite a large collection as well. Unfortunately most of mine is in boxes😢. I love those cabinets. I can never find anything narrow like that!
Don't know if you ever found out about the shell near 12:30 but I think it's a wentle trap... At 17:15 I thought you were asking what type of face it looks like, not the type of rock, so I came up with it looks like a giraffe that just got it's little toe stepped on.
Haha! I've heard chalcedony pronounced about five different ways and I don't think any of them are really "wrong". Personally, I pronounce it "kall-sed-uhn-ee".
Just found your channel and I'm so glad that I did. I run a rockhounding channel finding Agates and Petrified Wood, so It's always nice to stumble across a new UA-camr mineral junkie! You've got a very nice collection.
Loved the vid dude, what a great collection , you’ve inspired me to display more of my ever mounting collection of shells, rocks , minerals and metal detecting finds , I’ve subscribed, I’ve got many strange rocks that look like heads and faces too, I’m amazed your as crazy as me , brilliant 💀😎🌴👍
I don't know a whole lot about rocks/fossils and minerals but I think they're really cool. I've got a tupperware container full of shark teeth and small rocks, shells and fossils, that I found at a thrift store. Some nice stuff. I've gotten more interested in rocks, as a buddy of mine and I, are looking into making guitar picks out of stones and copper (not combined, on their own). I have a beautiful piece of ocean jasper that was made into a guitar pick by stoneworks guitar picks. Let's just say I've "misplaced" it lol. Lastly, a shark tooth makes for a decent guitar pick, as well. Great sound. You have an amazing collection, Em! Thanks for sharing your shelves and your passion for rocks etc.
Great collection Emma I tried to uploads my pine cone for you from your previous video and also the megalodons tooth but unable to do so by UA-cam loving lockdown only way it could be any better is if it was with you x
Emma: I would organize your collection in the following way: (1) rocks and minerals by type: sedimentary, igneous or metamorphic. (2) shells: gastropods, pelecypods, echinoderms, etc. (3) fossils: vertebrate, invertebrate (subcategories cephalopods, pelecypods, gastropods, echinoderms, etc.), plant, and other. Organized in this way it would be much easier to locate specimens. Also, I like your idea of thinning out the collection. You really do have a lovely collection of specimens!! I envy your cabinets!!!!!
Your mom: “Why is your backpack so heavy? Are you carrying rocks or something?
You: Funny you should say that..
Haha 😂😂
@Alfonso Lopez hahaha I imagine

Enjoy! I hope you find some good thing ♥️ thank you, you too! ☺️
Jesus Christ, Marie! They're minerals!
Seriously, you have so many good collections of them!
your collection is great and you are as beautiful as a precious stone !
most of mine go in the aquarium, 90% of my finds are lepidodendron and stigmaria with one calamites which is on the kitchen windowsill, have a few cool little crinoids that look like mini shark jaws in one tank.
Amazing collection! It’s really cool how you display them and everything, where do you look to buy these beautiful rocks and minerals?
I find most of them... But if I spot a beauty in a charity shop I may pick it up 😊
Wow! I just pick out a couple of rocks from places I visit and have them in a small glass jar, that’s pretty much it. But this is really cool!
I was starting to bug out into a anxious mess. This is very calming.
Aww you got this! glad you found it calming, sending hugs 💜
Hi Gem,
The flint fossil at 17: 11 is a sponge Plinthosella resonans.
Wonderful collection you have
Thank you!
Cal - said - O - knee = chalcedony. lolol But some pronounce the 'ch' like with malachite or chalcopyrite. There are no rules. lol
Très Jolie Collection🔬🍀🎬Alex le Silex France🍾🙏🌌
Those display cabinets are goals😍
I keep thinking I have enough storage for my stones, but it never lasts long! I'd love to just have all the walls be shallow shelves😄
Lovely!!

Human nesting behaviors are absolutely fascinating.
I have a dinosaur fossle. It has a nice red color to it with a rough texture to it and I was hoping that you would know what type of dinosaur it is?

Azurite and malachite together is a beautiful specimen also Love your videos
Hello 👋🏻 ! Thanks you for this cool video ! I really enjoyed it ! You have a beautiful collection of amazing rocks and fossil ! I hope you will keep filming such pretty videos !!! Good luck ! 😌😉
GREAT COLLECTION!!! Thanks for posting this. Would love to see more of your fossils.
Earth sciences make me feel so small, in a comforting kindof way. "Life finds a way" and all that.
Very, very beautiful collection ❤☺️👍
Emmaroooooooooooooooooooooo! Now you have all this time free, you can sort your cabinets out! Extra long vlog maybe?
BeauTiFuL collecTion' I have a RocK that is the Only 1 on thePlaneT and it is IRRITATING that I have to listen to Other RKS saying my RocK is PainTed when it is Unique .................................
I'd love to know where you got your cabinets from? They are perfect for a mineral collection!!
They are brilliant! I got them from Aldi a long time ago unfortunately 😅
this is amazing!! I'm currently a geology student and I'm planning on making a video like this, but your collection is so big it's so cool!!
Aww thank you so much 🦕 that will be awesome! I'll keep an eye out for it 😍👀
I loved your collection, it's so full of stories :)
Why don't you build a shadow box to house the small little shells and fossils you have?

Fantastic collection! Where do you usually search for these lovely rocks?
Thank you so much! I collect wherever possible 😁 but my favourite place at the moment is the Jurassic Coast!
Totally cool,,, move collecting rocks minerals, and fossils, here in New Mexico, Rock heaven, amazing stuff.
well done.. i give you one suggesiton.. put that Aloe vera in direct Sun ,, it needs sun.. :)
I moved it soon after I filmed this video ❤️ it's been loving the recent sun 😍🙌 thank you though! (I do have a tendency to kill plants 😅)
cal said o knee....
but hey, I found out when I was 25 that it wasn't pronounced moly-b-denim... turns out folks had just assumed I was being funny....
That is the trouble, with mineral collecting, they seem to breed, very nice collection
Oh my gosh, I've just discovered your channel and I love every bit of it! Amazing collection as well

Ah, retrospective cataloguing. A job that takes forever, and there is always the risk of being distracted by old friends.
Don't know if you ever found out about the shell near 12:30 but I think it's a wentle trap...

wow, i am also a collector of stones.. fr0m ph[lippines..
damn this collection got me ROCK hard... I love rocks.....
Just found your channel and I'm so glad that I did. I run a rockhounding channel finding Agates and Petrified Wood, so It's always nice to stumble across a new UA-camr mineral junkie! You've got a very nice collection.
Nice collection and display.👍🦕🐚🐚🦖😊
Hi. Just wondering if you had any ideas on how to display polished gemstones with their names in a box frame? Thanks.
I love your videos. I've only just discovered you. Have you considered getting a rock tumbler?
Beautiful collection! Anything from Whitby?
Sand Tiger shark. Depending on the age of the formation you got it from and details of the teeth would help determine the genus.
Wow I wish I could precious stones and crystals like this.
Loved the vid dude, what a great collection , you’ve inspired me to display more of my ever mounting collection of shells, rocks , minerals and metal detecting finds , I’ve subscribed, I’ve got many strange rocks that look like heads and faces too, I’m amazed your as crazy as me , brilliant 💀😎🌴👍
Do you have any fushsite or blue apatite? Becaus I just found some a couple months ago.

You have an amazing collection, Em! Thanks for sharing your shelves and your passion for rocks etc.
I have a rock collection and I have some cool rocks and I just found ur channel and I love it. I hope you have a good day today
did someone build the cabinets for you? or did you buy them somewhere? would love to have some like them!
Do you have trilobites ? Please make a video. They are like a slim sea worm, eyes with many lens, and some have horns.
That was so adorable how you pronounced Chalcedony 💚
I love the way you pronounce it, but the correct pronunciation is Cal-Said-Uh-Knee
Can you tell me about the shelves you have. I'd like to get them for my geologist daughter
Thank you for sharing what beautiful specimens and the shelfs are super nice as well.
Great collection Emma I tried to uploads my pine cone for you from your previous video and also the megalodons tooth but unable to do so by UA-cam loving lockdown only way it could be any better is if it was with you x
Enjoyed your collection and your beautiful self.
I'm subbing how haven't I found this channel
สวยมากทุกอย่าง.ในตู้.และนอกตุ้.สวยมากใม่แตกต่างจากเครื่องประดัฎ..ทักทาย.

Good gosh I love rocks and I have a big purple crystal
So that's why people are lookin at rocks and minerals collection
The rocks with faces made me LOL 😆 ! Just what I needed to brighten my day while in “lock down”, thanks ! 😃👍
I love the specimens.....and the hair!
Question what is a good place to find cool looking rocks or minirals
Is there a simple way to tell if a rock contains uranium?
Do you have a PO Box
Not currently, but I'm planning on getting one around December :)
I love your shelving cabinets!!!
Lara Croft after destroying a 100,000 year old tomb
No way I just put 200 rocks in my pockets and found this video
Emma: I would organize your collection in the following way: (1) rocks and minerals by type: sedimentary, igneous or metamorphic. (2) shells: gastropods, pelecypods, echinoderms, etc. (3) fossils: vertebrate, invertebrate (subcategories cephalopods, pelecypods, gastropods, echinoderms, etc.), plant, and other. Organized in this way it would be much easier to locate specimens. Also, I like your idea of thinning out the collection. You really do have a lovely collection of specimens!! I envy your cabinets!!!!!
Thank you 🥰 I think I will organise it like that! 🙌 I've got to build another cabinet first 😉🤞
friend me on facebook ill show you Illinois fossils.
Beautiful and well-sorted collection. Great job. :)
The face rock at 16:56 looks like a storm trooper from star wars.
Hank moment! love your collection
great collection but your hair is to die for here 😱
I have a question, could you tell me where you identify your rocks? I love rocks and minerals and would love to start a career of it!
A mixture of books mainly 😊 you can use the key features of the rock or mineral in question to identify what it could be!
You are beautiful similar to your collection
I'm pretty sure the small white shell is a wentletrap.
I found a rock that just didn't look right ,I hit it with a hammer and it had something that looks like glass. What is it? Help
There are a few minerals which have a glassy appearance - a common one is Quartz 😊 I'd need to see the specimen to clarify ❤️
Chalcedony - Cal-said-a-knee.
Takes me back to my adolescents of rock collecting
What is wrong with your aloe vera?
Am already loving it❤️🍏
Someone ya know steal your mineral?
Hello pretty good evening for you
Do you have any smokey quartz
Nice channels how are you?
Your poor aloe looks like it’s been socially distanced from the sun 😬
hahaha It was given to me in this state...I'm working on it lol
Are you selling or trading
I would really like a video about mineral, rocks, etc. names;)🍃
Hahah 😂
Nice collection
You or your gym yourself 🔮💎💜💚
I have a quartz
