The miners from here have sustained the mine of the mineral sales not commercial minerals but have struggled due to poor exposure. A lot of the money also comes from massive sales of fluorescent ore like the recent 100tons of ore purchase from the guy in Las Vegas

    My STARS those are some gorgeous specimens!!!! Not only fiery, not only glittery, but absolutely iridescent! Perfection! But there's no WAY I could go that deep down in the earth. I give you a lot of credit. I don't tend to have claustrophobia, but going deep into the earth like that would make me very nervous! Thanks for sharing this! I am still gobsmacked at how gorgeous these are!

    Awesome video as always!! Thanks for sharing! All the totally beautiful crystals, petrified wood, jasper, etc...you show us where, when, how to find and dig them . Your videos make an old rockhounds dreams come true! My knees are worn out or I would be right there digging with you. Wish I had visited these places when I was younger and could walk and climb all day, but didn't have the time then. Now that I have plenty of time on my hands, I don't have the money and no one else understands my love of digging in the dirt and collecting rocks so would have to go alone. At 63 yrs. old that's not smart. But at least I can go with you thru your videos. Thanks again.. ✌️❤ HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!

      @SpiritualNerdGems 2 роки тому +1

      If you come across a world class piece you can purchase it from them for an insanely good price but they can't afford to let those go for free at the low price they charge to mine. They are very generous though and will let you keep anything as long as it's not the very best stuff, but even then will be generous with selling it since you found it. I think it's very worth it to go and a group of fun people.

    • @TheCrystalCollector
      @TheCrystalCollector  2 роки тому +1
