Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 лют 2025
- Welcome to the second installment of the Ultimate Crystal Digging Guide! Join me on this crystal mining adventure as I go digging for clear quartz crystals at the Ron Coleman Crystal Mine.
Ron Coleman Mining is located in Jessieville in Arkansas. This is one of the largest mines in Arkansas. Massive clear quartz crystals of high quality are found here.
Mine tailings are brought up regularly for the public to find their own crystals. This is one of many mines that you can visit and unearth your own gems. Please check out my other videos to see more locations for crystal digging.
❗We now have a physical store location in Mount Ida, Arkansas.❗
We are located at 671 Owley Road, which is on the way to many of the Crystal Mines. We would love to have you visit us, meet in person and share crystal mining tips and information.
We offer a large inventory of hand-mined local Clear Quartz and we also have crystals and minerals from all over the world for sale. Additionally, we have beautiful hand-made art, local honey and other goods available for purchase. Please check our Google Maps listing for current opening times. In addition to our crystal shop on site, we are developing the property to be an organic Permaculture farm, events center and nature sanctuary.

I went to Arkansas for the first time from Indiana last week and went to Diamond Crater. Now after seeing your videos, I am already heading back again! Headed to this mine this time, thanks for the videos! You make me want to move down there.
My pleasure! Good luck on your digs 🤙
I went to both that you suggested the free one first I collected big bucket full. Thanks for your info Am 66 yrs old I climb that long mi upbut I was happy when I got there.thak u.Scott. I'm going again tomorrow.
.
That’s great! It’s a beautiful spot for sure. Hope you have a great day of collecting again.
We saw your video a while back and we came al the way from Illinois to the Ron Coleman mine .and yesterday as we came back to buy some of the rock they sell there we saw you at the front desk, we didnt recognized you until we pulled away .but when we discovered who you were we were so excited
Going in a week and super excited! I hope our dig is as good as yours!!
Well done video buddy ... expecting more for the future :)
Thank you! More to come very soon.
Looks like a fun and easy place to dig! Nice finds.
All fake.
So nice to see you & Brian together 👍. I follow both your channels. Love ❤️ ❤️ your videos
We just got to see each other, there will hopefully be more videos together.
Some tips:
Use a spray bottle filled with water to see how the crystal will look an to get a sneak peak on how big the crystal actually is
You can wear thick garden cloves to prevent your hands from getting filthy
Gosh that’s amazing! I would love to go sometime.❤ Thank you for sharing this
My pleasure! Good luck on your mining adventures 🙏💛
Hi from Wales 🏴, loving the vids 😍😍

Happy birthday month, Pat! 🌸
Can’t wait to go to Arkansas, do you kick it out there for the most part??? We know a lot of good national forest spots to dig tourmaline, aquamarine, amethyst & what not... I’d love to see a mountain episode
Yes I live here! Let’s go on a dig together when you make it down 🙏
We talked to twin creek about a pocket dig, fun to shoot. I’m new to UA-cam. But yeah that would be awesome I see you on Brian’s channel & that camping couples
What a great idea, I would like to find these beautiful crystals in Menorca here where I live in Mahon.
Awesome wow I can't say more then that thank you for sharing 💎
😊💛💫
yeah... knew him in youtube crystal colector.. nice both of you
I have been watching as many rockhounding/mining various mi
Cheers from Colorado! Love the exciting videos!
Cheers! So happy you are enjoying my videos! 😊
Ready for this trip
Let’s do it! 😁✨💎
@@CrystalsofArkansas alot wanted to go n they can't wait
I’m looking forward to the next one!
I don't know if you still watch for comments on your older videos. I wanted to know your suggestion for the best time of year to muck around in the wet clay? I am from the Northwest, so when it's super hot here (and dry) the only I like to do is be closer to the AC. Arkansas is more humid but I would suffer it over and over for a chance to find crystals like you did in this video!
Early spring or fall is best 🤙
Would love to come to do this!!!
So is this different than the tourist digging sight? Ive seen so many different videos of the same mine but they all look different, some people are in like a field and find nothing and then theres vids like this that make it hard to believe no one finds anything :O
I live near this mine. The owners harvest the best stuff first and then bring the remaining up for the public to dig through. Everyone usually finds something, but usually small crystal points and pieces. Never heard of not finding anything.
@@jackiesmith2801 thanks for the reply! I actually went with my fiance this last week. A lady found a huge point! We found a buckets worth of points and very clear pieces. Was so worth it!!
@@K3L53YYY Cool!
beautiful. I love my crystals from Arkansas Ron Coleman mines. super clear just gorgeous . I couldnt find any in your Etsy shop ??
Thanks for your support! 🙏
There will be a big shop update in July. Please stay tuned for that.
Hi Mystical Light, Please check my shop at crystalvallyfarm.etsy.com. My crystals are from the Coleman Mine. I have a beautiful large point with a rainbow inclusion. We will be stocking a lot in about a week or two, as they are currently soaking in the cleaning solution. Thanks!
Pretty sure I saw you at Wegner around April 1-3. You were driving a pickup truck, was pouring rain so we were the only people there in the morning. Lemme know if it was you!
Yes that was probably me! 😊
Que homem lindo! Uau!
Amo Rochas. 😍😍😍😍
Obrigada 😊❤️
thank u brother for talkin 2 me an my family
It was great to meet you all. Keep on rockin!
yay 2 of my faves!
😊
Interesting! We do not have such concept of mines open for public for exploring in my country.
How valuable are those crystals that you found in such a large quantity??
About three fifty.
I’ve been there it was amazing
Oh wow
We visited this mine and found a wonderful bunch of crystals - points and plates. Hunting was really easy! Friendly people, great collecting! What more could you ask for?
You like to play in the mud more than me 😂
Yo bro bro, you scored some very nice finds there. I Love your videos! Is it free to dig, search and take crystals from the tailings sections of that mine? And, how much does it cost to dig in the main mine where the veins are, and is there a limit? I'm thinking that I'd like to take my family there someday for a family outting / working vacation. Lastly, my family and I are African American and we all have dreadlocks (yes my friend, I see that you're grandly rock'in yours 🙃☺), what's the vibe there, do you image that we'll be safe there? It's so very cool that you ran into The Crystal Collector while you were there.
Hey brother,
Thanks for watching and I am glad you are enjoying the videos!
The tailings is currently $20 for the day, the actual mine is not accessible to the public.
Yes you all would be safe here! 💗
great video....I just can't believe how many crystals you found in what, one day????? If I ever went there I'm afraid I would come back with so many crystals I wouldn't know what to do with them. I would guess you try to sell them on the internet because five days of collecting would bury you in them.
Looks like you scored some nice size points! Awesome. I haven't made it out that far WEST but I am working on it. Are they open all year round?
Yes, it’s year round
I did a video on this place and caution anybody going there I think a lot of the UA-camrs either have a connection or they’re staging stuff
All my videos are the real deal and not staged. This is NOT a sponsored video.
However I went back last week and I was very surprised to find out that they have not dumped fresh piles in over three months.
I was lucky and they had dumped one load exactly the day before I went. Hopefully now they will bring up loads again every week.
Call ahead if you need more current information.
does it cost money to get in or buy the crystals you find?
New subscriber here! Loved the video! ❤️ I wish I had some crystals mines here in California but I don’t know of any.
+April Navarro
Thank you for subscribing! 🙏
There are lots of crystal deposits in California. Try googling “Pala Mines” or “Himalaya Mine”. I hope this helps and good luck!
Been there twice. Got better crystals than he is showing here. They don’t bring up the loads as often as he showed but its has been lots of fun. Nice people and if you camp, inexpensive but nothing special. Can’t wait to go back again
It’s a nice place.
Sometimes they bring up many loads, sometimes none. But always worth the money.
Going to Arkansas in a few days. I was just wondering if you have a suggestion of whether we should do the Ron Coleman or Wegner mining?
I have found beautiful crystals at each of them. If you have time, check them both out.
I need that haha I want to go
Di you have spedition for go and dig,lean?..thank you..
Coming to Arkansas to mine crystals. Only have a short time. Which mine would you recommend for the best specimens?
Fisher mountain
I like it
will you be our tour guide i have a party of 20 or more that are interested in having you show us around when we make our trip in march
Yes, that sounds great! 👌
Email me at crystalsofarkansas@gmail.com and we can arrange the details. 🙏
Do you have to pay to dig & how much if so? Do you get to keep to keep what you find?
You keep all you find. I think the current fee is $20. Refer to their website for more details.
I'll be digging in about an hour. I hope to find anything!
Adoro! 👍🏼👏🏽👏🏽❤
Those are so gorgeous! I’m jealous!! I can’t find anything like this close to me without going 200+ miles away I can’t do right now 😂 but LOVE these videos! Omg that super clear crystal 😮 do you sell any of these by chance?
Read the description saw the link sorry it’s been a long day haha my brain is half dead
“Link in description” 😄
So happy you are enjoying these videos.
Thanks for your encouragement and support!

You can pay a fee and mine all day at most places here. God bless!
Wow amazing how does it work?? What kind of registration you need to do before hand? And how do they charge??
Just show up, it’s $20 per day.
Were you there July 2,23?
No. I have not been in a while. Did you see my doppelgänger? 😆
How much does it cost to get in?
It’s $20 a person.
Do you get to keep all the crystals you find?
Yes!
Crystals of Arkansas how long do you get to stay there
crazymithicalhorsegirl 233
You can stay all day long from 8am till 4pm.
Can anyone direct me to mines we can actually dig from the rock and not just rifle through truck loads of clay dumped at a particular site. I want to actually chisel and hammer and use a pry bar like i have seen in so many of these videos. I am really having a hard time finding something like that. There is mention of paying for a private “sweet spot” at a crystal mine but nowhere mentioned the price for that. Any insight or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. This is a girls trip with our kids and would love for this to become a tradition for us. Thank you everyone for your help.
Twin Creek Mine or Wegners Forest Mine have opportunities for hard rock mining. Be sure to bring the appropriate tools.
Crystals of Arkansas
Thank you so much for your reply. This is a huge help.
incrível. maravilhoso
Muito Obrigado 💫
Can we take their crystals?
This mine is niiice. 15 hours from me. I'm in PA
Can tourists can go there? Or not?
Yes it is open to the public.
Queria está aí te ajudando .
💎👏🏽👏🏽💗💗💗💗💗💗
Do you sell any of the crystals??
Yes, www.crystalsofarkansas.com
Website update coming very soon
I want one🖤🖤
What exactly do you do with these crystals?
Can you keep them
My two favorite crystal collectors. Such cuties. Really not flirting, it's a fact. :-)
😊 Thank you
I went there in 2015, they didn't dump any fresh dirt for us :( lol
What are they used for
Nowadays mostly just for decorations.
Synthetic quartz is still used for computer chips, clocks and other high precision equipment.
Is it just me, or does anyone else think he looks a little similar to pewdiepie?
Haha, I’ll take it. Maybe that will help me to get to 60 million subscribers also...🤞😁
Edit: 100 million subscribers 🙌
Our own Pewdiepie of Crystals is what I've been calling him. ;-) You definitely beat me to it.

I like your channel but unfortunately I went there and either your channel was staged there or you knew somebody and they hooked up good dirt but I found nothing amazing and they never brought up fresh dirt
Thanks a bunch!
All my videos are the real deal and not staged.
However I went back last week and I was very surprised to find out that they have not dumped fresh piles in over three months.
I was lucky and they had dumped one load exactly the day before I went. Hopefully now they will bring up loads again every week.
So I understand your experience. Fresh loads do make all the difference.
We’re going for our honeymoon next year
That’s awesome! Best of luck!
