A North Shore Rockhounding Adventure!

Come with me as we rockhound for agates, brecciated and ootilitic jaspers, unakite, slag, and so much more! I worked my way along the north shores of Minnesota looking for some beautiful rocks and minerals. I ended up learning about a special type of “rock” and found a few samples along the way! It was a really fun adventure and it always amazing me the diversity of rocks and minerals that you find as you travel further north. It is definitely an adventure that I can’t wait to do again soon!

Great finds. Some really cool and different ones! Some super big ones too. I love all the mica schist. The jasper was such vibrant reds. And i think most of those will look good when tumbled! Thanks for sharing!

[@AgateAriel]

Thank you! It was a fun adventure with lots of unique finds! 😊

[@thepuffy6162]

Very new to rockhounding, hoping to learn some things from you! Cool finds as well.

[@AgateAriel]

Glad you’re here! Hopefully you can find my channel useful! 😊

[@mikek4443]

Very nice finds, always look forward to what you find. Your videos about searching landscaping rock was genius, I actually found some nice rocks here at work during lunches lol

[@AgateAriel]

Oh that’s awesome!! Landscaping rock can really turn out some beauties!!

[@gems2jewels]

It's always nice to go go rockhounding with you. Some interesting little finds today that might turn out to be gems once tumbled. Thanks for sharing your adventure to the lake.

[@AgateAriel]

Of course! I’m glad you liked the video! Rockhounding is so relaxing and fun 😊

[@sandmaker]

Missed ya, but you had a good reason! Love all the agates and jaspers. Thanks for sharing. Be happy, safe and stay healthy from Benson, AZ.

[@AgateAriel]

Thank you!! It has been great spending some quality time with baby girl. I’m glad to be back! 😊

[@tapwetugeye]

Hey, just found your videos and subscribed. I'm a fellow rock hound and your videos also help to calm my anxiety when I'm having an attack. So thank you for posting.

[@AgateAriel]

Wow that is such a compliment thank you so much!

[@DRMLbyJeffrey]

Nice enjoyed the video.

[@AgateAriel]

Thank you! Glad you liked it!!

[@kimdedominicis6893]

Schist is about a 4.5 and not a good candidate for the tumbler. Nice finds!

[@AgateAriel]

Oh good to know!! Thank you!

[@Kathysmilepie]

How do you store your cool finds? I have so much random bowls and Tupperware holding mine 😂

[@AgateAriel]

Great question! This is what I do-What I Do with All My Rocks and Minerals

You don't have very many days left to do that, you should get 10 or so ice cream pale full before winter sets in.

[@AgateAriel]

I know right! Soon the season will be over-it went so fast this year!

[@hosannamcbride1337]

4:15 I have one kinda like this

[@crystal_world305]

I love that you not only look for agatestone ❤❤

[@keithwatson8228]

Looks like a Robin

[@AgateAriel]

Oh it kind of does!

[@emdee7744]

How do you tell unakite from epidote? It looks the same to me.

[@AgateAriel]

Great question! Unakite is actually a mix of green epidote, pink orthoclase feldspar, and Quartz. Green epidote would specifically be only green while unakite is pink, green, and whiteish 😊

[@Videostufftas]

Very nice 😊🇦🇺

[@AgateAriel]

Thank you!!

[@michaeltrudell9356]

What is schist?

[@AgateAriel]

It’s a metamorphic rock that’s oriented into thin sheets making them shine!

[@michaeltrudell9356]

@@AgateAriel Ok. So is it classified as Chalcedony?
