Happy New Year Brian!! Beautiful Geodes with great druzy quarts action. Reminds me of snowy ice. Just beautiful!!
hi, please tell us which flashlight is better for searching yoperlites
I live in LA and have ALWAYS wanted to go geode hunting. If I vaca to Missouri how do I meet you? Do you ever take people with you on a hunt?
Looks like the geodes found in south central KY. Are they fluorescent?
I live in Missouri and have no fing idea what river that could be
Wow, he has all those crystals and a dog that looks like the cutest soft-toy ever? This man is living the fairy tale life!
That dog looks like a EWOK or Gremlin or something so cool!!
Location? I’m from Missouri!
Wow that's is so much crystals 😅
me: depressed
youtube: you wanna look at some cool rocks and a guy excited about em?
me:......yes plz
Ugh SAME!! Lmaoo
That’s awesome 💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💜💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎🙌💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💯💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💥
Check your area for some digging, there are rocks all over 💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💯💯
Reading my mind.
I know this was a year ago but I wanted to ask if you're doing better. Depresso ain't fun.
I'm so thankful to you guys for keeping it clean so that I can share your videos in public school! I teach 4th graders in California, but have fond memories of my Virginian dad finding geodes and doing lapidary work. He's gone now, but your videos enable me to share the joy and excitement with my 29 little Californians. They were so impressed, and your enthusiasm really is infectious. Thank you so much!
He is a character ,take care.
@@markdemell3717 ok? Who cares if he’s a character or not?
@@rachael6855 i think they meant it as a compliment.. If you say that someone 'sure is a character', you might mean that they are interesting, unusual, or amusing :)
Awesome! Glad to see your father had such an amazing effect on your becoming a teacher! Thank you for that by the way!!! Hope your still teaching, and your students are doing well! God bless!!!
geodes teach us not to judge a book by its cover
Well...sorry to break it for you...but that is what covers are for. So you can judge the book before/without reading it.
@@jurgenschutte5511 ikr like why tf is it an expression like it's the point of a cover
@@jurgenschutte5511 well you wont ever know then how good a book actually is, since you havent read it, you just judged it.
@@exaroc571 Its impression, not judging
@@exaroc571 it really isnt, u wouldnt read something if it isnt your preference. from personal experience i only read books that are gorey and stuff and i absolutely despise all the other books that are from a different topic, which is why i always judge from a cover. I have attempted the real life romance etc books but oh god are they boring.
I like that this guys is just as amazed with every geode he opens 😂
Well they are beautiful
Geodes are unique ,every one is different .
I’m so jealous. That is so awesome. You’re livin’ my dream.
This is like an adult version of egg surprise 🤣
(Edit: guys I think u misread my 'adult' for something else...I simply meant grown ups okay... haha..thanks for liking anyways)
Delete this fam.
@@Questchaun 😂
what the ??
So true 🧡
I have those same bedsheets at home
Precious little dog
Hey Brother! You are hilarious and full of good vibes!!! Keep those crystals coming! 👍
Matrix is good little doggy
Oh sooo beautiful geodes !!!...Matrix with the grrr...first time I've ever heard him growl...🐕...Rock 💎 on Brian...🙏💜
Yeah he was growling at Rock Hamm Rob, LOL
“Whaaaaaaaaaat!?!” Loving the geodes! Loving the genuine enthusiasm! Loving Matrix(star of the show)!!!
Geodes are so fun!
Matrix is the best!!!
It has been years since I collected geodes from Keokuk Iowa. I am loving your collection. Matrix is a star🐶🌟🌠
Your puppy is a Lucky Dog surrounded by all that earth love and your great energy as well. Thank you again for sharing your fabulous easter egg hunt with us! 💜
I love breaking open geodes! This guy is living a dream!!
I think geode opening is going to be my new thing to obsess over 😍 they are so beautiful.
I can just see you saying to yourself how many of these can fit in the canoe before it sinks with me in it. Thanks for all the great reveals, I love seeing geodes cracked open, especially when you cut them nice and clean.
I love it! Prospecting, Rock hounding, tumbling/ polishing, and crack'n geodes never gets old! Awesome video.
now i have another obsession. i won't stop until i find one
Really glad I found your videos. I'm learning a lot. My 3yo grandson is watching with me, it is my responsibility to teach him safety and responsibility, however it would be nice if The Rock Collector would give a word or 2 for the kids out there to not hammer rocks in their hands. I admit he will be able to do this at some point in his life. The demonstrator is very experienced and skilled, obviously knows what he is doing, no criticism form me about his technique, just a request to give the kids a word of caution, please. Thank you for sharing your work.
It’s nice to see Freddy Kruger enjoying his retirement
??? i dont get it
What a bad joke kid
@@Erik-pk6nf not the only one.. this kids is just hating he ain't getting somewhere in his life like this man
haha
@@hanma101 is he making fun of the guy for his look?
It's nice to see someone enjoying their passion so much!
I like him. used to find arrowheads and fossils as a kid. Should start looking again.
Yes, looking for arrowheads is fun stuff too, I’m hoping to get out for that more myself
They are gorgeous, each one gives you a lovely surprise when cracked open. It was great to see the difference in each geode, I remember the video of you collecting them and it was great fun watching you opening them Bryan. Take care my friend and good luck Mary-Ellen UK
Yes it was pretty amazing, I was really surprised on a couple of them, the big one which I just knew was gonna be hollow or solid but it was still fun!
@@TheCrystalCollector I can understand your feelings as I think a few of us felt the same way lol. Matrix was quite interested in them and he likes crystals too bless him. Good luck my friend Mary-Ellen UK
Beautiful! I love how enthusiastic you are about them!
🙌💎💜
This looked like so much fun!!!!! I'm just blown away by all the beauty nature has to offer........it never disappoints!!!!! CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE NEXT SERIES OF VIDEOS.........WOOT!!!! : )
I love this! It must be amazing just being able to go and find geodes, I was in awe seeing them all on the ground haha. Also Matrix is so cute!
Yes Brian you put those 👓 glasses on because we don't want nothing to happen to you. Happy New Year my friend!
That first one you put through the saw would make beautiful bookends!😍
Your dog is adorable. You can tell yous all love your life. This brightened up my morning, thank you ☺️
Love the video Bryan. Those are some wonderful geodes. Hopefully you’ll have some of those beautiful pieces for sale. Looking forward to the Purple Heart mine videos coming!
Thayne Gunther if you do not get a chance contact me through messenger I have lots for sale Rockhound Rob fb amazing Keokuk geode page fb
Sent you a request via Facebook Rockhound Rob
Love your energy and passion! I am a nerd about certain things and rocks are one of them. Liked.
Yeah me too, it’s so cool to see all the different formations
Am I the only one that saw the giant spider hiding inside the geode that Brian picked up at 3:56? 🕷 Glad that thing didn’t jump out and bite you Brian!
I’m always looking for your videos. I love minerals. Those geodes were gorgeous. And of course Matrix was adorably cute in his warm place. ❤️😊👍🏻
Hey my friend Happy New Year
Happy new year!
I live in Missouri.. but i haven't been able to go where i can find them at a river.. near me someone sells some smaller ones at a flea market... and ive cracked open several... love them!
Thank you so much for sharing your video . I am a big geode hunter and collector myself as well other gem stones . Plus I am a huge arrowhead hunter . I'm 73 years young and have been a rock hound since I was 5 years old and it is keeping me young . My late father in law was a president of several rock clubs in the Atlanta area and we shared many stories and rock hunts . Thanks again and Happy Trails 👣 😊
This man looks exactly like LS George and does just as fantastic work!
The one in the intro and when you said it didn’t even looked cracked but it came in two pieces. I couldn’t help but notice it was shaped so much like a skull.
Love the geode video!
Thank you for this great video. I love opening geodes and agates, it feels like opening a gift from Mother Nature.
Wonderful finds👍
Oohhh…awe…..so beautiful! How exciting to open and see what beauty nature has made!!! I love it.
I know that river ha and I already had plans to go there this summer. I haven't been into geology since I was a kid. and plan on checking it out again. when you explore the world you explore your mind
watching this dude's face after he sees each geode makes me happy
I’m new to Nevada and new to rock hunting. Not only do you know your stuff but, you are so entertaining and I really appreciate how you didn’t get upset when you crack something open and it’s solid👌 instead of a hollow one! I’ll be watching for more thanks!
OMG Matrix is so adorable. And you are such a sweet daddy to him. Love the crystal too!!
This is so awesome! Such a fun surprise to see what's inside each time. How do you decide whether to cut it open or to crack it open?
I bought my first geode yesterday, When I grow I want to dig up my own, but I need to go to America 😁
It might not be any left looks like he's the Geo hog hahaha
If you come to the US plan a stop at Keokuk, Iowa. They are world renowned for their beauty. Hope you find a million and one. 😁
There's crystals all over the world
In what locations would you find these types of stones ???
@@ASMRyouVEGANyet I wish unfortunately in Toronto Ontario Canada you wouldn't find anything like this not until you got out west to BC and Edmonton British Columbia Canada 🤘😁👍
How cool to split something that's this old and see beautiful things inside!
I so enjoy all the information you share about crystals ❤️😊✌🏻
PLEASE tell me where you find these. I just got into rock collecting and want to crack open some geodes. Your channel rocks! (Da dun shh)
😂😂
I know that wild geodes are formed near volcanoes and I think you can buy ones at rock stores or some stores and I also want to add some to my rock collection
Someone who replied said they’re found next to volcanoes, but that’s only true for some places. I live in Indiana, and most are found slightly underground, in riverbeds, and creek beds. Usually in limestone rocks.
@@colincrowe4851 or if ur a construction worker and h have to lay foundation u may find stuff rocks If lucky
I have those purple and pink
i hate to break it to you but unless they are amethyst your geodes are probably painted
an 8th dimentional being yeah or died
paul austin well not necessarily, most types of quartz can be found in geode form and amethyst is a purple to pink variety. also smokey quartz can be found in geode form and very rarely rose quartz in geode form
So?
sharp pye i corrected someone who had incorrect information in a kind way
That was pretty cool. Looked like a fun little adventure. 😎✌️
I love Matrix. He's like a big teddy bear. Love all your videos too. Keep'em coming.
2:27 I can see a tiny heart shaped crystal in the middle.
Bless you Goon Soldier
Never stop fighting the good fight
hi there when i grow up i wanna become a crystal miner like you
Geodes are always amazing. Thanks for the trip. 💖🦅🦅
It’s like Christmas morning opening presents. I am excited
I love seeing geodes and you got really nice ones there.
I'm just wondering can you find geodes anywhere in the world as I'm in Ireland and I'm a prospector the last dig we were on I came home with a 15 lb quartz rock covered in crystals and just wondering would I find geodes in the same area. From Irish Andy.
such gorgeous pieces!🤩
Please tell Rock Hound Rob not to forget about me!! Thanks for the cool video, and passing on the message! Paris
I could hunt for those ALL DAY!!!! What a great hunt and find. As a child I used to dig up our yard for stones. Love them.
The jealousy in my soul after seeing so many geodes in one spot 😭
Your geodes are amazing! I know you sell on eBay, but have you sold any of your geodes? They're stunning! 😍😍
Whaaaaat!? Lol those are awesome. We watched your video on cleaning quartz crystals with iron out and man, it did a great job on them. Thanks!
Cute little doggies and pretty rocks... my 2 favorite things
Would love to see your personal collection. Is EBay the only spot to buy from you? Do you come to California?
I just love Matrix. And geodes. This kinda ticks all the boxes.
Great video! Those geodes are spectacular!!
THAT DOG IS EVERYTHING
I'm from St. Louis. ;-)
"Wild geodes are often hunted for their edible crystals. The hunter sets out a geode trap, typically a pitfall of some sort, and baits it with the geode's preferred food source of mineral slurry. Once the geode is captured it is harvested by being split in half, after which the delectable crystals are scooped out and consumed raw. Many tools exist for geode harvesting, from basic hammers to special chain-type leverage splitters. The taste and flavor of the geode is affected by the type of mineral it consumes, the water it's found in, and the age. Exporting raw geode flesh is the primary economic device of several small countires."
I love geodes!! What a treat to see on my birthday
The geodes are amazing in each one you have got a beautiful surprise!
swear every time he opens one he says “WOAH WOW”
enjoyed watching its a pitty the big one was solid i reckon if you cut the sides off make a excellent massive dice even let water sit in some of the other hollow ones and drink it would have to be some benifits there thanks for sharing love peace and harmony happiness to you and all safe healthy journeys infinity
Yeah I really thought it was going to be hollow, but you’re always going to get those, it was tough caring it out of the creek, LOL
Sweet little doggie named Matrix!!!! That is adorable 💕💕💕💕! Beautiful geodes also!! Love and Respect Tamsen Roberts in Riverside California
Thanks for hanging out! 💎🙏😊💜✨
Fun video! The one at 8:52 is a fav of mine. Love the sparkles.
I live in Missouri! Were you all on the Meramec river by any chance? I LOVE finding geodes here! They’re literally EVERYWHERE if you’re looking.
more likely The Big or Black River south of Washington Co
wow! youtube randomly recommended me this and now I'm wondering: is there a chance that I can find some of these geodes in the southernmost part of Brazil? or are these some rocky formations kinda specific to the northern US?
Brazil has some of the best stuff in the world, but I don’t know how or where are the areas or there but I know it’s there, check it out
@@TheCrystalCollector Maaan, I went on a walk with a friend and fortunately I find some of this rocks. Of course, nowhere near as beautiful as yours, and some little pieces, but I find one or two with crystals, one that seems like some different layers and some little white and transluscent crystals. I'm really excited and I'll try to find some more along the rivers in the outskirts of my city. But I came to a problem: the rocks are really dirty and grimy, how can I clean them? I tried using water and brushes, it solved the thick layer of dirt but now it is just really really grimy.
Loving your channel, I'm so happy that I found it! Cheers from Brazil!
I've always wanted to geode hunt. So cool, thanks for sharing
I’ve always loved crystals and cool rocks since I was young. Haven’t been as much since I’ve gotten older. Come to think of it I got a small little geode I’ve been wanting to crack open for years now, just haven’t gotten around to bringing it to someone. Those are some beautiful geodes *WHAaaaat*. Cute little doggie too. You just never know what is is waiting out there for you to find. Keep doing what you’re doing and keep those crystals coming! 💎🪨☺️👍🏻
Whaaaaaaat! Thanks for watching and the support ✨💯💎
Hello, thank you for showing them, in my country is realy hard to find them, could you sell one of them and how much is it?
i love them
God bless you
He reminds me of link neal 🤣 like his brother or something lol
The mega daddy post geode is the PERFECT geode🤩
I love how enthusiastic he is :))
Keep up the good work mate
What is a Matrix and where can I get one!?!?
That's like, seriously one of the cutest dogs I've ever seen.
😂 He is a cross between a Shih Tzu and a poodle, thanks for watching
Omgosh!!!! Wow!!! They’re beautiful!! Can people just go find these? How do you get to hunt for them?
I would highly recommend checking out the Geode Fest that happens once a year, it’s epic and goes to places just like this
Great video! Ur channel is awesome and Matrix is simply greatness!!! He is so happy.
VERY NICE FINDS MY FRIEND .!!!
🤜🤛😎
I wish I could find an un opened geode
Is that solid one what they use to make figurines and things with?
Not sure, but it would make some awesome slices if they were polished up
I believe you may be thinking about marble, soapstone, or alabaster- as those are usually sculptors’ go-to material for making figurines and such! Quartz would be pretty to work with, but it’s so much harder to carve into, at least by hand. Hope this info helps! ^_^
@@HSices ah ok. Thanks!
Matrix is such a cutie!
Those crystals are Amazing👍
Very Nice work man... Perfect rocks... 👏👏🙏💎
Can u tell me how you know it’s an actual geode and not just a rock? I wanna be a geologist when I grow up!
Probably when the rock is lighter than it looks or feels "hollow"
The outside looks like a brain
The shape and weight are big indicators, as well as if you tap it, it should sound hollow
Hollowness kinda just the feeling would be kinda lighter and the outside doesn’t look like a normal rock maybe kinda like a dinosaur egg😂😂
All these replies are great answers! It really is just according to the area that you’re digging them, Geode’s only form in certain areas of the world, but when they do form you can sometimes find lots!
How much is that worth .Also could I find stuff like this in Chicago area
Nah you have to get down to this area ,
Not worth much
Matrix looks very much like a miniature Wookie! So cute
So fun to watch!!! I have several geodes in my yard but I’ve never had the guts to open them.
