  • Early spring this year in southern Ontario. Let's take a look at public site called Titanite Hill (aka Gibson Road) to see what we can find and if the crystal collecting season can now start.

    I have learned a lot from you over the years, and I thank you. Every time you put the dog in the videos, it always makes me smile. Keep up the good work.

    Could you make a tutorial on how to extract quartz from granite? I right now have a few rocks of granite I’m laying on right now, and there is exposed quartz. I’m really trying to find an acid that won’t dissolve quartz but will dissolve any other rock.

    • @meMiner
      @meMiner  6 місяців тому

      Nothing that I know but maybe you could google mineral solubility table to see what minerals are affected or not affected by different acids

    Hiya Greg, awesome video and it's great too see your out and about..... you had a great parking spot, and Shelby was having a great time too. Hey I didn't see any skeeters surrounding you either. Can't wait to see the next video when you find some better clusters of beautiful stones.
    I hope you have a awesome blessed day and Shelby too.
    Cya! 😺🐟 out!

    Very happy to see you back. Because our winter lasts about 36 to 48 hours, I forget that you have long, cold winters that keep you out of the field. .

      It was a mild winter here this year but reminded us that it is still around yesterday. Temp dropped to -8C with snow (whiteout conditions on the roads) and high 60 K winds.

    Wonderful! Great finds. Thank you for sharing with us! That last one, I would want to coat in a clear coat. Keep it wet looking. Gotta get you a little foam cut to put into a mayonnaise jar with water so you can shake clean check.

    Hi! From the Ottawa Valley! Is it easier to explore on a sunny day or overcast?

    • @meMiner
      @meMiner  Місяць тому

      Either is fine. Sometimes more comfortable if the sun isn't pounding down on you but in this location there are trees to help with that. Better to go when there has been a few days of dry weather so it isn't so muddy

    Wow! Gorgeous! I love Shelby-she reminds me of my black lab mix I had for 18 years! I also love the way you talk. Very pleasant tone. Thank you for sharing your adventures! ❤
    PS: The geology up there is amazing!
    Also also, did you know ground up apatite was used as paint on the Chinese Terracotta army?

    • @meMiner
      @meMiner  6 місяців тому +1

      18 years for a lab is exceptional. I lost Daisy recently and she was 13. I didn't know that about apatite. I think here it was harvested for potassium for fertilizer, but they stopped doing that when caves with bat poop was cheaper.

    • @mria621
      @mria621 6 місяців тому

      @@meMiner I’m so sorry for Daisy! I lost a boxer/mastiff mix and a golden within a year of each other within the past 3 years-just 10 and 11 years old! Mica (lab mix was talking about earlier) had some hound or something in her, so I think that helped her longevity.
