    Those nodules turned out much prettier than I thought they would be! They were all pretty cool and only a couple were kind of duds! The banding in these was really surprising! They were really cool! The orange stilbite in the center of some of those was wild! I've never seen orange stilbite before! Awesome! Thank you Jason for sharing these with us! You guys have the coolest rocks and minerals in Nova Scotia! ❤

    I live in Nova Scotia. My gravel driveway is made up of granite (I think) plus quartz etc. Every now and then a quartz rock will catch my eye. Sure some are "fools gold" but others appear real. They don't rust , haze over or lose their shine when soaked in vinegar, so I think they are actually gold deposits. As you likely know NS has many gold deposits. The larger rock you cut looked like gold until I enlarged the picture (too bad) but some will look great polished.

    Hi, love all your videos and watch them all. Can anyone tell me what New Brunswick Agates look like? Do they look the same? I just don’t know what to look for. I have lots of those rocks that look like Potato Skin and I think they are a different type of jasper (waiting to get a saw) a found lots of butterscotch chert, black chert, even red chert. Apparently all this is from the ballast from ships. I have some other really cool rocks that I’m not sure what they are, I just new to this…only a couple of weeks, lol please help, lol

    • @RockhoundingLife

    I have been watching your videos for a while now. I enjoy them a good deal. That said, everytime I watch you using the saw to cut the stones, I wonder why you don't have some protection for your fingers. Hopefully you wear some sort of eye protection but the fingers?

    • @RockhoundingLife

      I wear safety goggles, ear muffs and a mask. My fingers are perfectly safe. Watch this video to see why.
