    Watching this reminds me of my father-n-law who passed a few years ago. he would find truck loads of these rocks and sell them for next to nothing to someone from OK. He once had one that weighed in well over 200lbs. He loved the hunt for shiny rocks and didn't do it for the money but if your pricing is anywhere close to accurate he was truly getting ripped off. Thanks for bringing back good memories of a great man.

      Ikr, im very young (11-12) age group and i belive in crystals. My mom says i am too young to belive in anything. So we went on vactaion 4 days aho and i found crystals in the woods and she was like "oh this is quartz this is amethyst" and she pointed out a FRICKING GEODE AND ALSO PROCEEDS TO TELL ME IM TOO YOUNG TO BELIVE IN CRYSTALS.

    I am fascinated by the way those crystals are found right on the surface. I have never seen any crystals here in the UK and I used to walk and explore a lot when I could walk. I have seen plenty of flint but live in a gravel and sand area, no rocks. Now I watch your videos and I love what you find. Thank you for showing me the wonders of what can be found. Take care my friend, and good luck Mary-Ellen UK

      @consideringorthodoxy5495 2 роки тому

      @@michaelblackwell7408 yeah. That’s a good place to find them. But growing up in Missouri, you see them all over the place, so my mind just sorta sees it as another rock. That being said, I’m a jeweler so my eye is more caught on slightly larger facetable stones with some color or brilliance. So even though this stuff is awesome for a lot of rock hounds and gem collectors, when I see it it’s just a little disappointing and a reminder that the geology of my home state just doesn’t have the fun stuff I like. :(. The woods look awesome a couple years after prescribed fires and tree thinning though. Amazing hill savannas.

I believe the value of this type of material will probably double to triple over the next 10 or so years. I found a piece of this stuff as a kid in a parking lot and thought it was a once in a lifetime find lol. It’s less than a 2 hour drive for me to collect this stuff. Most of my life I had NO idea how abundant it was! Also love the variety of crystals! I’m hoping to find one that’s reddish from hematite inclusions. I’ve found a couple tiny pieces but a big one would be killer! Much love Bryan TY!
