It would be a very good idea not to mess with these rocks. You have no idea what you are messing with. Men's hearts will fail them from what is coming upon the earth. Your worst nightmare, will become reality. You were warned.
Old disabled house bound dusty rusty rockhound here: Wowzer! That stuff is awesome! I would love to see how it is displayed i.e. jewelry, micros, minis, uv collections, etc. I love "bonus rocks" when you go for a specific type of rock and find other co-occuring rocks at same location....BONUS!!!!! The scenery was out of this world!!! Thank you for the adventure buddy! Plus: Happy Father's Day shout out to all the men out there who nurture and support their loved ones... You Rock!
OMG!! That would be epic to be surrounded by so many fluorescing minerals at night!!! Would be SUPER EPIC if they just naturally glowed at night. Thanks for taking us along for the hunt!!

Haha, glad you did choose to go with Jon! It was fun helping him stake out that claim. I know claims are a contentious topic with many, but the benefits of an ethical claim (such as here, Jon is happy to let people collect for a fee since he excavates material and assists with the collecting as a guide). Not only do you get the benefits of a curated location, people around the world who can't possibly travel here to collect, then have access to the specimens on the market. Its potentially a good system. Every system can be abused but I stand by my friend here. Mind you I am a left-minded geologist and in general dislike the antiquated claims system as a whole.
@@akowboyshippielife7405 "Right on, thanks. I can't do tours yet until I get my tour guide permit. I just got my application and it will probably take 3-6 months to be processed. Hopefully only 3 so that I can do tours this fall. I can't charge money for it unless I have the permit, and I'm not taking that person out there for free. I'll reach out to them on UA-cam once I have the permit" There ya go
@@marywright4934 the legend is as follows, during a fight with the military, fifty penal Apache warrior's we're killed. Rather than die at the hands of the white man , they chose to jump off a cliff to their death. The women , gathered at the base of the cliff and mourned for a moon. Their sorrow was so great , they shed many years. As those years fell to the ground one by one they became what's known as the Apache Tear's. Anyone who possesses an Apache tear need not shed a single tear as the Apache women , shed Tear's enough for them too.
@TheCrystalCollector it was a pleasure meeting you at topaz mountain a few weeks ago, thank you for the conversation and crystals you gave me and my friend. Hope to meet you again one day and enjoy more conversations.
Can I please ask what type of wavelength uv do I have to get to show green. I've got a archer uv 365. It only shows light pink not bright green. Thanks for help
I have purchased some of this, and now i want to find some, the blacklight is becoming a new “metal detector” but for crystals rocks, and uranium glass!!
Crystal club house . Group trip to BRAZIL. we could prolly get a good rate on everything as a large group.. just throwing it out there! Sounds like fun to me
Hey if you are ever in the Riverside, California area I have a locality of some very nice quality tourmalinated smoky quartz and epidote that I would love to show you. This really is some beautiful material and it's hidden right in plain sight. I don't know how to contact you but I never come home empty handed. Hit me up and I'll show you some of my finds.
I know how much you like florescent minerals Brian, why don't you do a video on petroleum quartz. Not sure where in America you can find them, but I love my specimens and get a lot of comments on them when I show off my florescent collection
You are probably confusing halite with hyalite. Completely different. Halite is basically a salt crystal. Hyalite opal is a type of opal that fluoresces and has less water content than precious opal.
Private claims for mineral specimens is an “iffy” subject. Claims are based on the 1870 mining law. I’m not a lawyer, but took a public land law class many years in the past. In general, claims were created to allow for development of economically viable mines. Specimens may not be considered to have potential to be an economically viable mine, hence such claims may not be valid.
Filing a claim does not by nature make it valid. I checked - case law is McClarty vs Secretary of the Interior. A claim has to have unique properties (this does) but also has to have economic value. If he can sell these specimens, that would appear to make it economically viable. In general, I prefer that people consider rock hounding sites on public land to belong to the public. Is he planning to make collecting and selling specimens a full time job? Charging people to rock hound on his claim would, I believe , be illegal. You come from the east where everything is private - the public lands of the west are what make it great.
The mining law rules and is constantly re-regulated for fees but never removed. If you can sell it, it is a viable mineral by definition. The form of the product does not matter. Size of operation does not apply. America is full of gemstone mines that are "not industrial" but perfectly valid to work. Dont forget we pay hundreds of dollars to run the entire system for each claim yearly.
@@fredwilson3525 what law makes paid tours on a claim illegal? Just curious. Also I’d say these specimens definitely have unique properties and he does sell them for profit so the claim is fully viable. Yes, he’s a professional collector/seller full time.
Question is do we want all rock hounding sites on BLM or Forest Service lands to be claimed if they are only going to sell a hand specimen here or there? If he is truly making a mine, more power to him. As far as fees for access, the mining law does not allow restriction of public access to un-patented claims. I may be wrong on fee to dig, but I suspect BLM would say foul play. At Glass Butte in Oregon, BLM has stated that only a few older claims are valid. They may be using status as a designated recreation area to do that, and some lawyer may claim that is inconsistent with the 1870 law. However, I am glad they did that, since public lands are for public benefit, and many rock hounders having access to me is a better public use than one person trying to see if they can sell a few specimens. Again for the case at hand, I don’t know his plans or intent, I just know that less and less sites are available for public rock hounding sucks. A boundary in my mind is if a claim is not a realistic income source, then it should not be valid. It is one thing to use the law, it is another thing to do what is right.
Thanks for watching y’all! Be sure to check out the crystal clubhouse on Facebook, with that club we may be doing a meetup at this location!!
I'm in Cedar City Utah and I don't have Facebook but would love to meet up 🤠
Would love that 🙏♥️
Is the convoy the light you always use or are there multiples I've had a hard time finding the right ones I've purchased 3 now 🤷

This video really cheered me up. In fact, it was the hyalite of my day!
I'll get my coat. Sorry.
Thats great! Gonna have to use that one 😆
This joke was the hyalite of my day...whaaaaaaat! 😂 lol
Good to know. About private tours. We did that in Bingham, New Mexico 18 years ago.
I started fantasizing of having my pond decked out with these at nioght 🥰🤩👏🏼 Great inspiration ! 🥳💪🏼

Awesome. I love stuff that fluoresces. 😍 That’s a pretty sweet claim.
That's the name of the opal I was trying to think of last week!! Thanks for and awesome video!!👍👍😁
Such a magical place and great tour. I might be interested in some facet rough. Let me know if ya have anything in with full dimensions. Thanks! PC
Amazing video!! Thanks for sharing!!
If you do not know the legend of the Apache Tear's, research it. You will be amazed.
Yeah, it’s pretty interesting!!
I don't know the legend but I have one. It's beautiful and translucent

Spectacular! 😍
Really cool opal.
glad to live in utah such a beautiful state
Much love to everyone and their families from Cedar City Utah USA currently 🤠💪🙏🏵️🤠
How does one get to go there?🤠
After dark, when you shine the UV lights around, it looks like a scene from Men In Black. 😅
Nice video crystal!
Wow I’d love own some of your finds
After watching your yooperlite video I had to purchase that Petoskey stone light by convoy and its awesome , worth every penny too
I found a bunch of turritella opal over the weekend down in Cedar City. Happy hunting!
Nice!
Nice video thank you bro 🙏🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈💚💛❤️🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼
Finding them good goodies Sir.......✌️
Wow. I need to go there. I hope he begins doing hunts with people. I would definitely be interested in it one day.

I have some piece covered in what i think is limonite. What can i use to clean them?
Limonitr is very tough to get off, sometimes iron out will work, but it can take many many soaks
@@TheCrystalCollector thank you!
Whattt❤happy fathers day
I recently went to a crystal convention. Got a cool stone identified.
The orange fluorescent ground covering is Caliche. It's all over the southwest.
Yup, can confirm being as I have some from the location. The calcite glows very orange.
I love this stuff. I have a bunch of these. I wish I was with you coz I'd be freaking happy finding those😅
Amazing !!
Way awesome 🌚🌝✌️
I have purchased some of this, and now i want to find some, the blacklight is becoming a new “metal detector” but for crystals rocks, and uranium glass!!

Want some of those Apache tears❤
What happened to Apache tears being the rest of what didn't get turned to perlite by hydrothermal decay?
Crystal club house . Group trip to BRAZIL. we could prolly get a good rate on everything as a large group.. just throwing it out there! Sounds like fun to me
Yeah, that would be an epic trip!
I would mark the big ones at nice and come back to collect them during the day.
What type of light do you use
Are you not able to get a big flashlight to make it easier for yourself? Or maybe even have a special headlight you can quickly install on your car ?
Wow ❤
That is radioactive is it not
The best hyalite doesn't need a blacklight to glow, it's plenty fluorescent in the shade.
gotta love Utah and our long summer days lol
Cool man

Need a spotlight light batman so the entire mountain glows
Remember the number one word he says all the time whaaaaaaaat.
Hello you
Dose that happen naturally
It is all green. Any other colors?
I guess Bigfoot exists.
Have you ever came across any phosphorescent fluorite?
I luv watching u mine crystallllls
Cool
Looks like kryptonite. 🤟🏼
chase superman with it, i've got beef with him
I don’t think that’s opal doesn’t look like it has silica but beautiful ❤
Hello crystal collector!
Hello you
@@Daphongthuycamau hey
Berapa harganya
is hyalite opal a type of opal or is it a type of hyalite?
Hyalite is Opal & is where opal is deposited by vapor, not fluid.
You are probably confusing halite with hyalite. Completely different. Halite is basically a salt crystal. Hyalite opal is a type of opal that fluoresces and has less water content than precious opal.
Obsidian, used to be lava at one point. Quite different from basalt..
I'll be keen if like to come
Why does everyone who’s into this hobby have to look like a creature from lord of the rings?
