Hey crystal collector! why not come over to my house? i got a bunch of crystals in my room and even some of those gemstone dig kits you could steal haha
In the early 80's I did some work on a new house being built in the Cowee Valley. The backhoe digging the footings pulled out a pocket of rubies with enough gem quality material in it to pay for the cost of the house.
If you didn’t own the mineral rights on the land I personally wouldn’t be advertising it online for the actual owner to find out to come after their “stolen property rights” on the minerals. Awesome to get lucky like that and I would’ve probably done the same but protect yourself and don’t advertise crimes/possible crimes.
My Aunt and Uncle owned a Ruby mine in Franklin, NC. I used to go visit every summer. I’d go to the mine with them and pan for rubies and sapphires. We used to have jars filled with them. In Jackson County, NC, on my grandfather’s property, we used to find garnets on top of the ground. Some would be as big as golf balls. I miss those days.
I lived in Hayesville, on a mountain near Lake Chatuge years ago. We would rock hound the sunken corundum mine. Water level was extremely low that year, a drought, so we got a lot of garnets, rubies and emeralds. Thank you for sharing your video. Happy hunting!
Have never seen a video of anyone finding the huge pieces of ruby and sapphires that y'all are finding. As a rock & gem hound this is so thrilling. Thanks for sharing!🎉
Year's ago I managed a school kitchen, a fourth grade girl came into the kitchen with this huge beautiful red rock and says, "look what i found at my grandmother's house on school break last week!" Well it was more then just a rock! I asked her if she knew what a ruby or a Garnett looked like and she said no. I told her she should ask her mom to take her to a jeweler in town that I know and ask him to look at it. It turned out to be a 3lb ruby she was carrying around in her backpack!
I grew up in northern Iredell county and worked in Alexander county in hiddenite at the emrald hallow mine. Mike and Dottie are the best! If you ever get around that area stop by
As a couple other people below noted, those two around the 4:00 to 5:00 mark may have quartz coloration (or lack thereof), but the shapes definitely look a bit more like sapphire than tessin floaters. Have them tested if you haven't already. Anyway, looks like a fun place to dig. Thanks for all the great videos!
I have a beautiful property on Pinch Gut Creek just a stone's throw from Propst. The recent rains and this wet spring have blessed me with so many beautiful crystals, lil crystal clusters and lots of gorgeous bloodstones, my personal favorite. I'm in love with the mix of greens and reds they are popping! I have multiple tumblers running 24/7, I'm rockhounding every weekend now the weather has turned and it's into the high 80s. Hubby can't keep me out of the water! I'm almost ignoring the quartz crystals now in favor of the beautiful bloodstones, I'm sure you would be mad at me 🤣🤣🤣. Keep at it guys, there are so many beauties to be found in this area! Nice finds guys!
Hi Bryan, what an outstanding purchase, a property loaded with Ruby, Sapphire & quartz crystals. Outstanding. Once again a video I couldn’t stop watching. 👍
why don't you have a bucket of water and an old toothbrush by your side to wash stuff off? Then it's easier to see. You could also design some sort of a cover or portable tent or something so that you can block the sunlight and use an high-power UV light so you can easily spot the UV-reactive ones. I love your videos, keep making great content!
Old disabled house bound dusty rusty rockhound here: I love Ruby Mountain in Colorado! Have fun! Tell the mountain..."Kelly said' you're in her heart'!"
I seen you and your camper on highway 61 south of dubuque iowa(thinking last summer). One day. To bad we couldn't have met and had a chat about crystals and other gemstones. Really enjoy your videos. Keep up the fun work.
Those people apparently have a corundum conundrum in their backyard . What a nice mystery or problem to have. I'm not a serious or knowledgeable rockhound, but I have done it for fun. Since corundum glows under that particular light, do some people dig at night while using the light ? Looks like they'd be easier to find if you did that. Enjoyed the video. It was so inspiring I'm gonna go dig up my ex's backyard since she's out of town for a few days. No telling what or who is buried in there.😆
Can you show the cleaned de-iron-ed crystals afterceach vid. Curious aboutbthose rubies. They looked cool, but dark and rocky. Need to see shiny clean.
@@brucej.willson4764 We all know that, Bruce. He regularly soaks his quartz rocks in acid to remove the iron oxide. It wouldn’t hurt the corundum either.
@@cecilyerker You're right. I'm sorry, I thought you were one of those people who thought natural rubies come out looking like the stones they sell in stores. My apologies for the misunderstanding.
Bryan, it’s been awhile for me. So glad to see you in my feed, I’m “diggin’” this new site. So cute to hear Matrix’s 🐶 little motor-like growl disapproval 😆 1st time I’ve seen the cool graffiti art work on your RV. We used to call those “bombs” in the 80s. I might be out dating myself, but, guess we can say it’s the bomb cause you’re the bomb! 😜😂 Can’t wait to see your next adventure! Much love from SoCali! 🤗😊
Great video! Thank you SO much for taking the time to share about this place! ❤ I hope you had a great time while you were there! QUESTION---- How is their payment system set up? Do they charge you by the pound for what you take out of there, or is it set up differently? Thank you so much and God bless! ❤
So crazy, right down the road from me is Propst, great video and anymore prospecting you plan to do around here? I’m out of construction now but can still dig a good bit but have an amateur appreciation for prospecting
I live in south carolina, red clay is crazy, ive found amythest and really rich smoke quarts and rose quarts in my back yard, even found a native american arrow head a few houses down on a trail
Forgot to say some thing about the Quartz! That’s really cool! Like you said, “Well, I AM The Crystal Collector!” I thought the shape of the first one was cool. Like a dangle chandelier crystal from what I could see. ❤
Some of those would make AMAZING cabochons, some of the less clear more cracked ones would make good desk ornaments. If you find a perfect pristine crystal that has amazing clarity, there is nothing else to do really except wrap it in gold or silver and wear it as it is, or put it away somewhere. I would wear mine if I found one
Cool vid :) Can't help but think, shouldn't you just create a dark box around those rocks you separate as you are prospecting and use the flashlight to make the ones that are rubis shine? That sounds so much more efficient than trying to clean and observe each one by hand
I haven't been to Propts in years but found stuff every time I went. My best find there was a 4" long tapered one. I have seen piece's that had somewhat "gemmy" spots in them but the best one that I ever saw was found many years ago and part of an old collection that has been since handed down to a grandson of the deceased owner of the collection. This piece was found in area on the property that is not open to collecting anymore. The piece was a yellowish barrel shaped corundum about 1 1/2" in length x 3/8" in width slightly tapered crystal that was translucent in the lower half and completely transparent in the upper half. This was one of the few transparent ones that I ever saw from there. The collector who had this was very trustworthy and honest and I had no doubt of its authenticity. He had dug many Propost corundums in the early days of the site and had only found three like this. The others sold off long before and this was his only one. Another collector who I once knew was also a fixture at Propst many years ago once should me a diamond, yes diamond that he found on the property. It was supposedly way on the back of the property and again, he is deceased as well and his collection dispersed at auction some years ago. With that much corundum on the site, it isn't surprising that diamond, garnet, quartz and other minerals are there I think that most people aren't looking for anything other than corundum so it often gets overlooked and is not easily detected in the thick clay.
Hi Brad, as you may or may not know diamonds are found in very specific conditions like kimberlite tubes. It would not make sense for a diamond to be found in this type of area, unless you know something that I don't diamonds should be far away and very deep usually.
I have a huge white rock and in the center there is the most beautiful dark blue stone. Do you think it's real or just that fake sapphire? It's gorgeous though
the first time i went there like 8 years ago, you could go off into the woods pretty much anywhere, when i went again about 4 years ago, they had a small like maybe 50 by 50 foot area you could dig, looks like theyve changed it again? i guess it would be worth going back and doing some digging.
Hey Daniel ! I still have that iridescent hematite from when my family met you up at Hiddenite mine. What?!😅 And the geodes , for my youngest sons birthday . Man , i have got to get back up to NC.
I live about 5 miles from the emerald mines in Hiddenite, we have been told there is a vein running through our property, always wondered how to figure out if it were true.
@aprilguy201 get ahold of Daniel up at the mine . I'm willing to bet he can direct you to someone who can help , if not, he's not able to . Guy is super knowledgeable.
How do you know whats on your property besides digging? We have mineral rights on ours but no clue whats there. I have metal detectors and they do go off frequently but I also dont know what Im looking for. Have a nice nail collection lol Enjoying your videos Bryan!!
Took a quick peek at you video gallery have you been to Hiddenite NC? Its an emerald hotspot. My brother found one pretty much on the side of the road while working.
Would love to search for Saphire and Ruby.I found my first diamonds. 0,67ct 19 Stones. Hope that i found bigger Stones in the Future. 😊Greetings from Austria
It should be noted you want 365 nm length not 390-395 nm length for long wave UV lights. More minerals react to that wavelength and they are brighter as well.
hi, bryan i love watching your videos, i find them inspiring i would love to just go out and dig me and my family are go to a local place near us. any places that are worth going in SC?. keep up the good work! Going to diamond hill mine
Hi I had a question, how would you know where to start looking for rubies like this ? My brother in law has 11 acres near by, how would I know where the best place to start digging ?
I would love to go with you sometime and show you my Super power of finding gems with out looking for them ! Its awsome and you will be amazed by how i do it❤
Yeah, that would be a great idea! I would have a little bitty machine in there, digging them up and spreading the dirt out and just hitting it with the light, it would be epic!!!
@@TheCrystalCollector like the old fashioned potato planters for farming with a little roof!! Should come up with a quick Google search! They cut open the ground, plant and cover it back up! I'm sure the little round planting bit could be taken out and just a light on the inside of the roof! 😹😹 Heard me like it's actually an invention 😹😹 I do think it would be a fun idea!
I have been watching ur videos for a few years now and I have Rock fever.. lol one day I will get to go hunting ❤ I found these in Somerset Kentucky . But I don't know very much about them if u don't mind will u look at them and tell my what Thay are.. lol Thay maybe just old rock. 😅
Thanks for watching y’all!
Hit that like button if you enjoyed 🙌💎
Hey crystal collector!
why not come over to my house? i got a bunch of crystals in my room
and even some of those gemstone dig kits you could steal haha
I'm ready to tag along!!
Hey Bryan. Impersonator is back. Reported it. Was in my replies.
I always enjoy your videos !!!!! WHOO HOOO FROM CALIFORNIA JOHHNY AND CANDY WHAT !!!!!!!
You think there might be gems and such on this side of Lake Wiley! I live on the east side of the lake system and this place is on the west side of it
In the early 80's I did some work on a new house being built in the Cowee Valley. The backhoe digging the footings pulled out a pocket of rubies with enough gem quality material in it to pay for the cost of the house.

Cap
So how much are these rubies that they're digging up here
My Aunt said never sell your mineral rights.
@@susanj.walterspowers6860if someone is willing to buy your mineral rights in this age, it’s for a reason.
My Aunt and Uncle owned a Ruby mine in Franklin, NC. I used to go visit every summer. I’d go to the mine with them and pan for rubies and sapphires. We used to have jars filled with them.

how is he doing this on a consistant basis? is some of these planted to make for a better video?
Imagine that , buying a property and finding gems in the yard. Amazing finding rubies and sapphires just in the ground. Thank you Bryan for sharing
This actually just happened to us! We have literally mountain full of septarian nodules with calcite crystal
Around Mena, Arkansas, there are lots of quartz Chrystal in the ground.

Night digs with UV, seems like the way to go

Thank you for all your videos. I collect rocks and I've learned so much watching your videos. Always looking forward to the next one
Digging straight down is counterintuitive. You go 8 to 10in down at a time and a crisscross checkerboard pattern. This method has never failed me

Yeah this is the thing to do. Pull out those gravels in bulk, throw them in a mesh screen, blast with water, hit em with UV and the corundum will pop.
If you are in NC, give Crabtree Emerald Mine near Spruce Pine a try!
Thanks for sharing! I wish I lived out your way. I'm in Colorado and going to Ruby Mountain this week! Blessings!

good place finding ruby
imagine buying a property and then discovering you have a fledgling fresh Ruby/Sapphire mine in your brand new backyard like wtf
I wish I could live anywhere and could find stuff like this
Well I wouldn't say a word to anyone I'd just keep digging
Đó là một ước mơ lý tưởng ❤

Hi I had a question, how would you know where to start looking for rubies like this ? My brother in law has 11 acres near by, how would I know where the best place to start digging ?
Do you find any gem grade pieces or are they more like bombs?
Are any of those worth faceting? Just curious what a facetable ruby looks like.

Hi Crystal collector question what do I need for digging Crystal's me and my husband want to do that in our vacation next year?
If I owned a place like this I'd get a giant UV light over my dig site on a nighttime wonder if it would work? Be fun too as I'm a night owl!

Corrundum also firms hexagonal spindles in the train habit.
How many sides does that single have? 6? It's corrundum, not quartz..
Are these gem quality, the type that could be faceted and then set in a gold or silver mount?
Amazing
I would love to buy a bucket of dirt from there. Any chances ?
Wouldn’t it be easier to dig at night with the uv light?
If Brian hadn’t had a blue T-shirt, I could almost mistaken him as part as the diggs. Hahahaha It’s been a while but thank for this video my friend.
pretty cool, probably the easiest mining anyone could ask for.
