    I used to collect garnets as a kid on my summer trips to the North Carolina (Appalachia) mountains. Always a good time but of course I was never as careful extracting them with claw hammers and the like. After going through a lot of geology videos and lectures I find it fascinating how very similar rocks can occur on the other side of the continent and now I know they've formed in very similar ways only millions of years apart. Its crazy to me learning that these rocks initially formed on the ocean floor and metamorphosed before being exposed millions of years later. Awesome stuff Dan, love your channel.

    Hey Dan,
    After seeing that beach that was just covered with Garnets, I figured they were all small and easy to remove from the host material.
    Now you show me what mother nature had to of done with some of her gems over years of tumblin, crushing or grinding.
    Simply fascinating !
    Thanks Dan.
    Take Care

    I still love the super high quality garnet paydirt that I got from you recently. I used them in a ring for my dad for Christmas and he loved it. I tagged you on Instagram on the post with photos of the ring and of just the garnets.
    Those tiny garnets that you pan for are perfect for inlay rings. If they were bigger, like the ones in this video, I would have to crush them, which would introduce microfractures in the smaller pieces.

    There are some very large garnets in Maryland. Unfortunately, most are heavily fractured from the numerous plate collisions and rifting events in the Appalachian region. I've found a number of these that were cherry-sized worn out into the gravels of small streams.

    Dan I think if you alter the frequency of the vibration you can alter the vibrational frequency through the water to change and alter the speed in which the vibration is goes to the water. it will alter the pattern in which you process your material. a simple dimmer switch in line with your machine should work

  • @kaboom4679
    @kaboom4679 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Id guess tourmaline on those black crystals , but could be staurolite or a dozen other minerals .
    The pinolite chips are a nice solution for a buffer .
    If you didn't have any a few big handfuls of marble chips would work just as well .
    Almandine garnets have a ridiculous amount of iron in them and tend to weather quite quickly , literally rusting away and staining the rocks .
    I have seen plenty of rocks with the tell tale garnet shaped holes , after the garnets weathered away .
    It's common with pyrite as well .
    For those in the Southeast US , the area around the Copper Basin in Southeastern TN , has some fantastic examples of schist riddled with cubic holes left by the pyrite weathering away . These are very pronounced in the bed of the Ocoee River and the patterns are very striking .
    The old copper mines are long gone , but there is a pretty good museum in Ducktown , which is worth a visit if you are in the area .
    The Ocoee also has some nice white water for those that like rafting or kayaking .
    Banjos are optional .

    You should get yourself a Mohs hardness tester/kit, I'm surprised you don't already have one. You might also consider a vise with an anvil head, very handy as a working surface. I used to play with rocks doing lapidary and specimens, especially geodes, for a fleamarket stall. I needed everything to fit in a small area so I built some heavy tables using 6x8s right there in the stall. It was great being able to attach whatever gizmo I found to play with on the rocks w/o being concerned if the tables were strong enough.

    Love those garnets! Years ago when I found your channel, I went back and watched EVERY one of your videos, including all the first "smartphone" ones when your kids were small. I have great respect for the success you have worked so hard for, and will continue to watch. That being said, I refuse to be on social media, so I will never be able to see the results. Would you be willing to add a few stills at the end for an old curmudgeon like me? Thanks.

  • @EddieSchirmer
    @EddieSchirmer 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    i was thinking it might be interesting if you could use an air- abrader machine to uncover the garnets by removing only the surrounding rock. is there a way to check the hardness of the garnets compared to the schist and choose an abrasive that would work? i would love to see that done, as here in vermont are tons of garnets too, i find them in the rocks in the local river here. once of which has garnets 3/4 inch and some may be larger.

The Granite was weathered and oh boy. Twin Feldspair and garnets galore. I have a tumbler just like that. I got it for my metal shop but it has ceramic shapes and grit now. The rocks came out well.

    I like those big, gemmy red garnets. When I was growing up, in a small town outside of Montréal, there was a large glacial erratic sitting next to a road close to our house. It was studded with garnets. I sometimes wonder what happened to that rock. Did it get blasted apart, or is it still sitting beside the road?

    Would a set of stone chisels and a masonry chisel be of use? M chisel is made to split stuff, and the point and rake chisels are good for digging stuff out.

    You should get one of those large wheel carts for dragging deer, I think you could get a few hundred pounds on it for sure

    So Dan, where exactly is this spot?! Ha ha ha. When I lived in Idaho near the Bitterroots, I knew of some springs that had exceptionally large garnets that were totally loose not trapped in rock at all.

    Hey Dan, Im from Michigan and Im wondering if youve ever heard of our state stone, the Petoskey Stone? its a fossilized coral but idk much more about it than that. Ive read that it can be used as a gemstone. Curious if youre interested in finding someone in michigan with some land that has some petoskey on it and coming here to film a video. Id be super excited to see a video about our state stone.
