So many great pieces!! I was going to comment so many times...(insert time stamp) "this one's my favorite." Then 30 seconds later, "No, this one's my favorite." 30 seconds later, "No, this one's my favorite!" Ha! You guys did great! I'm going to have to get a pocket dig this spring, if I can. I have never done a pocket dig there at Twin Creek before, so it'll be a good experience for me.
Wow you guys took home some amazing pieces! Twin Creek has always been my favorite, and this is another video that proves why they are one of the best mines in Arkansas 👍
My only question is this: When I go out collecting I usually wind up putting a few specimens in my case. With all the crystals you found what do you do with them? Certainly you can't display all of them so I assume you must sell. Otherwise, after you make four or five trips you would be burried in crystals
We display the bigger pieces, the others we have in bins. One day we plan to sell some, but for now we just like to collect them. It's hard to pick which ones to part with.
Its twin creek crystal mine in mt ida arkansas. They don't have amythest crystals, but they have beautiful quartz crystals, phantom crystals, and possibly some smokey but rare. We are going back the second week of april for another pocket dig. Pocket digs start at $300 and go up as high as $1000 or more. But its a lot of work. You'll need a 3-4 lbs sledge hammer, pry bars, screw drivers and or picks. And garden kneelers for your knees. You'll have to beat it out. It took me between 4-6 hours to get it all out.
That orange is iron oxide staining, oxalic acid will tzke that right off, after you pick all that packed in clay from the clusters it will clean those up too. Your mineral inclusion is probably manganese.
Greetings. Is a cool video but when you take out the ceistals out of the earth you don't yanked force them out because it happens what you expirience they all broke. What you do is work around and one by one with just a move it and soft movements will get loose. Aorry if i make any mistakes in writing is because my main language is spanish.
When you do a private pocket dig at twin creek Bobby the owner gets the pocket ready for you. But you have to get the pieces out yourself. The last part of the day Bobby helped us a bit because I didnt have the proper bar to pry it out. So currently we have bought the proper bigger bars to get it own 100% on our own next time. This was our first ever pocket dig. We paid $500 and left with over $3000 in crystals. 😎😀
Too small to watch the video on a phone the way you recorded it 😢. I'll have to wait until im at a cpu to check out your video, us old people cant see that well, and most creators just turn the phone sideways so it fills the screen instead of wasting it 😕.
@@MrJackson66Thanks for the feedback. This is one of our first videos, we have learned to do that since then. If you hit the full screen button on the bottom right it does make it a tad bit bigger. Thank you for watching.🙂
Thank You for taking Your precious time to give us these beautiful eye candy treasures. You Rock. Shared.
Absolutely stunning, thank you for sharing!

You guys should get a small gimbal and shoot in landscape mode!
@@richiesun9676 Thats a good idea. Thank you.

Saya sangat suka batu akik, kebetulan video anda berada di beranda dan saya suka
How much was your private dig?
We paid $500 for our dig. The costs for private digs are between $300 and $1000.
You got some nice pieces! When were you there and how long did you get to dig?
@@Chelsea-552 We were there last april. And dug for 8 hours.
Looks like somebody else dug your pocket for you
