    I have dug mineral hill for 9 years my friend who is a geologist believes the peg that produced all this is connected some how to smedley where you fine the green beryl. I believe there are a bunch of peg out crops around delco. Mineral hill you will find what I be sunstone to be embedded in the moonstone and amazonite, but it needs to be tested. There is an area where the moonstone bleeds out of the side again by the 1000s, not all is moonstone but i usually fill a large bag with potienial pieces , I think you get everything correct, I have cabbed about 100 pieces of amazonite and moonstone and maybe 5 sunstones they are pretty rare, I even cabbed what looks to be a sunstone mixed with blue moonstone.

    Actinolite is actually asbestos, hence why it looks like "fiberglass".

      Thanks for watching m schmidt. I really don't want to post where this location is online since it's a pretty fragile area that can't handle a lot of people heading there. I hope you understand. All the best to you - Paul
