Thank youuu. Most days I talk to rocks and minerals more than people. I am overjoyed that this dialogue is appreciated by the crystal community here. ( :
Really appreciate your effort, passion, and knowledge of geology. One of the hardest things to do is translate theory to field identification of both minerals and features at a larger scale. You do both really well!
Your comment means a metric tonne to me. I get light bulbs in my geology classes all the time, only to find that when I get to the field to apply the concepts, there's a dozen other factors to considder. The textbooks teach concepts well, but you're right; much translation and interpretation is still required. One of my upper division class professors said last week, "Geology and its maps are the most speculaltive of any science, much is still being unraveled." I'm motivated by the uncertainty and look forward to sharing any relationships found between rocks and minerals in future videos. Thanks again.
I saw your You The Tube video, liked it so we Subscribed. We are Disabled Seniors with our 47yr old Son who is a Tetraplegic. We recently became Rockhounds and Lapidary. We just Rock around our neighborhood in our wheelchairs. Getting ready is an adventure in itself=hehehe. We definitely cannot trek that type of Terrain. Anyway, going to view your other videos. Thank You For Sharing WITH US AND THE REST OF THE WORLD. MANY BLESSINGS UPON YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.
I love your attitude, despite all of your circumstances. All of the sub-disciplines of geology mineralogy are soul sciences IMO. I too have circumstances that limit me in many ways. But this sacred Earth has proven to be a profound healer and has even disintegrated a long term diagnosis that I received from a doctor. I'm elated to be able to bring the magic of the forest and minerals to you and will strive to continue to do so going forward. Much love & light to you, Forest Elf🌿
Honestly this is the best learning geology that I have found. Really helping me visualize what is happening. I am surprised you don't have more subscribers.
That's one of my biggest aspirations with this channel: education. We can learn a lot from books and complex web articles, but that knowledge means very little without actually seeing it at play in natural systems. I am flattered by your comment and will strive to maintain a balance between education, science, magic, and entertainment in future videos. ( :
I just got back from Colorado on my first rock hounding trip. I would love to find a pegmatite like that but I’m still learning how to find things, and getting access is hard! Everything was private or federal land 😬. But gosh I had a blast and I can’t wait to go on more adventures!
I happy to hear you appreciate the views. I've noticed that many rockhounding and prospecting videos do not show the topography and terrain. However, it is an integral part to inderstanding the formation environments of minerals so I'll continue to incorporate them. Cheers
I was apprehensive about whether to include the drawings or not. Glad to know they are appreciated and helpful to understanding the trajectory of the field explorations.
I live real close to this area. I would like to take my grandson to a spot where he can actually find something he Catan keep. We've been going to storm mountain close to Drake Co. With no luck. Exept for real tiny garnets. Would you be able to disclose the spot you're in. We are very responsible rockhounds. Thank you. And good luck.
BTW, since we cannot trek those type of Terrain, we are more than willing to pay for your items/finds. Man, those are wonderful and Amazing Creations. We mainly purchase online and where we can trek. However, we are Retired and on a Budget.
Ahaw. I lived in Florida for a couple years and got so crystal-sick that I began looking into the geology and mineralogy of limestone, dolostone and chert deposits. I did find calcified clams and colorful agatized coral while wading around in Hillsborough Bay, only 45min from my house. I have learned that nearly every type of geologic environment produces some unique mineral variety(ies). I hope that with some research you may find crystals in your area too!!
Dzięki za komentarz. Masz rację, jeśli chodzi o nauczanie, jak czytać mapy, aby znaleźć te lokalizacje. W przyszłości planuję w niektórych filmach uczyć czytania map geologicznych, aby inni mogli odkryć takie złoża minerałów.
your very good with geology , found this very interesting , just slow down with the camera and your doing a great job in education.
Your narration is spectacular! And it’s due to your extensive knowledge of geology.
Excellent!

This video is dope, your channel gives me hope as an amateur prospector 💪
I clicked on the vid for some early Sunday education/relaxation. It was actually a bit of a cliffhanger! lol, excellent job
Bro did not just pick up animal droppings and call them "loose garnets."
Amazing video

Phenomenal vid! Great views, love the pencil sketches, and really enjoyed your presentation. Thanks for sharing.

Love the drawings you incorporated… definitely helps me better understand what you are explaining

love your vids man, always learning something new from you! keep em coming!
Beautiful Video of capturing the Deers.
Your geology lesson at the end, please make a short out of that. That was wonderful. lol
Thank you for the suggestion! I love hearing everyone's interests to plan how I can share knowledge in fun ways. ( :

Shoot me an email. It can be found on my main YT page -> about -> details -> show email. Alternatively, a link to my FB is in my YT bio. Cheers✨
Veryvery nicec😍😍
i wish i had just one piece .we do not have mountains ...😂😂

Ya was there in the same place
hmmm…loose garnets…better have a quick taste to be sure
- szacun ( ja bym tam nie wykladalam filmikow ale w czas i mape p.wekiem XV zainwesyowala bym i tyle , spoko 😊❤)
