Went to the local spot to find some sagenite. I found some great stuff sifting through the old piles. I'll cut open what I found soon ^^ Oregon Rocks! Rockhounding Oregon | Seam Agates & Quartz Crystal Seam
Old timers used to pull hundreds of lbs /day out of this location. Crazy cool material back then, but those days are long gone and this is what we are left with. Still pretty cool though ^^
Morels season is running very late in oregon... still none in northern Oregon, usually they would be fruiting by April 15th on an average year. The soil temperature needs to be consistently over 60° Fahrenheit for a few days at least for them to come up.
@The Rogue Rockhound and Prospector yeah southern Oregon is Morel country for sure. You ever find burn morels? They fruit heavily the first year after a fire. I found about 800 morels in 2021 it was epic after those big fires!
I have now added a seam agate with fortification to my "must have rock find" list. Just the little lines peeking through on that giant one at the end got my interest. I'm going to set my bar high and hope to find a waterline fortified agate, which I discovered existed after watching this video and looking up the terms. Thank you for always educating along with entertaining. I very much appreciate your shares every time!
Oh wow! I just came over from Agate Ariel’s TH-cam. Amazing rocks you sent her. I now have to add Oregon to my wish list to visit. I would love to find some of your “potatoes”😂😂😂. Love geodes! I’m from Minnesota..
Awesome waking up seeing there's a new Rogue Rockhound & Prospector video 😁 Just another day at the office looking for agates and other goodies, lol. Cool that you guys found a new creek and new rockhounding spot 👍Too bad, no morrels. Hope you found some amethyst amongst your finds. Either way, it looks like you found some great stuff and had a great time. I polished a couple more treasures you've shared with me, and I will have a video to upload soon. They turned out great! Excellent video, Andrew. Take care, buddy 😁🤙
Funny you say that about the amethyst buddy b/c RHQ did find a pretty thick amethyst seam there. I think it he showed it in his vid of the spot. Thanks for all the support man and I hope to chat w/ ya soon
How did I miss you posting a vid? Off in my own lil world🙄 Some really pretty stuff there, the blues and pinks are cool looking! I keep wanting to snatch up the stuff you throw away😂
I totally understand lol I'm just glad you are able to watch. One day I'll head your way to do some exploring. I'd love to see whats behind those woods I used to play in. I know there is a huge mine
Wow what a spot. I would have taken everything with greens and blues. 😅 man.. I would have liked to take more from Iceland but I didnt knew how they like it at the airport.. Wasnt a problem at all at the end.
3:06 omg that is soooo beautiful I don’t think we have anything like that around here I’m the granite state but I’m pretty sure I bought a tiny little piece like smaller than a quarter of that pure blue color for like $32 🤦 I would just be keeping everything I found pretty at this spot haha what a beautiful place and world we live in where things like these exist. Absolute beauty. Edited because I can’t spell and autocorrect is auto wrong
Local oakridge dude here, do you have any idea how I can get up to the abandoned quartz mine outside Westfir? I’ve been looking all over for it and still haven’t found it😂
Unfortunately, I've never looked into that buddy. Let me see what I can find out for ya though. Send me a PM via IG/FB and we'll see what we can do man
This is not a mining site but rather a local "hounding" spot. Technically, they are not tailings, but I figured the verbiage would work for the situ. Think of it as a VIP spot for locals ^^ Thanks for watching Doug!!

Oregon Rocks! Rockhounding Oregon | Seam Agates & Quartz Crystal Seam
Where is this ? Southern Oregon ?
@@reneebeltran7628 Yes. ^^
Dayum, that's a great spot! Since I have close to no standards I'd leave that place with like 50 lbs of rocks. x)
Same! 😂 quality, who?
Bahahahaha me too!!!! I have problems
Old timers used to pull hundreds of lbs /day out of this location. Crazy cool material back then, but those days are long gone and this is what we are left with. Still pretty cool though ^^
You're killing me Smalls 🤯❤❤
I try ^^
When you find a spot with that many you can afford to be picky! What a killer deposit of agate nodules and crystals!!! Great content my friend 😊 👏

My haul was tiny compared to what Ive been seeing in the FB groups

@@TheRogueRockhound anytime! And yeah, the quarry is bigger than ever!
I love hounding there, it's such an awesome spot!
Solid bro

That was my thought as well! LOL
Me too!!
HAHA! I hear that a lot ^^
Wow what a spot. I would have taken everything with greens and blues. 😅 man.. I would have liked to take more from Iceland but I didnt knew how they like it at the airport.. Wasnt a problem at all at the end.
Thanks! Lots of color up there
Send me a PM on IG/FB sometime, I'm always happy to share w/ cool people ^^
Are you at the Worthington spot in this video, will definitely have to go there sometime,
Nope, but not far from it.
Now is a great time to hit Worthington before the Poison Oak comes out heavy

What material were they mining? Kind of hard to determine from the variety in the tailings.
This is not a mining site but rather a local "hounding" spot.
Technically, they are not tailings, but I figured the verbiage would work for the situ.
