- Gem Club Series Part 1
We are in with the New Jersey Gem Clubs that sponsored this trip. Clubs are a great way to meet new people and go out to new locations to dig crystals! Check out these clubs on their website and facebook pages!
no nO NO!! You can't stop this video after just 9 and a halv minute....🥺 Many videos out there on You Tube are long enough after 10 minutes, but yours are not.... I could sit here and watch videos from you for hours👌 so remember that next time sir😁
- Btw, thank you so much for sharing this mate🙏 Excellent work👍X1000
I am so surprised! I have been living in Pennsylvania my entire life and collect rocks I have never knew there are Amethyst here I always thought they were only down south!
Same!
Same with me.
Same.
Sameeee
Just caught this video. I have always loved crystals but never thought about going out and look for my own until recently. I actually live in Pennsylvania. Between the Allegheny range and Laurel Highlands area. My husband and I are looking forward to warmer weather so we can go rock hounding. Thank you so much for sharing this experience with everyone. Hopefully we have as much luck as those who were at this site with you.
Amazing area!
like as dig up sweet potatoes.
I think that amethyst under this field detached from parent rock, transported, and deposited low-gradient area or
under the action of denudation, transported by water, deposited in this field. First is eluvial deposit and second is alluvial deposit.
Yes they have for certain moved out of place, I’d love to take a machine to this location!!
I grew up in Lancaster county and every year, after teh Amish plow you can literally walk any fields and find crystals. I have pulled a lot of amethyst and smolkies from areas just south of Rt. 30 in Paradise twp. This REALLY looks like that area... Excellent video(s)!! Please keep up the great work!
Do they allow you to walk and look and take them? I'm a few hrs from there and am seriously considering going sometime to look.
@@Tsos1211 I tihnk it's cool if you get the farmers permission. I grew up in Kinzers and you could literally walk the fields and pull crystals. Best time is in the spring though after the first plow and when the corn starts coming up.
Greetings from East Yorkshire UK 🇬🇧 Dude I love your videos, you’re always filled with enthusiasm which I admire, some of your finds 😲
Thank you so much for getting me out there and look at treasure like these after so many years trying to deal with depression your video really help me like some other TH-cam people I became a treasure hunter
Sweeet brother! Yea there is lots of fun stuff to do in this world, sometimes we get set back and makes it tough to enjoy them. I’m glad your back having a good time🙌💎🙏😊
Where is this place at
oh my!! I would be satisfied with just one tiny one. lol. beautiful.
I am amazed how close to the surface the crystals were, take a shovel and a pick and get digging lol. Some lovely clusters and singles and those really dark ones are a colour I've never seen before Bryan, like you said almost black!! Thank you for sharing your time with us, take care my friend Mary-Ellen UK
That’s some trippy and beautiful Amethyst. Amazing what’s all to be found in the earth. Nice vid bro! 🙏
That dude on the left got me dead at 0:19 lmao had the same face the whole time
Pennsylvania that's my hometown great video loved it happy Easter
Me 2 lol
From western Pa, damn am I jealous! There's nothing here but shale and sandstone.
Only they joint the New Jersey gem club can access be gained
@@TheCrystalCollector Back when I was growing up in Pittsburgh I would have joined a club to do this if I had to sell my blood for dues. All I really had was the ballast on railroad tracks to look through. They used crushed granite full of very interesting pegmatitic inclusions. I wish I still had some of the cryrals I found. Pieces of what I now know to be calcite 3 inches across water clear! But, I wanted to be the one to actually dig it out. Now, I am retired, rebuilding my Xterra and planning. Your videos have been extremely helpful in adding to must go destinations. Thanks dude!
Same in lancaster east no clue where they where
True 😂 there is lots of coal and sometimes potentially fossils🤷🏻♂️
@@TheCrystalCollector slate slate quartz flint calcite slate and more slate here in Croatia
Hi from Wales 🏴👋👋☺️
My grandfather on my dad's side was from Wales so a BIG HELLO to you : )
The best part about coming back from vacation is getting caught up on all my youtube channels. TWO Crystal Collector videos? WHAAAT!
Nice.. now I need a couple of those dark points.. gorgeous coloring
I love the 1 piece you showed at the end, where the purple of the amethyst runs up the sides to the tip. So beautiful! I have a piece that is a slab and almost every point is like that. Very wonderful to watch your videos Always 💜🙌💎💜
I am so glad I discovered your channel. I have always loved rocks. Collected rocks from all my trips when I was younger. I like the fact also that you give good information about the websites and places to go. It’s always been on my bucket list to go to some of these places but I’ve never been able to do. I’ve been going back through all your videos and watching them. Please keep them coming thank you
Thanks so much for the support! I’ll be doing many new videos this year on new places to go digging! 🙌🙏💎⚒
I've been watching your older videos, and I've never seen anyone who can just walk through a big pile of dirt and find crystals like you do. I think you misnamed your channel. You should call yourself the "Crystal Whisperer."
Susan A so true 👌🏻😆 iv never seen someone picking up that much of crystals
Always happy to see a new video from you, it makes my day. I've watched some other rockhounding channels, but yours is the best.
Wow so beautiful..Love the dark colors
i love geology... been rockhounding since i was tiny... it never gets old! i have too many amethyst hehe :) awesome to see everyone diggin out there
Is it public or private
I got the digging fever since discovering your channel
Great big hello-hugs from me and mom in Pennsylvania! Mom’s a big fan of yours. She and I both got SO excited when we saw you did a video in PA - If only we knew you were here! However, this looks maybe like Lancaster-ish which isn’t ‘exactly’ where we are. Still super fun tho! 🌷
🤗🤗🤗 Yes it’s in the area, but the only way to get theirs to the clubs. Check out the Virginia location on Digging now wants to do the video, it will be open to the public all the time!
Yeah I was going to say looks like Lanc. County- ish. I'm sure privately owned, definitely would need permission.
Congrats on all the gorgeous finds! Looks like a fun day for everyone. Tfs.
Looks like y'all had a great day out. Congrats to all on these great finds!
Thanks for always sharing your adventures with us.
This is one one of my favorite locations to collect. I have never seen such large pieces come out of there o like on this video. For those that know, please don’t divulge. It is on private land. Love your channel btw
Where is it? I live in Chester, Pa
Can you please share the location
I love waking up to your videos. Such a nice way to begin my day 😁🥰😍❤️
💜💜💜💎🙏🙏
Fantastic adventure sweet sweet finds 🙌🏻👍🏻 thanks for another great video
Nice! Lovely day and lovely crystals.
You've inspired me to want to go dig for Crystals. Love your videos man, WHHAAAAT!
very beautiful indeed
My goodness man the colour of them is magnificent! 😳🍇💎
Those were some nice colors. All nice specimens🤗
Loving your channel, greetings from Berlin Germany
some of those look like powder sugared amethyst, pretty cool stuff!
Oh man, I wish we had fields like this where I grew up. The most we ever found was quarts and tiny reed fossils.
I'm sure everyone wants a field with amethyst trees being planted the videos fake
Hey Crystal Collector! First, I just want to say thank you for your awesome channel. My wife and I find you super fun to watch and we catch ourselves saying Whaaaat! all the time now. The purple heart mine is fascinating! We live in South Dakota and are seriously considering taking a road trip to a public dig thanks to you. Here, we go looking for fairburn agates but we'd love to find some gemmy crystals. Keep up the great work. Much support and respect.
Nice public dig, want to see more! :)
Wow they have such a deep color :O so epich and the size of some of them!
I absolutely love your videos. I would love to have you come down to Llano County in Texas. The river beds are covered in quartz and Micah. Also if you're lucky you can find blue and Imperial topaz. I live in Austin which is a 2 hour drive from the main topaz area. Keep up the good work.
Sweeet, would enjoy checking that out! Mayne this summer or later summer! 🙌💎💎💎⚒
Your program is very educational. Recently visited Arkansas and discovered some nice quartz crystals.
Please record each dig trip! I love these kinds of videos and i know im not the only one. I wanna go next time!
Absolutely blows my mind that they are literally just in the ground like that... I thought for sure you'd have to pry them out of large chunks of rock matrix, but no, you can pretty much just peel them out of the dirt!! :) I am planning my first excavation in San Diego because of your videos, I am so excited! :)
love love your videos ... thank you
Just promise me you're not gonna retire anytime soon..........I need to work on getting back strength and mobility SOON and would LOVE to follow you on a dig!!!!!! PA........my home base!
Oh I’m just getting started on these videos! 🙏💎🙌🙏⚒⚒⚒💜 thanks for watching
@@TheCrystalCollector AWESOME!!!!
So fun!!! Loved this one!
My local mineral group (Lancaster fossil and mineral) brings us here at least once a year. This is one of our “backyard” localities! I believe I see a familiar face.. Kerri!
Oh that’s really cool, this is a nice location and fun today. We got there after a tiny bit of rain had occurred so there was some surface finds.
@@TheCrystalCollector Thanks! It’s a crazy cool spot! So can’t wait to hit this up again, as well as the local gap nickel mine. Upon some my research on rocks and minerals in PA. I stumbled upon a prospect in Ashland, PA called the smoky mountain prospect. Mindat shows that this location has produced some absolutely gorgeous smokies. I’m digging deep to find more info but hitting some blocks. Have you heard anything about this location?
Also, this has been said by many others already. But I greatly appreciate your videos! Before my wife and I traveled from PA to SC to dig.. we watched your Diamond hill video on repeat haha. I would say that it definitely prepared us for it! That heat though Saturday!
💜
Hello my friend, I love your videos , this is what I want to do when I'm ready. Thank TH-cam for putting him on my suggestion feed now I'm so hooked.😊 I just have one question, I've been watching some videos of some severe Rocky landslides, and then they finally settle after the disaster. Is that a good time to mine for gems after a whole side of a mountain just slid down? I was just curious. Thank you
Yes if the area is mineral rich then that cold be a great time but would need to be extra cautious because of more loose rock that would be falling
This almost looks like Chester/Lancaster /Berks areas
True
awesome video
Great video as usual! Amethyst is my favorite stone. Only problem with the video was it ended too soon. 💎❤️👍👌🏼
Thank you 😊💎
So cool! We are in SC now and hope to find a place to have a digging adventure! Our options are limited so we might have to check out the diamond hill mine. We want to stay in SC. :)
What part of PA is this? Just went on an Obsidian hunt this weekend in Schuylkill county. Walked creek beds and scored 10 lbs of Anthropogenic Obsidian
Love your channel man
Oh i love this colour.😚😚
Looks like the Bart Township, PA, ive heard some used to find Amethyst off Mt. Pleasant rd,
Its all just farms though, nothing public, you would have to know someone there and get permission, and after crops are planted im sure you wouldnt be able to look, untill after they are harvested.
That’s kind of the situation here, they have about two weeks to look in between the crops and things being planted
That was amazing
wowww im from pennsylvania i neeeed to learn spotslike these
Where was this? I live in pa near Hershey. I want to go crystal hunting so bad but have no idea where to start.
Wow.. Nice 👍👍👍
There is a few spots just outside of Jim Thorpe, PA that have great crystals and somewhat accessible. They are out here.
I live in erie pa I didn't hear about this
beautiful💎
I hope you reply to this, that was beautiful. Where in Pennsylvania was this? Nearest town?
Michaela Brown I agree, I’d like to know!
Great dig!
Super Cool ! 😎
I just joined both clubs!! 🙌🏼🤍
Sweet!!! 💎💎💎💎💎💯💜🙌
You will have a great time on the digs! Hope to do some soon in Florida if you could make it out!
I knew there were amethyst in PA. If you go searching where 2b stone has been brought in from the local quarry, you will find a little. My question is how did the amethyst come to be deposited here? Is this the only place you can find it in a field in PA?
Fields full of purple gold.
I'm from PA I have a peice of amathyste I found in my yard when I was a kid it looks like river rock.
Hi,
My daughters and I live your videos. Could you suggest some cool ideas for places to go hunting? We are from Montreal Canada?
Check out my list on my channel for public locations
I've lived in pa my whole life n never knew amethyst was here!! (I'm west central pa though)
Your parents are beautiful.
Your follower from Iraq
Where in Pennsylvania? Are they open for public? I want to go?
WOW!!!...where in PA is this?!!!
Почти всегда индукционные грани,видно,в своё время,хорошие были крупные щётки,но потом всё распахали тракторами.
Hi from Germany 🇩🇪
Me and my daughter would love to do this kind of thing she is so interested in stones and such we have a collection but she would love to find some her self I hope one of the clubs let's kids in too
Where are you guys digging?? Im located near shamokin pa.
How do you know where to dig?
Where exactly is this located in PA? I would love to check this spot out if you wouldn't mind sharing ?!?
Can i become apart of this ? If so, how?
Hi! Can you tell me where this farm is exactly?? I live in Delaware Cty and would love to dig here!
I didn't know you could find stuff like this in Pennsylvania very close by to me... I'm sure if I research it I can find a public mine to dig..those dark amethyst are absolutely amazing remind me of a juicy purple grape.. gosh I want some now... and to be able to pull it out of the ground with your own hands what pleasure!! and do you keep all of your finds?
There is no public mind for amethyst in Pennsylvania but I’m working one in Virginia this week, I highly suggest making a visit here. I’m turning around a bunch of piles in the amethyst are coming out all over the place, very similar to the Pennsylvania spot but way better even, and it’s open to the public for $15 per day. I’m gonna be here for a couple more days, maybe three but it’s open all the time🙏🙌
@@TheCrystalCollector its not the Scuffling acres mine is it?? Been there if it is!!!Got some nice stuff!!
Oh and PS I want some nice juicy purple amethyst now... not juicy grapes LOL
Just wondering if you have to refill the holes you dig
Not at this location because it’s only a one time, once per week dig and the farmer use tractors to fill the holes right in
@@TheCrystalCollector thank you I was just wondering very cool love watching your videos and the puppy so cute . Hugs great job you have I also collect but on a very small scale but I don’t find the beautiful ones you do lol
Where is the mine located and when is it open
I'm just outside Harrisburg and I've always wanted to go digging. I just have no idea where to go. Whenever I've asked people for help on where to go.....they laugh and just say good luck any suggestions?
Yes, the biggest suggestion I could have us join the local clubs as mentioned in this video, that’s the best way to get access to places
Is this site open to public collecting normally, or was this a special permission dig?
Where is this? Milford PA ? Or strouds area ? I’d love to know
I can’t remember the exact location, but to dig here you would have to join the club
@@TheCrystalCollector I understand, I just live in NEPA and was wondering
Lindas pedras gostei vai o joinha
Are you going to be doing any public digs at the purple 💜
Once we get the proper permission, trying to work that out
The Crystal Collector can’t wait to sign up once you have that worked out! Killing it down there man
❤️❤️❤️👍👍
I'm from Berks? Where in Pa.?
Private location only accessed thru club, I made a promise I wouldn’t tell
Where is this at, is it open to the public?
Where at in Pennsylvania i woul love to take my boys there i live in pittsburgh pa
Not to sound stupid, but what happens to these after you find them?
