  • Mining for Herkimer Diamonds at the one and only TROPHY DIG!!! At Ace of Diamonds in Middleville, New York. This location has some of the best quality quartz crystals in the world!!
    WHaaaaaaaat!
    For a fee they will open up a pocket right in front of you and you get to clean it out!
    Had some friends doing one so I filmed it, and it was epic!
    Found Calcite flowers on them, very awesome!

    Very nice pocket. Haven't seen any Herkimers with calcite on them like that before. So the big question is, how do you plan to clean the specimens with both minerals? Can't just drop calcite into oxalic acid, so what's the plan? I also couldn't tell if the calcite had a layer of another substance on the outside or was just rough from being water-worn or growing in the clay.
