  • I visit a pegmatite quarry north of Madawaska for the purposes of collecting Canadian rocks and minerals, in particular feldspar, mica, allenite, zircon and fergusonite. As can be seen, mineral collecting in the north at abandoned mines is both a beautiful and lucrative experience.

    Great video thanks for sharing. Did you happen to notice any pinfire Feldspar at all? Potential Sunstone? Some of those you picked up are amazing wow!

    I did not notice anything like that, but the translucence on the feldspar that I did show was hard to capture properly.

    Do you ever check the radiation level to make sure a rock hunting site is safe?

    • @chancebutler6472
      @chancebutler6472 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      we should check radiation/metals/dessecrated blood cells from the planes they dump on us and the sun and not trust the weather channel :)

    • @chancebutler6472
      @chancebutler6472 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      more uvb radiation, the stuff they spray destroyed the ozone layer and seperately makes u burn faster by reflecting more at you at once sometimes. south side of some trees already have bark burning off from the march sun. planned food shortage will be "caused by that"

    Do you gold pan? Have you seen any super tiny yellow or pink diamonds about the size of a .05 mm for a big one? I keep fiding distinctly diamond shaped minerals with horizontally striated faces ,from a kimberlitic area in the adirondack mountains and just east of them.

    Great video Michael. Thanks for the education once again, I've learned a lot from you over the years. Really nice feldspars at that spot. I'll have to try and get there someday.

    Nice spot eh? Very hard to find fergusonite there. They are associated with the mica. Thanks for posting

    • @Caver461
      @Caver461  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have a plan to re-visit soon - my aim will be to find a properly formed fergusonite crystal and possibly some zircon like yourself.

    Concoidal fracture is signatory for quartz ,obsidian , other amorphous materials, ie glass. Strips of bootie about 1/2to3/4 of an inch usually indicates an earlier solutions.

      @charlesbduke7947 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yea that might be columbium/tantalite, it can leave stains

      The Nubble quarry in Maine has a similar appearance but the biotite can be partially altered to muscovite , interstitial beryl , tiny garnets .

      Be careful, the rock on the walls is very loose in places. I'm thinking I probably went to close at times.
