We truly are like 2 kids playing on the rock pile...lol We love it and love to share it with our friends. Mostly life is a bear and most folks really are searching for the child like wonder and fun, that we used to have as kids and soooo why not?...LOL
OMGG! Hello SeaJay, I just found your channel and am quite enchanted by the way you show people how to find Agates Galore! I have also been collecting stones and Agates since I was a small child. Then moved away from it in my teens and began again in my late 20's and totally lost myself to the stone people at 30. Here I am at 58 and still falling in love with them every day. I have a strong pull for Crystals and a huge love for Agates and Jasper. But, I also love finding Heart shaped Leaverites. [ A Leaverite stone is not worth anything except to the one who finds it.] It's any ordinary looking rock that most people would just "Leaver- right- where- you-found-it" Hence..."Leaverite". I Love your energy when you are finding the stones, as you glow with excitement. I do the same when I go rock hunting. So nice to see someone else enjoying them as much as I do. Wishing you both Love, Light, Peace, and Happiness. Namaste!
LOL, I do adore a good stone & rock hunt & finding ... thank you for watching & the wonderful compliments! If you are drawn to crystals, you should visit Crystal Park Montana ... you will go NUTS!! You pay $5 to park & anything you dig up is yours!
I couldn't help but chuckle. You to rocking the quarried piles. Reminded me of two kids playing in the sandbox. :) I get just as stoked with finds like that. Nice tip on another place to find these beauties!
@Michael Johnson, it feels like that too!! We were having so much fun & we get super stoked finding agates & cool rocks!! So glad you liked the video!!
My husband and I actually tried this today and it works our local excavating company let us go look we had a blast found lots of material nice tip guys thanks
You guys are amazingly helpful. Down to earth and I love y'all! New fan! Thanks for tips on getting started. I need more reasons to keep my fat bottom outside and active. And I'm really digging this rockhounding hobby. You're very good ambassadors for rockhounding. So kind and knowledgeable. Not all that over the top masculinity on other channels that's very off putting for a female just getting started. Thank you so incredibly much. From EarthLynx0013
They have to get rocks from somewhere local! Always ask for permission to go thru someone's rocks. You will probably get some weird looks, but rockhounds always get looks, stares, or glazed eyes when we get to describing all the cool things we know about beautiful agates, gemmy jaspers, & amazing crystals! Yes, when Mother Nature turns on her spray bottle (rain), it is one of the best times to look for rocks!! You are most welcome, happy hounding!
Awesome love your videos l live in Louisiana l been finding agats in my driveway I takes walks and l find agats everywhere it awesome now that l know what to look for thank you for sharing your knowledge show time LOL
Hi Dlb and thank you for the cudos and thank you for watching. We're so glad that it helped you in Identifying cool rocks and agates. Take care and may you also find lots of agate treasures
Hi Ray thanks for looking! May upufind your treasure today. If you'd like to see more all of our videos are available on our TH-cam playlist or on our website...agateenchantment.com Happy Holidays 😊
Hi Happyrockhounder, you are so kind and the fact that you picked up something new to explore in your rockhounding adventures, makes both of us smile...thank you for your wonderful comment. It means a lot to us especially this evening! Stay healthy and well
I am now a fan of Jasper, found a Jasperized coral in a Montana river that has been my go to for petrified wood and agate. The Jasperized wood is amazing here too.
Hi Jeremy, sounds like you found a treasure spot or as rockhounds say a "honey hole". Congratulations! I too love jasperized wood, it's amazing the colors nature produces from minerals & time then into rock.
Really enjoyed watching and learning about Agates. I just started searching for them after going to the best beach I have found in Grand Marias, Michigan last week where the beautiful rocks are everywhere. Thanks much for sharing :)
The colored stone at the last of the video are (in order): a multihued jasper, a couple of pieces of petrified wood, a crinoid stone, & a tan jasper. I hope that helps! 😁
@@agateenchantmentrockwizard5969 thank you sorry I didn't get to those pictures yesterday. Pretty sure I have an agate of some type. Also have a composite stone that I'm debating on trying to slice, or saw a video of a guy separating for stones on inside. Third is wierd orange in color with silver specs. Hope to get you pictures soon.
Oh my!I love you guys.I just subscribe your videos,and I love what you all sharing some of your ideas.I am from Washington State and been hounding rocks start this year but, I never found any agates.Still learning.Thank you both for this video.Merry Christmas.
Hi Villa and thank you so much for your wonderful comment! Welcome to a new and fun hobby. If you'd like we are premiering a brand new show tomorrow Sunday Dec 13th at 10am come and chat with us live. Rockhound Thanksgiving - It's our Anniversary th-cam.com/video/hnAUnYpDSAU/w-d-xo.html
I thought Quartz was Agate..🤦🏻♀️...I even taught my kids that. Lol Oh well, now I know! Thank you so very much! We live in Upper Michigan, so Lake Superior shores is my Go-To Agate places..
Thank you for your comments. We're so glad to hear your passing on learning to your kiddos! Check out this video to learn more about chalcedony, quartz and agates. Definition of Agate th-cam.com/video/whF-saosHcE/w-d-xo.html God bless you and all your family and we hope you all stay healthy!
Hi Rookie Rockhound and thank you for the cudos!....It's really amazing the results you can get when you connect with the right company. Who will #1 let you in and #2 a company that is buzy enough to have a high turnover in river rock. Give it a try!
Thank you! To answer your question, we cut them, drill them polish them, tumble them and make jewelry out of the really good finished rocks. We have dozens of video's on finding, ID, tumble etc...By all means check them out and thank you so much for watching both SeaJay and I appreciate you!
Damn was this an interesting video. There's one of these rock places in the Coachella Valley in California. I'm going to check it out. I hope I have as much luck as you. Thank you so much for this.
Hi, Jason, the best & quickest way it to learn how to read geo-topographical maps, learn what minerals are locate in your area from sites like minedat.com. Also joining a local gem & mineral group to learn from some older rockhounds on what to look for ... Another easy way is to Google minerals found in your area.... I hope this helps ... Have fun & Find your treasure today!!
Hi Marlaina, ...but every region has it's own special qualities, rocks and minerals to be found and then there's the rock shows where you can score as well. Have a super day!
If you are asking if we buy stones, no, we don't... if you are looking for an ID on what type of crystal you have, please feel free to send us an email that is listed in the description below the video ... thanks for watching!
Only if you are willing to spend $$$, labor & time to create a beautiful piece of wearable art, then sell it for a loss of 1/3 of what you paid out ... oh, and not worry about getting paid for your labor or time! Lol!! And do that for about 5 to 7 years, or however long it takes for you to get your name out there & get a reputation for your art. Seriously, this is a labor of love & passion, creating a beauty out what others see as "just a rock"! That is why we both have other jobs to pay the bills & pay for the supplies! Thank you for watching our content!!
Wow I love rocks lol my wife thinks I'm all dam crazy in my head I can spend all day just checking mine out it's so small and it's really nothing I have but wow I can spend hours on my stoep and she'll get so mad hehe all I do is try make them beautiful sure hope hope. I find something really cool someday. Can I send you guys pics and maybe you can help identify most for me that will be cool
Johnathan, I am always willing to help id rock as best as I can from a photo .... the pics will need to be in focus, in natural light, but not necessarily bright light. I can't say I will be 100% correct because id'ing some rocks take all the senses ... sight, touch, hearing, smell, & yes, taste. There are some tests you can do to eleminate rocks ... the Mohs Hardness test, the Streak test, the Specific Gravity test, & of course, the research test (of which you have complete step one, asking for help). You can send the pics to the email in the description. Thanks for watching our content & commenting! It helps our channel and hopefully we can help you in return.
That's unfortunate 😕, do you have landscaping places you could offer to pay per bucket for? Then search their rocks for agates or cool rocks 🪨 How about private land, is it still prohibited?
Well that is a bit encouraging, i hope you can visit the sea. What Sea do you live by? What country are you from? Thank you for your time and comments 🙏😊
@@agateenchantmentrockwizard5969 ı am from turkey and ı live near aegean sea and have acaess to the sea of marmara but ı dont think there will be any goods here what do you think?
@@ayseipektasdemir7991 Is that near Istanbul? The Marmara islands proper in the southwest, off Kapıdagı Peninsula; these have granite, slate, and marble that have been quarried since antiquity-hence the sea’s name (Greek marmaros, “marble”). Not sure if these reach to the coast or not but the sea itself has a fault line running through it and that's always good news for rockhounds. As we discovered in our recent trip (through Idaho to Montana) granite can be so beautiful 😍. Maybe you could do some exploring along the coastline and lets us know what you find. Take some good quality close up pictures of some of the rocks, in good light and send them to us in our email. (Our email is in the description of all our videos). We'll help you ID them. The Bostancı shore in Istanbul shows some real potential along it's shoreline and now that Turkey has cleaned up most of the seasnot, the visibility should be much better in the coastal sea area. Good luck and let us know what you find. Be well our new friend

This is definitely a place for me to go when the temps get down to where I won’t throw up with the heat(104 today). In other words low 70’s.
love this!
