Wow those are really nice! Great finds. I find fire agate similar to that in central AZ, but it does look a little different. I didnt know there was bubbly chalcedony in utah. Very cool!
@@tappintheamericanwest2781 we are in Greenville NC. Im literally counting the days. Ive been waiting for this for years. And we are building and i get a brand new workshop fitted with some new dream tool along with my trusty old lapiday tools.
@@tappintheamericanwest2781 and i want to be better at making videos. But it can be hard acknowledging my ADHD and then dealing with that and some social anxiety as well. I seem to have no filter. Lol
It's unfortunate there are no thin layers of limonite or goethite within those pieces, because they look so close to being fire agate. In any case though, they are still beautiful.
Great video Shane! I'm a new subscriber as of today and wish you best of luck reaching 1,000 subscribers. Do you ever come down to Florida? Would love to take you kayaking to islands 5 minutes from my home looking for Florida fossils. Places with beaches full of sharks teeth, ancient horse, gator, mastodon, mammoth, turtle and other fossils just walking the deserted beaches surrounded by mangrove tunnels and tons of wildlife. I absolutely love Southern Utah and travel there every summer to rockhound. Such a completely different landscape than Florida and I don't believe I will ever tire of it. Would love to join you sometime or if you could even just recommend some areas to explore I would appreciate anything you could do to point me to some new hunting grounds. Happy hunting!
It's Will from the group. Perhaps we should do a collab sometime, could be fun and good for both our channels. I haven't been actively making videos but I plan to start again this year.

Can you sure exactly where that is? I live up in Utah Valley, but I am coming down to Saint George!
I'll pay shipping. How about sending me 2 pieces.
I can not wait to get to Utah. We are moving into Cedar City in June. Let the You Tube adventures begin. 🎉
Where are you coming from?

Where in utah is this? If you share 😊
What do you use these stones for?
Where do you live in Utah?
It is called Carnelian
Shane, do you sell any of your rocks? If I lived closer to St. George you could use my equipment for cutting and polishing. Carry on 😊
You are finding what people call fire agates. Do any of them have colors that show up below the surface?
In my 59 years I have found exactly ONE arrowhead, and yes I kept it. Never seen rocks that amazing either. Very jealous.
They're actually really common in certain volcanic areas of the southwest. Just have to be in the right geology to find them.
I have never seen the size that you are finding them in!
What cool finds
Thanks for sharing. Don't tell me, but I don't recognize the area. Cool finds
You’re welcome
I wish I lived close because I'd love a piece of this
A better quality of this video will upload in a hour according to TH-cam
