Rockhounding Calcite Crystals in Maryland

- I found some amazing calcite crystals on a recent rockhounding trip in Maryland. The spot produced some beautiful crystals in colors ranging from white to red. I added some macro pictures of the crystals at the end of the video. It was a fun day filled with beautiful crystals, cicadas and a nice thunderstorm.
I had just spent the day hounding quartz crystals in Pennsylvania (thus the few slip ups early in the video) and decided to stop at this site on the way out. I'm glad I did. This site produced some of the best crystals I have found in Maryland.
I hope you enjoy the video.
Thank you!

Where at in Maryland is this? I live in the north eastern part of MD and would love to take my kids out to look for some!
I found a quartz occurance in Towson md along the loch raven reservior so far I've got about 50 crystals along with some excellent galena,garnets,blck tormaline and serpentine
That's great !!! I live nearby.. I will have to check it out. It's a good size place I haven't spent much time down that way. I always head to Pa. It's amazing up there....
I've been to over 50 parks. It's an addiction.
Are the crystals a nice size ? Happy hunting😉
What part of Maryland? I'm from the area! Great video!!!
Thanks! That was in western Maryland in Allegany County.
I’m going to dc for a family thing and want to rockhound if I get free time do you have any recommendations
I live in Central Maryland and am so interested in rock hounding but I can never find minerals. Is there any place you could recommend. Also I really am looking for agates. Very little information on Maryland rockhounding.
I also live in Maryland. I always find myself going to Pa. The Parks and waterways Are Amazing? I've been to over 30 parks between Maryland and PA.
It is hard finding good specimens.
I always look for crystals,amethyst, geodes,fossils and Indian artifacts. I've found many Indian artifacts when I was not looking for them. Many of them I didn't know they were Indian artifacts until 15 years later when I learned more about them. Found hundreds of garnets. Still looking for the mother load. But I don't think it will be in Maryland. I llivr North Central Maryland, of the PA Line....
Go along the bay area where there are lots of hiking trails along creeks. Creeks can be the best way to get quartz especially.
I’m in Baltimore so you can imagine how hard it is
@@LHRtv1 I was watching a video of a youtuber in mid md at an old quarry was pulling out geodes . He said he's found softball size geodes there. He even gives the town. You probably know the town. Very popular in civil war. But I've never tried the spot.
@@chriss8206do you remember what town or who the TH-camr was?
Where is this?
when you going to add some stuff for your last trip out west
I am working on some videos now. It was an amazing trip and was nice to meet you, your wife and Captain Jack at Hampton.
Im from allegany county md, i found some crystals on the moutain. I was told u cant find them here. It is a crystal form. About 2 inch.. also lots of rocks i dug up that were like geode looking. Nkt round. New to rocks fossils minerals and so on
Steph! its weez
thats a good trip , so many rocks to choose from , really cool stuff , subscribed you
Thanks! It was indeed a fun trip!
I live on the eastern shore of md where and what kind of stuff can I find
Your side of the bay has galena,a lead sulfide mineral used as lead ore,and in md the galena can contain 2-5% pure silver
You can make jewelery out of it
where in maryland did you find this?
Where in Allegheny? I'm not too far from there.
Where in Maryland are you?
