UNBALIEVABLE Gem Stone with a Perfect Ocean Scene.
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- Back harvesting more ocean picture stone from my quarry. And in this video we find the most perfect ocean scene in one rock, and start changing i from a beautiful rock into a beautiful gemstone for jewelry. And of course explaining the process along the way. Selecting the scene, slabbing the rock, scribing the shape, and using a trim saw to start cutting out the shape. I will be showing how to make it into a cabochon in a later video.

This video is produced by Dan Hurd, Prospector, Miner, Teacher and RUclipsr, as part of his RUclips channel based on educational videos about gold mining, gold panning, prospecting, rock hounding, and mineral collecting.
#goldpanning #thefinders #findinggold
personally Mr. Hurd, I very much enjoy when you go after different minerals, silver, platinum, garnets....there are 1000's of gold panning videos out there, but I learn more watching you go after other minerals
Yeah, I'd love to see some silver as well!
Dan, you are the Bob Ross of prospecting videos. Keep up the great work.
Thank you!
We love your smiles and your delightful Wife who finds the perfect stones. Enjoy your adventures with her. God bless you both.
Molly and I have most certainly earnt our subscription today! What you taught her is so valuable. As her mom I thank you so much! *Hugs* Wendi - retired Lt Cdr, Royal Navy.
Dan I almost hated seeing the scene cut down so small even though each of those you cut were still really nice. Some longer length framed pieces with desktop picture mounts (for table ornaments) I'd think could be very desirable. They sure are beautiful unique rocks and preserving a nice long swath for a few pieces that can be wall hung or placed on mantles or tables I feel could be very desirable. Love you have this claim and am excited to see what you can do in the future with your specimens!!
Precisely what I was thinking. Why geometrically frame what the universe has already made beautiful.😁
You are so kind and positive! Love it!
I wish I could go out and find all these beautiful pieces of nature...
It's amazing what nature has created
Yes you can bro! Buy a geology road map and explore your state/ territory
@@Danhurd I have long followed your gold panning videos and I am so glad for you to have found this great cash producing area that might out perform your gold. Im in the valley below retired here and yes it is beautiful
Breaker 05 you can buy yourself a field guide for your area! I live in southern Oregon so I have the book called “ Gem trails of Oregon“. Around here we pick up agate and a variety of different jaspers. We also find petrified wood and fossils! You just have to get yourself a book! Look up rockhounding books for your area.
@@scarekr0w1 that sounds so cool, I am definitely going to check that out!! Thanks 👍
I was hoping for an OPS start to finish series. They're beautiful. Thanks for another great Sunday video, Dan & Mrs!
that ocean picture stone is so beautiful what a lucky find!!
Hi Dan, just want to say, I very much enjoy your videos, I live in the states and with all the crazy, I love your joy. Thank you for giving me a moment of getting back to life and joy. My father used to prospect in Arizona, and I used to go with him, brings back great memories.
The gold videos are fun but I'm really enjoying the mineral hunts. The scenery is my favorite part. Just gorgeous.
I'm excited to see your process around creating cabachons from these stones!
Thanks for making my Sunday a great one Dan
You bet!
I stop for sasquatch ..... Another great learning video. Thanks Hurd Fam.
Well, I am a rockhound and a worrier. I believe harvesting these beautiful rocks will be better for your heart... Unless you find a huge vein of gem quality Jadeite. Cause that is GREEN GOLD, enough $$$$$$ and excitement to cause a heart to flutter. Thank you for sharing this awesome video and I am excited about you getting the claim at the last place you went too.
Thanks! I'm taking it easy and Dayna is watching me like a hawk.
Now I understand the reason why you and Dena comeback in this area, so beautiful rock's , landscape and bigfoot. Off course some more 💰 ✌
Very cool to watch the process here. Love that ocean jasper.
Beautiful stones! Beautiful country!
I love love love you and your family!! So good to see families together!
Great gems. I always enjoy seeing the amazing blue color in these.
The blue is incredible in some pieces
Thanks Dan for showing some more of our beautiful province and its beautiful resourses.
Just got into rock hounding, I make jewelry, and realized I’m literally walking on my materials!!! I LOVE doing wirework scenes on rocks. I’m in BC- SOOOO much to find here. If you see an old Honda minivan following you, pay it no mind... 😉😁
Beautiful doesn’t do the scenery proud, I would say awesome countryside and awesome rocks to boot and a beautiful wife too. Love and blessings to you and your family 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️🇦🇺
Thanks to the Sasquatch statue I now know where you are! My mother lives in the town right below that mountain on the BC side!
Gday from Australia Dan, you sure do have some gorgeous stones there. I love all your videos, whether gold or gems, and I have learned some stuff along the trail as well. You sure have some beautiful country up there too. Stay safe and keep up the great work mate. 👍👍👍👍
That beautiful stone around the 16:00 mark, the scene on the right side, I would have used the whole thing and gone with a triangle shape. Some beautiful pieces lost, waves & sea meeting sky. I almost screamed at the video. But it's yours to do with of course. Just my opinion!
yeah
Dan I know you are a gold guy but right now you are doing my favorite part of mineral and rock hunting. This Ocean Picture Stone is just incredibly beautiful. I would like to buy one larger rock for my aquariums, mid quality. If one ever shows up on your website I will look at purchasing it.
My parents used to take us through the interior of BC many decades ago, rockhounding. I grew up on Vancouver Island that had some cool stuff around the areas.
I do enjoy your shows, I enjoy your enthusiasm.
You are a teacher someone said? What do you teach? I wish I had a teacher like you back in the 70's. Blessings to you all.
Im a rockhound. I love the mineral videos. I left northern California for southwest Utah 2 years ago, so my gold diggin has ceased... for now...
Really looking forward to the cabachon video. Those are going to be glorious.
Glad you found something easy to harvest and profitable! Well deserved, keep up the excellent videos.
I really enjoy the picture stone videos. I enjoy variety. can't wait for the next video on finishing up the shape and polishing.
Those stones are beautiful! 😍😍😍
Dan, I just wanna say I love what you do. Take care and be safe. Hugs from Japan.
Thank you!
This material is absolutely GORGEOUS!!!!!!!
It really is!
This is what iam waiting for.... cutting & polished that beauty stone🏖️
That’s amazing. Like a painting...
They really are
Dan I have a few hundreds acres of Goldfields that were worked over 1871 till 1910 with hudreds of thousands of onces removed. The largest nugget found recently was around golf ball size in one of the "Mullock Heaps" I enjoy watching and get lots of tips from your videos.
Thanks for showing more of the lapidary process. I love cutting slabs, but i have no access to a large saw currently. So, it's fun to watch!
Hi Dan looks like your having a wonderful day wish I was there too the mountains the trees I really miss that, I used to live up in northern California now I'm in Bad LA 😩 but hopefully I'll be able to go back up there again 😁👋 one day 👍
thanks for showing the process of producing cabochons for jewelry etc .absolutely fascinating .love the family photo at 10.05!
Most specimens inclusions are bad OPS inclusions are what make us good! TY for the video Dan.
Could we possibly see the micro blaster????
Wonderful video Dan and Fam.
Thanks for showing how you cut the slabs. Interesting!
Bro those rocks are sure blue, but look at her eyes 11:08.
That is the most beautiful blue I have seen all video!
Love the rocks n minerals you show n teach about!!
Hello Dan every time I get on U Tube and I’m looking to see what to Watch there you are Dan Hurd 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀💚
Hey Dan. I hope that you do get to see this note. You have definitely earned my subscription many times over all already. I always enjoy watching your channel very much! Knowing that you are practically in my back yard, I always feel better after watching each one. Even more than that, I love your on-screen personality too. It is very refreshing indeed!!! Always rooting for you here, and I am proud of you guys!. So, here is to hoping that you do strike it rich, because as the Lord knows, I can't imagine there are many people that can "Play-At-It" any harder than you guys do!!!!
Cheers,
Alley
It's pretty in person. I hadn't figured on as much translucency as it had. Slabbing mine soon.
I love this ocean picture stone stuff or whatever it’s called and I love the videos you make about it please make more
I find pretty much all your videos to be entertaining and informative no matter the main subject. Love the variety. Keep them coming.
you would get big blocks out if you cut first with a sthil saw then chisel the bed seam with a bolster chisel. even if you drilled in lines a few inches deep and close together you wouldn't shatter the rocks with a bolster or even a pitching tool. Using a point or a narrow cold chisel doesn't work well unless you just want to dig a hole. great program and great stones.
Beautiful
Looking forward to seeing a video on you making a cab!
Dan that really is a stunning gemstone.
Great videos Dan thanks. Harvesting the land beautiful.
Beautiful stones. I can see why jewelry makers an artist would be buying it up as fast as you can get it on your store page
This is going from a gold prospecting channel to a Gem channel real quick
What a wonderfully interesting stone.
Hi dan awesome as always great views always enjoy I think it's time Dana gets her trip to Australia I think she has earned it .take care of your self be safe
They really looking very nice.
Just thinking that ocean picture stone would look so great under the birdbath fountain. Classiest birds in the neighbourhood. Thanks Dan. Looking forward to seeing the "boulder."
Just beautiful stone's!
I would love ❤️ some of that beautiful rock!
What you want is plug wedges and feather shims or expansive cement which you put in pre-drilled holes and then it expands and cracks the rock.
Nice job Dan and Dana. Beautiful country. ♥️♥️♥️😁
Dan i gotta tell you it is so nice they way you ask people to hit like botton. I hate it when people tell me before i even see video to hit like botton. You are kind about it and do it in a good way so i thank you for that !! You are the kinda guy that would be a pleasure to talk to in person it seems to me you do a great job with your videos explaning things and you are honest about what you know or dont know !! I wish the best for you and safety out there in the wild !! I love the rocky mountians i live 60 miles into kansas so im not far from denver . Love going there to see mountians !! I always wanted to pan for gold just because it would be fun but my health sucks now, back and neck and now hips. Lol crazy world !! You are a great guy keep up the good work !!
For anyone confused...Bigfoot was the taller guy, Dan was the shorter one lol.
Ha!
Time to start blasting!
everytime your videos come up i get excited. thanks Dan
they should call it glacier stone! beautiful. i see p.e.i in every stone!
that large piece at 5:15 looks like a great water fall
Good evening Dan. Excellent video. THANK YOU for showing the cutting at the club - very good. We've got similar saws at our club and we've just got our shop setup again after it being in storage for years. It would be VERY helpful to MANY clubs out there if you would do some videos on how to use this equipment and other club gear. Your education background is obvious, especially with your older shop class videos on how to make equipment, and you'd be amazing at creating how to use videos for these saws, etc. Think about it eh. :)
nice cuts of rock .thank you for sharing
That ocean picture stone is equally as beautiful as the Okanagan scenery! Loving these ocean picture stone videos Dan 🌊
Thanks!
It looks like aqua marine.. Great for jewelry..
The Okanagan country is so beautiful. I miss it. Those stones are awesome Dan, I think my grandson would love one to add to his collection.
Great video thanks.
I meant the Nicola Valley ha ha.
BC is a beautiful province
We love the gemstone videos so so much
If you displayed a bunch of those on chains, you could make a great unique wind chime. Great video. Keep digin'!
It's fabulous i wish I could have this beauty one day 😍
Thank you Dan.
Dan, try etting some stone mason's feather (wedges and shims). With your cordless drill and a set of feathers, you may manage to get some larger stone. They are available on ebay for just a few ££££ / $$$$ s.
Lovely couple make me jealous. Cheers from Indonesia.
cant wait to see the finished product,from start to finish kool video
This is your best video yet !!! See drop the "I'm filming" voice and the earn your sub thing ..... = great video with the info we want. Really a good video nice job Dan and wife don't stop creating. 👍
Wish i could give this comment more likes!
A diamond blade making a three inch cut across may help in not destroying the premium stone. I put one on my 7 inch skillsaw, the stuff I cut just amazes me. With the help of a water hose. Load up your generator.
Looks a lot like Larimar, a blue type of Pectolite. The blue color could be from copper. Fun videos. Keep them coming.
That stone will be good in my living room ty
sweet deal for the slab process
Wow that is so gorgeous. I have been into the crystal and specimens channels lately. I would love a piece of that. I was trying to do that with soap
Wow! Thank you for doing this video. I can't wait to see how the cabochons look when finished. Actually, I suggested you pursue this topic of showing how these Ocean Picture Stones look after they have been cut and finished into the final gem. This is new to me. I had never heard of this type of gemstone until your previous video. Thank you so much for doing this!
Those rocks are so beautiful and thxs love your videoes
That stone is so awesome! Lovin it!!
I wish I was there I live in boring Texas. keep up the good work love your videos.
Thanks!
So very cool that you are just reaping a harvest straight from the earth. Guessing a few air powered tools would make your harvest much more effective and efficient. Thanks for sharing with us what the next step in the process. Very interesting. As Always, May God Bless you and yours!
Brilliant demonstration! 👍
Awesome awesome awesome
I enjoy the gem hunting videos. Keep doing them, please!
Beautiful stone, wish I could buy a small piece for my son for the healing properties, love watching you 👍♥️
Love those stones !
Tip: Cyanoacylic glue (Super glue) and powdered stone (Dremel sanding band) seal & repair the flaws & maximizes usage of the stone. If done right the bond can be stronger than the stone itself!
