Dominik and Jennifer, thank you for this amazing coverage of the beauty that is found in this location. May the Lord continue to bless all of your journeys ahead!🌻🙏💯
We love Flash Mt!!! We dug so many unique pieces! I have one tabby I call the Ice Cube, its that big! Its about time to go back come Spring, its been 2 yrs and your video makes me want to go NOW, lol!
Beautiful! Bucket list spot for sure. Around where I am in the northeast was a lot of small crystal clusters, druze, plates etc. Getting put on to the awesomeness of the textile gun was a revelation for sure. Definitely got soaked as I learned how to use it, but then I am also the person that just tries to figure things out myself instead of reading directions. Super sweet and special area and specimens. ☮
Great video Dominik and Jennifer! Curious about the cluster at 13:03 it looks like it has blue on the right side...is that blue cookeite? I can't wait to go back and visit Flash Mountain again, I love it there (just not the hike up, LOL).
It’s the name given to this particular type of crystal and it relates to the way these are suspended in a semi-liquid solution - thus solution quartz. This causes many fine needle crystals, double and extra terminations and haystack formations. Not all crystals in this video are solution quartz, but this is the only accessible location where you can find them today. Solution quartz was originally discovered at the Jeffery Quarry. The Arkansas Geological Commission published a lengthy report on this location and the special formations: “Spectacular quartz crystals, with abundant rectorite and cookeite, also pyrite, sphalerite, galena, rutile, apatite, ankerite, and chlorite, occur at the Jeffrey Stone Company's quarry near North Little Rock, Arkansas. These minerals form veins in the Mississippian Jackfork Sandstone, but they are also suspended in semiliquid fissure fillings; on drying, the semiliquid becomes rectorite.” Here is the link to the full report: www.geology.arkansas.gov/docs/pdf/publication/bulletins/bulletin-21-quartz-rectorite-cookeite-jeffrey-quarry.pdf

Yes absolutely. Where are you located at? Every state has some rockhounding opportunities and most have mines that are open to the public. You will find crystals/fossils/minerals if you go to the right spot!
Thanks for watching till the very end! Appreciate that 🤙 Well, a multitude of reasons: I used to live on Hawai’i and it will forever hold a special place in my heart, being and consciousness. I admire their traditions, the land and wisdom the indigenous people of the islands carry. So this is a small part that makes it into the videos 😉 Also the native language is really beautiful and high vibration. When broken down, the literal translation of the phrase translates to [Alo] meaning ‘presence’ and [Hā] meaning ‘breath.’ Together the word aloha translates to ‘The presence of breath’ or ‘breath of life’. Isn’t that beautiful? Queen Lil’uokalani once said, “Aloha is to learn what is not said, to see what cannot be seen and to know the unknowable.” A - Always L - Love O - Over H - Hate A - Always
Always awesome seeing your stuff! Keep it up! (:
Thank you Lance!

Textile gun is a game changer for mineral prep.

We call them haystack crystals
Those are the best!
