    It was great for me to see the diamonds put together and back in the rock they were found in Bryan. Breaking rocks is hard work but worth it to see the shining crystals hidden away inside them. Matrix is a bundle of energy and fun bless him, the rock in the bottle was a great idea. Thank you for taking us along with you sweetheart, I loved every minute. Take care my friend, good luck and happy hunting Mary-Ellen UK

    I think your dog is so adorable. He must be a puppy. How do the crystals form inside of the rock? Are they made of carbon like diamonds? Exactly what are they made of? Maybe they formed in loose material and over time that material hardened to a rock state. Could you educate me on how this happens as well as the amethyst ? Where do you find these places to mine crystals?
