    Unfortunately, since people have been posting these hidden gems (location), a large majority of supposed rock hounds.... do not respect the rules of this free collecting area. It was only supposed to be a tailing dump collecting area with boundaries posted everywhere to protect the trees and mother nature. I've been collecting here for years and now the dcr has decided to shut it down due to certain individuals not respecting the land. So please if you go to another public free collecting location feel free to verbally express the rules at each site commonly known as take what you bring in and fill in your holes. Not hard. Unwritten rules of rock hounding. Thanks for taking the time to read this.

      If only I knew those rules beforehand. I mostly surface collected. Never sifted anything in the river. There was no need and I never owned the equipment to do so lol.
      Does that mean specimens from the mine are going to skyrocket in price? 🤣

    Hi There. I just found your video. Are you at the lead mines in Holland/ Fiskdale Massachusetts? I ask because I’ve found lots of different types of garnets in Holland near the old lead mines? If not might I please ask what town you’re in here? I’m in Worcester

    • @DiscoveringMinerals
      @DiscoveringMinerals  Год назад +1

      Hiya!! No this lead mine is out in Easthampton! I see which lead mine you're talking about. Different types of garnets you say? I have found alot of garnets in the surrounding areas, such as in ware, and other towns, but mostly in rock, without any faces or great clarity lol.

      @@DiscoveringMinerals Yes near Sturbridge, Brimfield Fiskdale area. Exactly, Lots of Almandine and Grossular Garnets in some kind of matrix. Some of them are just incredible specimens. I have yet to find any that are perfectly formed or not included in some other mineral rock. I keep my hopes up though that one day I possibly will
