The first videos of yours that I watched were of you hunting apatite crystals. That was the first I knew that pulling crystals out of the dirt was a thing that anybody could do if they knew where to look. It was really my introduction to rockhounding, which opened up a whole new world of fun! This takes me back. Thank you, meMiner!
so cool
Is this site still open??
Thanks for the good information. Now, that's my kind a cup! Thanks for sharing and woof to the pups. Be happy, safe and stay healthy 😷⚒
Your dog's look so nice! thanks for sharing
As usual Greg, you never cease to wet my apatite. Another great video.
My wife has been chomping at the bit to go hounding. So this year we'll probably start In Wyoming then end up in Montana.
Thank's so much for the video and keep on hounding pal. Until the next one.
Sounds like you and her are going to have a wonderful time.
Green leaves and a tee shirt.......happy spring Greig!
Highly valuable rock crystal find, great find, sir. Greetings from agate hunters from Indonesia.
I will be agate hunting this summer
Classic Meminer video, out crystal hunting, with the mutts, some nice finds,, can you do a video of any jewellery you make from your haul,, it's wet my appetite 😂 great viewing, thanks for sharing
great watching thanks
I REALLY like your videos!
Would love to spend my retirement in ontario doing just what your doing!
I was wondering if you have made a video on your favorite metal detector and how to use them?
Thanks for the great videos, always looking forward to the next one!
I have a few detectors, but no video about my favourites. The best detector is the one (somewhat modern) designed for that application and at the end of the day the one you know how to use. ;-)
Another fantastic adventure wow sweet finds they all found. Daisy and Shelby leading they way awesome didn’t matter how deep the water is lol what a haul you got can’t wait till this snow stays away and it dries up some . Thanks for helping withe itch lol
You need a Garden 3 gallon handpump sprayer tank and wand! Would make for a great cleaner, inspector. Missed your videos! Thank you for sharing!! Love and blessings to you and yours!
That would be nice to have there but heavy to carry.
How much fun is that! Thanks!
oh yeah forgot to mention that piece of titanite he found lucky guy is shinny like brand new and they are alluring or hypnotizing to look into them they are like a mirror ,the ones at beryl pit are all scratch up,thanks again
Thanks for taking us along with you 👍❣
Good afternoon Gregg it’s good to see you out and about looking for rocks again and minerals Wow, that stuff looks awesome in the wall mighty nice looking get it my friend dig it out of there😂❤
Beautiful sharing 👍
Your passion is contegious, thank you ! I wish there was more accessible places in the province of Québec... Love your videos!
Lots of good collecting in PQ. I haven't collected there, so cannot point you the right direction
Glad you hiked in instead of powering through. Thanks. Hoping to bring the VW instead of the FJ later this year. Looks like the puppies had a great day with you again. Lucky pups!
It was a hot day, but lots of places for pups to swim. The road is much improved since the forestry company was in there so you car should be fine once things dry out. I considered going across the duck pond, but it was muddy and not a great place to get stuck. Not a bad walk anyway, as long as one has some water on a hot day
@@meMiner I saw what they did last year. Great job. Light footprint through harvest and a killer parking lot now. I like!
Good video and no the area well, always been a popular spot, back twenty five or so years ago when they improved the highway with rock blasting, it was a collectors paradise.
I bet the roads were great
Thank you for the adventure, love to be along? Except for the dirt. I admire your bravery. And endurance. I'm impressed at your knowledge. Keep up the good work! 👍
My jeans went into the garbage when I got home. lol
@@meMiner l would love to have your rags! Really,it makes a good mat for the dogs!
These are SWEET!
sweet edges and definition, who doesnt like a nice undammaged crystal
Magnifique... 😁
We will go !
I went to my favorite molybdenite mine today. After mountain biking.
Collected a few things... nothing close to what you show in your video.
Glad you had a good adventure
Good job ol' boy. I enjoyed it & will takeaway knowledge🤙 ...pretty sure u broke the rules🤫😜 appreciate cha brotha!👍
what rules?
pretty Cool !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks my friend
Was it Daisy or Shelby drinking the Apatite Water? 😂 meMiner :every Vid from you takes me( for a short while ) away from this evil around me. Thank you. All the Best. Marcus from Germany.
That was Daisy this time
awesome cup full they are beautiful ,we know you like apatite crystals but what are you going to do with them ,like a pendant cause they are not good for tumbling or you just like to put them in your jar to look at them like we do ,thanks for sharing.
All that apatite has got me hungry…. Hungry to go rockhounding in Ontario.
It was fun. I am hungry for more. ;-)
I think I’m going to head out there soon. I need a fix lol
Very cool crystal hunt!
Like that black doginitie at 6:21
Sometimes apatite can have a nice fluorescence response in UV. if you have a UV light, A, B or C wavelengths, it might be worth checking if it will react at all.
These ones didn't.
2:02 that’s new. There wasn’t a parking area there in 2017.
So nice to see sweet Daisy! And nice find. Ok, stupid question but, how do these stones shape themselves? On the imperfect host rocks, how do they manage perfectly straight sides?🤷♀️
That's the way they crystallize. Each one has its own habit.
Its the building of molecular structure that causes the crystals to take these dimensions
@@Mr_badjoke thank you 😊
Hey bud. ✌️😊
I found a beautiful crystal inside a stone today the type of crystal I found was like a orange geode there really rare around where I live !
nice
Thanks
Nice crystals..... see Shelby hangs pretty close to you, doesn't she...! =) How is Daisy doing...? =)
They both stay close. Daisy is still a happy dog
Love
Thanks Debs
If you ever need a hand eith camera and wanna show me a little bit of rockhounding id be very down im in the GTA and a Lapidary lol
That would be fun Dylan
I didn't jump straight in this time, I wanted information on what you are looking for and advise everyone to do the same, I wonder if they will get as angry as I did when I found out what they mine it for, nice healthy pot plants at home.
The challenge is probably knowing the exact mineral you are finding, from what I gather there are three types, male, female and trans, oops wrong topic, my bad.
But there are three types that are very similar, apetite, good apetite and frickin hungry , nope wrong again, that's the trouble when you have short term memory loss, you don't know you have short term memory loss because you can't remember.
So, what was I saying, ah yes, well that's what I think anyway, I think, can't really remember.
Unfortunately I'm only going to get worse, lol.
I've been enjoying your videos for a couple of years. Don't know a rock from a stone. But learning! Can the smaller ones be centre drilled to make bracelet beads?
They can be drilled but don't know how long they would survive on a bracelet, especially with a hole in it.
Good point!
its full of snow here still...
There was some snow last week but I bet is gone now
Need a soup ladle. I got an apatite for titanite
That would have worked well. Especially one with a long handle
good stuff Greig. It looks a top spot to spend a day or two..Does the Apatite come in facetable specimens at all?
I have seen some that was faceted and looked wonderful. Not sure how durable because they are relatively soft
@@meMiner interesting..thanks mate
👍
Will those big broken pieces of apatite tumble?
I tumbled some years ago. The really solid pieces came out quite nice but the majority broke up. I did learn that it doesn't take long in a tumbler because they are relatively soft
Hello What color would you call the appetite you found? Oh and is any of your finds gem quality to facet?
Most are green. Apatite can be cut, but it is a relatedly soft stone
Not Going To Just Jump In Your Hand LOL.
True that
Wish I could go on a dig there, but it's bit too far from me
I am lucky. Only a two hour drive for me
@@meMiner Yeah, I'm about three hours south of Vancouver BC.😂
@@jasonsummit1885 I am out that way this summer, but about 19 hours north of Vancouver. ;-)
Couldn't you take a rough piece of apetite and lap all 6 sides down and make it look perfect?
I have never tried that. It might upset some people, as it is no longer "real".
@@meMiner I know it would ruin any value it has as a natural crystal, but just for fun. You have so many of them. Would it bother them if you bought a rough cut diamond and had it cut to propose to your wife??? Same difference.
Anyway, who cares what other people think!!! I respect your decision either way. lolol
@@PabloDiablo682 Good point. And try giving your girl a rough cut diamond. lol
@@meMiner Right...lolo
