Hiya Greg, awesome video and beautiful cab, that's some beautiful stuff you found while hunting for birds. I hope you have a awesome blessed day. Cya! 😺🐟 out!
A really good find. A beautifully cut pendant. Who doesn't like a bit of Pyrite and Calcapyrite . Thanks for sharing. Those drills can make a really good knife. Be happy, safe and stay healthy. 😷⚒
Yes even crumbling it adds character as being natural state ... I seen another channel in USA that had a template of 4 leaf clover that really looked nice made of precious metals...
Very nice ❤ Hi Professor, I enjoyed it very much. You did a very nice job and it was exceptional. I have to tell you that I have two mines that contain metal, and chalcopyrite, which contain gold, and I used a new method to test gold in copper carbonate, which I realized. The so-called green copper carbonates have high gold by the method of surface melting with the help of proper melting, which melts the gold with nitric acid, or the gold complex with copper or silver appears in the stone. If you would like, I will send you the photo of gold and other melted metals. Thank you for your beautiful video
Your mining expeditions are always so very interesting. The cab material looks super hard to predict and make a perfect cab with, but maybe stabilization will work. It's very nice anyways with the shiny pyrite.
I have had great use of the bike, but have also banged it up a bit. The plastic isn't very forgiving around trees. The nice thing about this ATV is it is a legal 2-up so I can take a passenger without being charged. Also, it has better height clearance than my 400, so I don't get stuck as often. But the thing I really like is the power steering. That said, It almost doesn't fit in the back of my truck whereas the smaller one is easier to transport.
Your mining expeditions are the best. RUclips offered a criminal case in France with the body of a man in a torched car (the dog in the trunk 😢) and a happy widow. A true story... and MeMiner: "Enchanting blue malachite". Guess what ? I watched both, but I started with meMiner. It's interesting because we love malachite, and it's hard to find nice samples here in Canada, like in Brazil, Morocco, or the Democratic Republic of Congo. I find the end result quite impressive. I know of an old copper mine in the Madoc area... near a bike path. I like mountain bike expeditions. There is malachite there. You probably know it. I hope it has not been turned into some kind of reserve, and that the public is allowed to access it. I will go in the spring. XOXO from Ottawa.😁
@@meMiner Mindat. It's a hiking trail apparently... It 's in Hastings county. North of Madoc. I will bike. I can go anywhere "unseen" with my mountain bike. I just take a few tools and collect a minimum of samples. That's what I do in the Gatineau park... where collecting rocks is prohibited. 😁
Loved this episode! Thanks so much for sharing ❤ I was waiting for your metal detector to throw off some higher numbers. It’s so interesting. I’d love to get one but it seems like a whole other world to learn 🤷♀️🤩🤩🤩🤩 Beautiful polish it at end. Loved it! Thanks again for sharing. Love your channel. Stay Crystal 💫 Mari
Nice hunt ,, good finds., did you bag any game or get absolutely side tracked buy the rocks , cab looks fantastic, good soul food but you can't eat it 😃👍 Great vid as always
@@MultiCrackerjacker lol. I was. bird hunting and ended up rockhounding instead. I thought from your comment that maybe you saw an image on the stone that looked like a bird. I didn't want to be rude to say I couldn't see such an image. lol
Hola y felicitaciones por sus hallazgos!! Necesito de su ayuda. Soy de Argentina y para los vasos de rocas solo consigo aqui en mi pais el oxido de aluminio grano 500. Puede ud darme algun consejo como lograr brillo final con otro producto? Gracias y espero pueda responderme
Hola José, ¿Has probado a comprar en Amazon? No estoy muy interesado en este tipo de artículos, pero compré Glass Polish Cerium Oxide 2.5 micras para dar brillo a algunos cristales. También tienen compuestos de diamante un poco más caros. Compuesto de pulido de diamante TechDiamondTools de grano 50 000 de 0 a 0,5 micras. Xoxo from Ottawa 😁
I like :) But I wonder if it isn't worth stabilizing promising but crumbly rocks in resin before cutting. Voids will be filled, excess resin will vanish anyway.
I haven't tried doing that but have the ingredients. I don't mind playing around with these rocks as I plan on going back to collect more. I love the area
I can certainly imagine how much better that would be if it had been stabilized. Being as you found the old miner's pick, based on your experience, how far back would you estimate that area was mined/explored?
Umm, stabilisation is sometimes the best way, clearing out the vugs first is very beneficial plus a soap and scrub before you start, I like mine warm and totally dry before I start, the killer is finding more vugs . Obviously when stabilisation begins you must ensure your horse is not there or its just pointless.
@@meMiner where do you put a horse? Must be stable. Special 6 legged horses are more common now than ever before, if you should doubt the six legged horse think of a horse, two legs at the back and fore legs at the front.
@@stefool Never tested the hardness of chalcopyrite. I always kind of guessed what it was based on the crystallization and iridescent coloring :-) But it makes sense!
I have a question I hope you will answer. If I start rock collecting and panning for gold or even looking for silver on the side of a road. Do I need Prospecting License? It's been hard to find out what the rules are. Don't want a game warden taking my property for this. This is something not talked about on RUclips.
It depends. Are you talking about Ontario? Is side of the road between the road fences? ie. other side of the fence maybe be private property, native land, a park or existing claim. In Ontario, you can collect once per site using hand tools for as much as you can carry for your own use. There are some places that have no collecting signs. You cannot interfere with traffic, so careful where you park.

Cya!
😺🐟 out!
Really nice cab
Lesson for me
Not everything has to be jewelry perfect
Your cab really shows off the minerals
Very nice cab.. you always take us on such interesting adventures.. start to finish.. I like.. have a great day Greig ❤️☮️
Thanks so much
Thanks for sharing the adventure!
Nice finds! I worked in a rock shop in East Lansing as a kid..got to cut/form alot of cabs..so much fun! 🍻
Beautiful finish on the Cab 👌🙌
Colours are extraordinary
Wow! meMiner you are living the dream. Thanks for sharing
All my favourite colours in one cab, I like very much.
Turned out to be absolutely beautiful stone
Me like very much! The cab has lots of character.

One of the coolest cabs i’ve seen. Very nice!
Wow, thanks!
Beautiful cab you got there.
Good job and good to see you 🕊️
Some One Has To Save The Little Rock's.😉👍✌.
Such a gorgeous cab you made there. 😊
Thanks much!
Very nice ❤

I intend on crushing some of the material I brought home and will pan it to see if there is visible gold.
Wow that's lovely to see Tk you 💞💞 👍👍👍
Wow, that is awesome. Looking totally awesome.❤❤
Thanks my friend
Awesome stuff my friend.
I Really enjoy your adventures.
Glad you enjoy it!

Very beautiful experiment!
Beautiful cab. I like!
Thank you very much!
Estava com saudades Meminner...uau
Awesome find my friend...
Thanks 👍
Looks great it does looks so much like turquoise
Lovely work!👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Great video. Love the job you done.
Thank you!
Great location!
I like it there. I also enjoy meeting the other rockhounds that show up.
Hi Greg, Cab looks great and I bet you like your 4wheeler, I find them perfect for covering a lot more ground no matter what you are hunting.
I have had great use of the bike, but have also banged it up a bit. The plastic isn't very forgiving around trees. The nice thing about this ATV is it is a legal 2-up so I can take a passenger without being charged. Also, it has better height clearance than my 400, so I don't get stuck as often.

Beautiful ❤️ I had to chuckle that you go bird hunting with all your rockhounding gear.
I kinda knew the area had potential. I didn't have the hammer and chisel, but my buddy Leo also had some surprises in his backpack. lol
It’s very pretty!!!
Nice work!

I only know one spot in that area and it is on private property. I don't recall a bike path, so you probably know a place that I don't.. Good luck
@@meMiner Mindat. It's a hiking trail apparently... It 's in Hastings county. North of Madoc. I will bike. I can go anywhere "unseen" with my mountain bike.

All of the high numbers that day were junk. I didn't video digging them. You are welcome. ;-)
Nice hunt ,, good finds., did you bag any game or get absolutely side tracked buy the rocks , cab looks fantastic, good soul food but you can't eat it 😃👍
Great vid as always
Sidetracked that day. lol
Oh wow! That is beautiful! And yes, I thought the same thing that it looked like turquoise. And, so, see any birds?💁🏼♀️
Birds? Kinda
Sorry, I thought you said in the intro 9 seconds in, that you were bird hunting🤷🏼♀️. Carry on and make me some buttons😂
@@MultiCrackerjacker lol. I was. bird hunting and ended up rockhounding instead. I thought from your comment that maybe you saw an image on the stone that looked like a bird. I didn't want to be rude to say I couldn't see such an image. lol
Awesome!
if you set it in resin, would it prevent oxidation and allow it to remain that colour? It sure looks nice all shine up like that though.
I haven't played with resin for a long time. Would be fun

Always enjoy your expeditions Greig ! Some great rocks. Sure looks awesome polished up. Did you get lucky to find any traces of gold ?
No gold that I noticed, but I didn't look really hard. I should crush and pan some just to see if any gold is visible.
I can certainly imagine how much better that would be if it had been stabilized. Being as you found the old miner's pick, based on your experience, how far back would you estimate that area was mined/explored?
This place was active nearby about 60 years ago, but I suspect was a while before that
meMiner says . Running to the store to get milk see ya in 20 min. 4 hours later they find him on the side of the road looking at an interesting rock.
Or at the edge of the parking lot. lol
@@meMiner after a light rain. been there done that
me like meMiner.
I know you did a lot of rock hunting, but did you get any birds while you were out?❤❤
Not that day
Omg.....
What's tye difference between normal pyrite and the calchopyrite
They are both sulphides (contain sulphur) and both contain iron, but pyrite is softer and calcho contains copper
@@meMiner Chalcopyrite is softer. Sorry to correct you. 😋
@@stefool Dang. I typed my response too fast. You are absolutely correct. Pyrite is much harder. Thanks for the correction
Umm, stabilisation is sometimes the best way, clearing out the vugs first is very beneficial plus a soap and scrub before you start, I like mine warm and totally dry before I start, the killer is finding more vugs .

@@symonrocks9847 Some of our horses are sent to France for viande chevaline.
@@meMiner woof, woof.
@@meMiner What a shame... We never bought and ate horse meat when we lived in France. It would be like eating dog. I like horses.
New truck?
Yep. The Ridgeline was left in a field for 6 months when I got hurt and rusted underneath from the moisture.
Congrats
How do you test for chalcopyrite?
I had it done with an XRF scanner.
Chalcopyrite is soft ! Pyrite is hard... 6 - 6.5 on Mohs scale.
@@stefool Never tested the hardness of chalcopyrite. I always kind of guessed what it was based on the crystallization and iridescent coloring :-) But it makes sense!
@@stefool Thanks for the correction. You are correct

2nd
The Enchanting Blue Malachite almost/does look like Turquoise Native Americans/First Nations used to make Jewelry..? =)
I have some rough turquoise to cab, that a friend collected in Arizona. It has many of the same colours but is softer. like hard chalk.
@@meMiner Thanks..... just a thought..? Cool.... The Triangle pieces are weird..... =)
Tims sucks so bad now, all the donuts are frozen and the coffee is horrible.
great vid Mrminer , did you take both those Big lumps home with you ?
Yes I did
