    I have never seen such a poor photo shopped picture to get people to watch a video. Rubies & Sapphires rarely come in large sizes as you display. If they did they would start becoming worthless, but pretty gems.

    @joshuarhoads2888 2 года назад

    Those are some cool finds, but people should know that most of those rocks and minerals didn't come from NC. They call it "native dirt" or "soil" because the only thing that is native to the area, in those piles, is the dirt/soil... Some of the quartz and garnets might be from the area, but all the corundum (ruby and sapphire) and kyanite is likely imported into the country and salted into the dirt piles.

    • @joshuarhoads2888
      @joshuarhoads2888 2 года назад
