Thanks for watching everyone! Hope you all enjoy this video as much as we enjoyed making it for y’all! I just want to point out, before you criticize the fee or mine operators, consider that the mine is offering this as a service to serious rockhounds and that this is a very special opportunity. I much rather have the option of paying whatever amount to experience a pocket dig than to not have a pocket dig at all. Also take into consideration the tremendous operating costs at this mine and a fair and good pay for your tour guide and other workers involved. I think we can all agree what a blessing for the public to have this place open for your very own dig!!! Happy digging everyone!
Good Find, Guys. But....Just Quartz....No Pyrargyrite,No Samsonite 😂, No Argyrodite....and so on and .....US - "modern Tradition"... Money Rulz??? S.cks
I live in the Mount Ida area and Avant is one of my favorite places to dig thru tailings. 25.00 per day . And you keep EVERYTHING you find . Very affordable. I always find crystals. I have found everything from small jewelry points to larger points that barely fit in a cup holder. Small cluster of points to larger yard rocks with crystal pockets. Most crystal there are glass clear . If you can put it in your vehicle it’s yours . I have never been disappointed at Avant . Avatar mine is just as good . Same price 25.00 and you keep EVERYTHING you find . At both places you can dig within 100 yards of your vehicle. Keep rockin!!👍😎
I have heard lots of good things about avant’s tailings area on fisher and I will head up there myself soon again. I have not been to avatar since the new management, thanks for the info! Happy digging, friend!
@@coreenaburke5378 both places are GREAT !! You will get very dirty and the red soil stains everything., so wear old clothes and shoes . You will also need something to dig with . I like to dig with the hand held garden tool that has 3 fingers on it . A cultivator I think it’s called . Also make sure to eat at Dees Deli in Mount Ida, deli sandwiches and Cajun food . Awesome food at reasonable prices. I hope you have a great time in Arkansas!! Keep rockin!!👍😎
The clarity of the crystals at Fisher Mountain are amazing. I've only dug the tailings but I'm planning on doing a pocket dig soon. Awesome work my friend!
Thanks Chris! Yes the quality is top notch there. I actually even just noticed that I also got a few ghost phantoms! All the miners that work there are super kind and helpful too.
@@CrystalsofArkansas I love that you are making more and more videos. From the little bit of time that I have been doing it, I know it's hard to be regular with shooting, editing and uploading them. Looking forward to next week's content!!
Thanks Joe! It is very time consuming, not sure if I can keep it up, but I’ll definitely be posting more regularly! I always appreciate hearing from you on all the platforms. Means a lot to me!
I don’t think I would like the evaluation, but 1000$ is definitely a fair price. You could easily make that back and more selling them individually at shows and online, and still have crystals left over.
I enjoy your videos and your outlook on being able to dig in virgin pockets! How exciting! I stopped in at your crystal shop and absolutely loved it. It’s a must stop for any rockhound! Wishing you health, wealth and happiness going forward!
Hello Domonique I want to thank you for all the info in your videos. I am coming to Arkansas in a few weeks and have private digs at Fisher mountain and at Twin creek mine with my 13 year old son. We have dug for hirkermire diamonds but n New York and loved it. This year we are looking forward to Arkansas. I would like to take you out to dinner while we are there for all the info you shared in your vids. We really enjoyed your RUclips channel over all the others. We have one free day to dig other than the private digs any suggestions??
I love it!!! I haven't been anywhere but the Wegner Crystal mine. Looks like I have other mines to try out. Thanks so much for all of your information and guidance.
Thank you called to book a dig just like yours. Your channel is one of my favs on youtube, thank you for all your work and for counting over a 1000 points ahahah
Wow, just watched a Dan Hurd video where he just went to the same place haha. I wanna go here so bad, the most beautiful crystals come out of there my goodness. Thanks for sharing your dig with us!
Aloha @CrystalsofArkansas I'm Aloha Joe, formally of Big Island. I moved to the Ouchita Mountains a couple years ago specifically to live in the woods and look for shiny rocks. I had two heat strokes in the first two weeks of being here and another last summer. It took some time to recover so after all this time I started crystal hunting last week. I was excited to find a channel called Crystals of Arkansas run by folks that said Aloha! I live less than 10 miles from three mines. I would love a chance to join your Ohana and learn from you; and also mine with you. :) I am looking to go to Avatar this weekend if you would like to meet up! Mahaloa Nui Loa. Aloha Kei Akua. Malama Pono Aina.
Aloha brother! Welcome to the Ouachitas! I moved here from south Kona in 2008 to start an organic farm and homestead. I miss my Hawaii ohana and the beautiful aina, it’s good to hear you are here! Let’s connect sometime. I will be doing some traveling the next few weeks but get in touch via Facebook or Instagram and we can dig together sometime. Avatar is on my list, so that would be super fun! Aloha and malama aina!! 💚🌈
@@CrystalsofArkansas Amazing video,incredible samples all, whatever I say will be a little bit,congratulations!! I always wish you even better successes like the one you shared with us!! Have a nice follow-up and be careful!!
Excellent video. Would you mind sharing how much you paid for your dig? I did a Fisher Mountain dig with Jesse about a month ago for $1,000. Very happy with the dig but I didn’t do as well as you did. Just wondering if you paid more than $1,000? Thanks
I’m going to mount ida tomorrow to do some mining. It’s my first time in the area, where do you recommend for somebody who is a seasoned rock hounder? I can’t decide between wegner, twin creek, and others
I would recommend a pocket dig at Twin Creek. You will probably have to make reservations. Let Bobby know I sent you! Otherwise Wegners has potential for hard rock mining too Good luck to you!
I’m sure you get this all the time, but drop me a message when you come to Ontario, Canada 🇨🇦. Not quite as far as Thunder Bay, just 2 hours drive north of Toronto. 😆 Great video
In this particular video, I thought it was pretty clear that it is a $1000 pocket dig. That is the starting price there and that is how much this dig cost me. In other videos, I don’t usually say costs because it can change with rising operation costs. Please refer to the individual mines websites for current information. ☀️
There is a championship dig every year here and the winner actually gets price money that exceeds their entry fee! I have a video on the 2018 version of the dig if you want to check it out. ✌️
Great video, Dominik! Jennifer, your hair is getting long... it looks nice! So glad you guys got so many crystals on this dig. Looks like a beautiful location, too.
1000 $ a pocket and they watch what you take out and cut it off when you get to much. I don’t think so. If I pay a1000 $ then I’ll keep it all. I hate greedy people. Definitely won’t be digging at this place. I enjoyed watching you tho. Keep it up 👍. Happy Trials
You still get your money’s worth but it is a large initial investment for sure. They are all super nice and helpful up there. Definitely not greedy. One has to take into account the tremendous operating costs also and they pay their workers very well. It’s one of those bucket list items for some folks which makes money only a secondary thought ✌️ Thanks for watching brother!
Whoa! Watch out Crystal Collector! That's actually really cool. You pay and do that once and you'll have that knowledge to do it yourself next time. 1000 bucks to learn how to find those quality crystals is nothing. Awesome crystals! Hey how deep from the surface were those?and are you at the very top of the mountain?
Thanks! Hard to say how close to the surface it is, this mine has been worked a while. There are pockets real close to the surface generally though in this area. I have seen some inches down to maybe a couple feet down.
@@CrystalsofArkansas .. I'm definitely wanting to attend your public Dig....👍❤️. Please update .... Your videos are incredible... Educational... So very Informative....

Aside from the price and people "evaluating" your finds, looks like fun!
It’s just the way this mine operates.
Done two pocket digs there and was satisfied both times. Absolutely a lot of fun
was your whole haul of over 1000 crystals $1000? Thanks for the great video!@@CrystalsofArkansas

@@CrystalsofArkansas I would love to see those ghost phantoms. I find blue phantoms on Crystal Vista.

I always get so jelly belly when I see how you pull them out like it's nothing. I want them alll!!!!
That’s how it is when you dig a pocket 😎
Tell Soma I still have my necklace and love it.and can’t forget to show some love to Punky
😊
Punky has been making it into the videos recently 😉
I will let Soma know. He actually moved to Arizona. We will visit him next month!
Hey Dom I totally want to come back soon
Hi! How do I get into this? I'm from Curaçao and have been looking for information on how to start.
Insane to think that you actually counted (off camera😝) to a thousand. Nice haul!
That was intense. I had to take notes lol
Hope you are well brother!

1000 dollars really?! Wow never would've guess thats way too expensive.
Mom, I'm playing in the dirt again!
$1000!!!! OMG!!
I’m sure you get this all the time, but drop me a message when you come to Ontario, Canada 🇨🇦. Not quite as far as Thunder Bay, just 2 hours drive north of Toronto. 😆 Great video
I would love that! It’s most definitely on my list! I’ll be in touch. Hopefully next year 🙏
I always want a pair for earrings... A lot of them are perfect ]. where you sell those... ?
So . . . is the thousand for one day or a weekend?? TIA
It’s valued by quantity and quality. You usually get your value in a half day to full day of digging.
Schöne Funde!
Und wie oft hast du dich verzählt Dominik? 😁
Grüße vom Rand der Schwäbischen Alb!
Elke
Haha, das war definitiv der schwerste teil des videos 😉😆
Do you sell any of the single points to people overseas? If so how would I be able to get some for jewellery making? Also what would they cost?
Send me a message on my Instagram, Facebook or Etsy and I will take care of your request! Thank you! ☀️
Are crystals profitable to sale?
That’s a big question lol
Depends on how much your expenses and costs are. It is a big industry.
Love your videos but you never mention the prices I would like to know if it’s worth the trip and the labor
In this particular video, I thought it was pretty clear that it is a $1000 pocket dig. That is the starting price there and that is how much this dig cost me.
In other videos, I don’t usually say costs because it can change with rising operation costs. Please refer to the individual mines websites for current information. ☀️
I want to come dig with you!!!
There should be a contest where the winner doesn't have to pay the fee for finding crystals
There is a championship dig every year here and the winner actually gets price money that exceeds their entry fee! I have a video on the 2018 version of the dig if you want to check it out. ✌️
08:41 looks like a phantom actually
Dang! You are right, I just checked and it is! They are so elusive. Thanks for pointing it out! 👍
Is this location $25 to enter or $25 per bucket or both?
Their website is in the description.
They have a tailings pile for $25 a day and this video shows their pocket digs for $1000 and up.
So about $90 a flat. Maybe $50 worth of iron out, and a week to clean them. Count me in.
Ahloha !!!!
At that price, they can keep it all. 🤣
We do !!
Wish I could go crystal hunting but I'm disabled and in a wheelchair
Some mines can accommodate you. I would recommend wegners. They are excellent in costumer service and accommodating all people.
Great video, Dominik!
Jennifer, your hair is getting long... it looks nice!
So glad you guys got so many crystals on this dig. Looks like a beautiful location, too.
