2018 World Championship Quartz Crystal Dig in Arkansas at Twin Creek Crystal Mine | Drone Footage

This is the first video in a series of two episodes of the 2018 World Championship Quartz Crystal Dig. Due to popular demand, I decided to make this video of mostly drone footage. Stay tuned for the full-length video of the Crystal Dig coming soon to this channel.
This annual event brings in rockhounds from all over the country in the search for the best clear quartz crystal point and crystal cluster. Held every year on the second weekend in October in the Quartz Crystal Capital of the world: Mount Ida.
There are multiple participating mines to dig at. The 2018 mine hosts were Twin Creek Crystal Mine and Sweet Surrender Crystal Mine. Both are great places, make sure to check them out!
All this footage was taken at the Twin Creek Crystal Mine, located within the Ouachita National Forest in Arkansas.
For more information on the Championship Dig check out www.mtidachamber.com
In addition to the friendly Crystal Mining Competition, there also is a great Mineral and Gem Show happening with many beautiful minerals, stones, crafts and more to browse and purchase.
I hope you all enjoy this video. Like, share and subscribe please. Thank You!

    I love the style of music and the shape of the quarry within that treeline. It truly shows what a rockhounding haven looks like 😀

    Which drone did you use? I have a Mavic Pro but would love the new Mavic model with 1" sensor..

    I got the Mavic Pro. Great little drone to get started. The new ones do look amazing though!

    Sucks I went the week before. They were holding out on the good sections of the mine specifically for the dig. So we didn't come up with very much at all.

    That’s unfortunate. It does vary some but Bobby Fecho keeps the mine in top shape generally. I have always done well there. Keep trying, I hope next time is more successful!

    Which Arkansas mine do you recommend for a beginner that is interested in more than scratching through tailings?

    Wegner’s or Twin Creek. Both are in Mount Ida. Happy mining and good luck!

    The crystals are beautiful but the pit mine they are forming to get them is an ugly scar on mother.

    Yes, it will need to be reclaimed and replanted.
