Your videos are incredibly informative and entertaining! I could watch them all day. I love watching the full process you go through to locate, mine, and clean specimens, and your explanations are very clear and easy to understand. Thank you so much for the great content! I look forward to the next one!

As a geology undergrad student, I love watching how huge some of these quartz crystals are. I have never in my life found any like this. Very nice.

My mom and I went to Herkimer approximately six years ago (I was 16). It was an amazing experience for both of us. Not including the crystals we got from the gift shop, our two days there gave us about 20 or so crystals of various sizes and weights. Not bad for 12 hours of digging! I know this video is older and I just saw this, but that's my story. We live in Vermont so the only notable mining sites we have are our marble/granite quarries.

@Jim Loftus NJ, does not have a complete ban on pain medications. Not does any state. All pain meds can only be 5-10 pills doses with one renewal for that one condition. GPS can not right scripts for certain pain medication. Surgerns can for certain surgeries and again they are limited to a certain amount of days. Only pain management specialists, chemo therapists, and cancer surgeons, and specific condition surgeries where you are hospitalized and under the supervision of the hospital, that can prescribe class 3 pain medication. They mentioned specialists are only dispensed through a national database specifically for that specialist. No handwritten scripts are to be given to the patient for this class of pain medication. In other words, the script is sent directly to the approved pharmacy and only thorough the national database. Your surgeon made the decision not to prescribe you class 3 medication, not a ban. If you were told that, then they were misinformed or it may be a practice-wide policy. There are many different practices that have adopted a policy not to prescribe all pain medications so they can avoid the immense hassle it is for those that do prescribe class 1 or 2 pain medications. It is highly regulated and requires certain certificates and a lot of paperwork for each script written. If you have a legitimate condition requiring a class 3 drug, then your GP can send you to a pain specialist. There you will be required to have had specific tests done and a copy of your file showing a history of said condition. The patient information is reviewed and only then you may be accepted. If you're accepted, you will be subjected to periodic urine tests to check for dosage in your system and the sign for street drugs. (I work in pain specialist practice)

Crystals have a "preferred" shape which they follows because of their mineralogy. Same reason to how pyrite crystals form perfect cubes. That's the simplified reason.

@@TheCrystalCollector Too true! Back breaking to work that table layer. There used to be boulders in the dump area that were 'easy' to split with a cold chisel, wedge, and 20lb sledge. Just pounding a few times with the hammer in the right place would induce a hairline crack. Took a few tries but once there was a crack, cold chisel would make it run and then the wedge did the rest. 10% of the time there'd be a vug exposed, with 1-5 perfect small crystals. Eventually break down the boulder to softball sized rocks and go home with 10-20 diamonds, 1/4"-2" range. I only did day trips to the Middleville mines so that worked for me. There were also mines in Fonda, 45 minutes east, which combined camping and digging. Good times with my daughters when they were young. In 1993 my daughter and I lucked into a pocket at Hickory Hill just removing dirt with a shovel. It was above the frost line so the larger ones were often fractured, but we pulled out hundreds of crystals up to 5"x7", and exhausted oversevles in 2 days so we let some others have the pocket and they took out a whole lot more. Camping was free at Hickory Hill and digging was $1.00 a day free for kids. I guess it is closed now. It was only open to the general public on the 3 holidays (Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day).

Once you see these different types of crystals, you fall in love with them ❤

I started collecting rocks and minerals years back. I found them mainly at gem and mineral shows. I found some Herkimer diamonds back them and bought a few small ones, but haven't seen any really nice specimens since then. I thought about going on hunting trips for rocks and minerals, but had a heart attack and now I cant do anything too strenuous. Still love my collection although Ive slowed down collecting in recent years and now corona virus has cancelled the gem and mineral shows in my area. Nice video you made and I enjoyed seeing where the Herkimers came from.

Something very similar to those are found in Michigan, in big chunks of this white chalky substance, but the diamond like chunks come out in perfect cut squares right off the rock..
