    Nice doubly-terminated calcite crystal, Jeff! Would that have been found at Titanite Hill? There's a really good spot in Quadeville I love, transparent green apatite. My favourite though is Grace Lake for tremolite.

    are there any freely accessible spots around madoc to dig at or do you need permission from a private land owner?

    Madoc is a tough area, most people are not friendly to collector, all I can say is ask nicely and someone might let you check out their property.

    bruh....you can't show us all the huge calcite and fluorite finds AND THEN NOT SHOW US ANY OF THE FLUORESCENCE AND PHOSPHORESCENCE!!

    I never even thought to check it for fluorescents, it's right outside and I will check it now. If I ever get a good UV light I will do a video on fluorescents.

    @@OffTheBeatenPath1 Looks like you already got a pretty nice 365 light? That should work well enough for the calcite phosphorescence. You mean shortwave? Engenious Designs has some nice 255nm LED lights...
