Just a question

I have been walking through my woods on our property we own and found what I call a trail...Like a blood hound I followed the clues and started noticing rock on the surface shown below..My question is could these rocks lead to me finding larger crystals?

Well, Yes, Rocknerdeth!
When you see ANY crystallization you want search it out.
Often times you will find that that type of crystallization is
all that will occur in an area, but you always want to check
it out, as much as possible, to be sure.
Many times smaller crystals will lead to bigger ones.

And right in your own backyard! Smiley
As a member of this board, if you start to find any nice
big ones you have to invite us all over to dig. Wink

I have heard what is in our area..fluorite..hematite..thorite...magnatite and some more...and I do not believe it is just in the one area I heard so I have been searching around our land seems to me we are surround by these prospects and old mines I do not see it missing us lol...mind you I have been begging for the backhoe but hubby says no so shovels it is...I am going to clear up the leaves and such and see what is around and if I find some that would make it worth a trip and with his permission...as it is not just my land..see about who would like to come and find out what we have up here in the stix lol

The rocks seem to be getting a little better...Some look like you poured melted glass on the and also found one with a green thing on it..the last photo I could not get to resize but it is one of the ones that looks glassy on the end of it
