Oh I know. lol. This was double terminated quartz, here in Tennessee they're called Douglas Diamonds (when found at Douglas Lake), in NY they're Herkimer Diamonds. Where I am in East TN, there's not really a nickname for them.

No the gems, which are mostly chert, milky quartz, and some other, is what the surrounding ground is made up of, like my yard. We've not really had any stone brought into the driveway yet. But to find gems in crushed stone would be awesome lol.

Back around 98, a friend of mine found a kimberlite pipe in East tennessee, and brought me some tiny gemstones to test. There were diamonds, rubies, and sapphires in the sample. I have no idea where he found it though.

I'm a life long Mainer. Been walking by myself in the woods since childhood. Bet you on a lea line there. There are maps of the lines. Bet you on one. Don't camp there! By George! The content ain't worth it. I'd recommend bringing a friend and checking out the place an hour before dawn. Most dark activities are climaxing and then settling down at that time. You'd know whether it was sketchy or not right away. Poachers and backyard butchers normally don't cut the deer head like that, normally. I bet there are caves there somewhere. Here in Maine, stones would be thrown at unwelcome visitors. If the stones grow in size and frequency, we know it's passed time to go! We go. This was cool to watch. Thanks for sharing. Can you believe the leaves are just starting to open here in Maine. It's still cold at night. Rock on, my fellow explorer! 💪🪨🌲🌲
