[@amyd2783]

Smoky Quartz is one of my favourite crystals

[@thatcrystallady_donna]

That scepter is beautiful

[@charlotte_and_mikes_adventures]

When you hit the black glass I knew you were in it🙂, amazing find. Love the vids keep them coming. Heading to crystal vista this weekend, hopefully I'll find some of that black glass🪨

[@CrystalsofArkansas]

I was super surprised because these are hard to find. We got extra blessed by the earth! Good luck at vista this weekend! 🍀

[@MrMeck58]

Some real nice crystals....

[@elizabethdelfosse6494]

We were digging around that same pocket in mid October, and my son found a beautiful piece of quartz. I love that is possible to pan and dig there. I walked away from the creek with a small piece of amythest and a small emerald. It's an 8 hour drive, but I'm hoping to take a mining trip back there and to some of the other mines in the area next summer.

[@CrystalsofArkansas]

That is so awesome!! It is still going! 💚💎

[@veeleeproductions5154]

great vid. My dad use to dig up on the hill and found a huge pocket with Crystals. The largest was larger than basketball

[@veeleeproductions5154]

and the creek use to be very full of dumped /salted gems. We never left without a full bread bag amount of gems including sapphire and ruby rough. those were fun times

[@taitai3906]

wow!

[@tracyfrederick5606]

Smoky quartz is my all time favorite crystal. I have quite a few but I want more always. They're so relaxing. They really help with my anxiety. I always have one on me.

[@CrystalsofArkansas]

Stones are amazing for emotional support and balance. I love smokies too. I use lepidolite a lot when I feel anxious. Many crystal blessings to you

[@RiskyVentureMinerals]

So much fun!

[@stephm5135]

ho yesss! GG . Merci pour la vidéo

[@CrystalsofArkansas]

💚❤️💛

[@dustinfindsrocks]

Very cool 👍🏼 💎👀💜 Next year I’m going to be in Arkansas sometime for sure. North Carolina is definitely on my wish list. Let me know if you’re ever in Missouri

[@CrystalsofArkansas]

Hi Dustin! North Carolina is epic for crystals and beautiful nature. I would love to dig Druze in Missouri with you. I may make it up there this winter 😁💎

[@richardlasky9184]

I have been there a few times.. 👍. One of the times I was there I dug for 4 hours and hit a gigantic Crystal Boulder it was so big I had to just take my sledgehammer and start breaking gigantic large handfuls off . .. 💪💯❤️💎 Another time I was there I found handfuls of little baby emeralds in a small pocket.. 😇🙏🥰😍

[@radtad1983]

woah u had really good pulls there! i went there and got some decent stuff but u got real nice shit hell yea.. im going there in a couple weeks

[@CrystalsofArkansas]

I was surprised and blown away!!

[@earldigginz9157]

Awesome stuff Dominique. Btw It sounds like you could do a good Arnold swarzenegger impression.

[@CrystalsofArkansas]

Haha I’ve been asked before. “Get dowwwwn!” 😂 I actually haven’t watched any of his movies 🙃

[@yulissapineda6611]

We are coming on June 6 on the field trip. I’m a kid.

[@AmyRach1979]

Fantastic

[@CrystalsofArkansas]

Thank you!

[@BanJoUkeKid]

Do you have to bring your own tools to the mine?

[@CrystalsofArkansas]

I brought my own. They did provide the screen though! If you don’t have your own tools, check directly with the mine to find out if and what they can provide.

[@Joe_Stewart]

Need to take a squirt bottle with you. And when you see something take your time to get it out in 1 piece. Looks like you may have been the one that fractured that crystal with the prybar from underneath

[@gcegubbels4734]

Nice hare alco the bearyful xton

[@ashleygonzales3756]

Damn u are making me jones to get digging.

[@CrystalsofArkansas]

Same! Every day I want to, but gotta adult sometimes too 😂

[@JoelCrow09]

Are there any additional tools or stuff we should bring that isnt provided?

[@CrystalsofArkansas]

I would recommend bringing all your own tools. If you are digging in the pit area, bring a pick, shovel, buckets, hammer, chisel. They do provide the screens and some other basic tools but things may change so I would recommend checking with the mine before your trip.

[@breanas_mommy]

Hello! My husband and I plan on taking a trip to Emerald Hallow Mine in a few weeks! I read what tools they provide to you on their page, but I'm a little confused. Haha it says no metal tools. Is that right? What do they give you to use exactly? Just so I know what we should bring! Thank you!!

[@melchiah501]

I'm actually at the mine right now. You can bring whatever metal tools you like if you plan on digging (just nothing motorized). The "no metal tools" part is if you plan on going down to their creek to search for things. We brought a cart with us as it's a bit of a walk from the dig area to the wash area and if you load your bucket up, it can get heavy. They also have shovels and buckets here if you want to use their tools.

[@bellashealingartistry8934]

What month was this? I'm not sure when I should visit from California

[@CrystalsofArkansas]

This was in July. The area is amazing and the mountains are beautiful. I think late Spring to fall is most enjoyable. Summer is great because you get to play in the creek and sluice to cool off and everything is in the shade!

[@gcegubbels4734]

Nive difrand beatyful stone

[@Lakeman23]

In the rules it says do not dig by tree roots, that's where he found a lot of good stuff??

[@scotthardy5612]

Aquamarine is blue green is beryl

[@KINGH4L0]

I went to the hiddenite mine last n NC and looked in a stream…Turns out they salt the damn area with random minerals from all around the world! Pissed me off.

[@CrystalsofArkansas]

Yeah the stream area is super salted and we don’t recommend it for serious rockhounds. Stick to the virgin soil for the real experience

[@instantsmile-is]

We have large amount of Smokey Quartz. Please let's know if you want work with us.

[@ashleygonzales3756]

Ok Dom I just posted on Facebook🤞, let's get some more subs...bc everyone could benefit on some Dom, Punky, and Jennifer in their lives

[@CrystalsofArkansas]

You are so sweet! Thank you! We are about to visit Soma at his new place in Arizona!

[@mrso3856]

can I have one?

[@gcegubbels4734]

Nice libel cristal

[@vicentehernandez6165]

🇵🇷🤲🇨🇺

[@WavyOnMobile]

Too bad it's salted around there

[@CrystalsofArkansas]

The pile is native dirt but they do offer salted buckets which sometimes contaminate the pile.

[@jameslewis1605]

Dude.... haircut please

[@CrystalsofArkansas]

Been there done that
