[@mctron22rd]

I know right!

[@deniseview4253]

This is something I've always wanted to do. Go digging for gems. Thanks for sharing.

[@SanskritBlue]

I think what I love the most is that they are found nested in tree roots. As though the trees were guarding them.

[@meganparra2797]

Or feeding off their energy , we give our plants crystal buddies they seem to love it . 🌱

[@susancrockett8978]

That could definitely be true.

[@jacobdickson4839]

There under trees cause trees constantly pull water towards their roots and crystals need water for growth

[@annuitcptis3032]

Killing the trees for money....🤔

[@michelemcguire8995]

You can dig for your own its fun

[@ksawerykaminski2606]

Herkimers are freaking beautiful and their energy is insane 💜

I live near the Herkimer Diamond Mines in Herkimer NY. Middleville. We love it and I have a few. Thank you for bringing this video to so many and helping people who have not really ever even seen them, to know more about where they are found and exactly how they look. You found fantastic ones here! You can get rich on these! Make nice jewelry too

[@ShawnaCostonPhD]

They are absolutely FREE to every human being on the earth just like a natural diamond they all come from the DIRT. The same dirt all humans shall return. So, I honor the energy of this earth weather being negative or positive. We have to honor each other above greed and hate.

Love your video my friend. I truly enjoyed visiting you in person at the gems and minerals shows in Spruce Pine, NC this past weekend. My very first shows and it hit me like a lightning! So grateful for the radiant gift and I will forever treasured it...love love love it!!! Yep, here's your new YT subscriber and FB/IG follower!

[@TheCrystalCollector]

Awesome to meet you there! Yes the gem shows are great!! So glad you got to go 🙌🙏💎. Enjoy the bubble quartz 💎💎💎💫

[@tamigarrett3513]

Looks like so much fun. I want to go crystal hunting.

[@TheCrystalCollector]

Yes it’s lots of fun, I suggest if you ever have a chance to go and try

[@kprairiesun]

I can't resist herkimer diamonds! So pretty.

[@williambtm1]

The joy of discovery is an immensely enjoyable experience, I myself have found a great many double terminators (crystals usually found within degraded volcanic soils. best way to transport one's treasured finds is to use sawdust between the layers of crystals as they stack up in a container. 2 kilos of sawdust with do a mighty fine job of keeping every crystal separate from the other.

[@TheCrystalCollector]

Yes I agree so much! Finding crystals like this is so exciting, and that’s a great way using Saw dust, never thought of that🙌

[@สํานักสักยันต์กุศะอาจารย์ยุทธ]

Hi

[@trippingonrocks1165]

So very beautiful, the one just hanging on to the cliff face was so clear and clean. You make it easy to follow the vein your digging because you explain it so well. Thank you.

[@freetolook3727]

My daughters used to find them in the road of the campground we were at after a heavy rainstorm. The campground got gravel locally to redo the roads and the gravel was full of Herkimer diamonds.

[@TheCrystalCollector]

ToughAncientSpark that’s awesome!!

[@rinakhan4202]

Wow. So nice

[@workoverloadschannel4355]

Watching your videos makes me so emotional. It’s amazing

[@grantperkins368]

Wow, thanks! my hobby's been gold, but I think it just changed. Seen one bit of gold and you've seen them all, pretty well. If I ever make it over there from Viet Nam you've gotta promise to take me out to your mate's patch in NY! Pulling just one! of those out would be enough for me in this lifetime. Prettier than diamonds by far! Good luck to you buddy!

[@amberbryeans114]

I think this has to be my favorite dig of yours those herkimer crystals are the best ones in my opinion, really pretty

[@TheCrystalCollector]

It was super fun times!!

[@CourtneyLurae]

How do you part with any of these babies?!?! I'd love to purchase from you someday. Seeing them being dug up by hand just makes them seem so much more special. Awesome job.

[@queserasera7395]

The colors are gorgeous! Mesmerizing!!

[@deniseview4253]

This is the kind of rock hunt I've dreamed of.

[@cheryls7782]

My hubby took me digging for my birthday at Herkimer. Had the best time ever!!

[@icnicxjey]

I love his vids bc he's finding them every second and other vids are like 40mins long just to find one small not even real diamond

[@floria5618]

Wow so cool and so beauty this amazing diamond 😍

[@devinleal8572]

a friend and I went last august and we obviously didn't know what we were doing, and a guy there showed us rocks with holes in them that have small Herkimers in them, it wasn't until we were about to leave, we saw another guy that was playing in the dirt and showed us some real beauties, we plan on going again and this has been a real helpful video because now we know where to look and what to bring with us, and let me tell you the whole time I was watching this video, every time you pulled out a nice sized diamond, I was saying shut up, the whole time LOL :D :D those are massive and absolutely gorgeous!! that is a nice collection you found, like WOW!!!! :)

[@TheCrystalCollector]

petsmart1000 yes, it can be some tough Digging at some locations, this spot is fairly easy but still hit and miss: so much fun

[@amycollett5996]

My family went to herkeimer NY and found herkeimer diamonds. It was our first time. My Dad ran into a gentleman selling the diamonds from a pocket he was mining. This gentleman kept pulling herkeimer diamonds out of this pocket and some were still in the matrix , Huge diamonds!!! I have never experienced such diamonds. These diamonds were the size of my fist. I didn't eat or drink the whole time I was there. My whole family was running around looking for these diamonds and it was so exciting!!!!! I totally enjoy your videos!💯😀

[@VibeWithLuna]

I took my road test in Herkimer in like 2008. I need some of this in my life.

I have been trying my best to research local dig sites here in Washington state, but I also don't have a car haha, so I try to find crystals here at capitol forest or black hills but the only crystals I seem to find are low quality agate and a ton of hematite even though I know there is so much in these hills.

Right no its semi-private, they are doing paid trips to the site. Message me in about 2-3 weeks about it for sure

I would appreciate a heads up about the site as well. We are only a couple hours away from there!

maybe some locations will be found near you! You never can tell whats hidden in the earth!

[@amigo8872]

The Crystal Collector , you have awesome job, I would be very happy to have this work

[@Murlockingqc]

Can I dig gems in Canada, Quebec too ? They are building house near by me, I wonder if I could find something nice! I found a few quartz but nothing as cool as you've been finding on this channel.

[@TheCrystalCollector]

check out the location, you never know what you might find!

[@priscillaross-fox9407]

Murlockingqc, I forgot what they call it but Canada has a department of mining. I know I'm not exact in the words. This is where GOOGLE is a really good friend! There are so many keywords to use in searching for minerals on Google.Try www.mindat.org/ That's the first website that comes to me mind Mindat also has forums. My area of exploration was the Keweenaw Peninsula and honestly I have a bunch of books from mining to collecting but my 'bible' was Bulletin #6 which was re-done but I still like the older one and was easier to take with. Anyway, I bet there's a rockhounding group in Quebec around your area...... ask around at shops that sell mineral specimans. Rule #1 Don't go on private property without asking (getting) permission first! Rule#2 if you are going to dig holes make certain you fill them in before you leave. Rule #3 Do not leave a mess! If you brought it there, take it with you when you leave. And good luck.
