Discovery of Chlorite Quartz and Fluorite North Carolina

[@stevenevangelist5221]

The ones with blue, purple,multicolored are so nice.

[@HighCountryRocks]

Those inclusions are wild. I don't know if you ever looked into the metaphysical valise but a quick Google search on Chlorite Quartz and it's a powerful mineral.

[@stevenevangelist5221]

@@HighCountryRocks they give you energy. My friend held a crystal pushed his thumb on it and it exploded into little pieces it was amazing

[@HighCountryRocks]

I believe that. I am not one to get deep into the metaphysical world but I feel that vibration.

[@richardmowery9804]

That looks like an amazing day sir!!!! Wowsers!!

[@HighCountryRocks]

Too many quartz crystals to know what to do with.. I am not complaining one bit. Thanks for the comment.

[@CSIPiper]

I just found your channel a couple weeks ago and I’m really enjoying them. My sons and I love all sorts of “rocks.” We go camping/hiking quite a bit and it never occurred to me to take a look around for crystals!!! Thanks for the tips (like looking for roots, etc)!!! P.S. You have found enough crystals to give folks bags of them??? Woooww!! That’s amazing! And very nice of you!

[@HighCountryRocks]

Don't for get to look down. You will be surprised what you will find in the Mountains of North Carolina. Those roots will lead you to success 👍. I am glad you found my channel a found some information not help you treasure the outdoors. Thanks for the comment. Your not left handed are you...? Lol

[@CSIPiper]

@@HighCountryRocks haha no I’m not. The thought already crossed my mind when you were trying to dig them out in the video 😄

[@HighCountryRocks]

I forget to look up anymore 😜.

[@JayDrone]

I don’t subscribe to many channels I will see your video very informative the end of that pocket outstanding

[@HighCountryRocks]

Thank you. My goal is to help someone else have the same opportunity and learn to appreciate geology. Thanks for your sub. I am about to start putting out some new content.

[@janefromthecountry1820]

I am enjoying your videos. Keep up the good work.👑

[@HighCountryRocks]

Thank you. Time to get some gold.

[@jamieharrison5946]

Wow I would have absolutely loved to have seen this site in person. Absolutely beautiful specimens found ❤

[@HighCountryRocks]

It became dangerous or I had a weird feeling about this spot and haven't gone back in awhile. You have to follow your gut being a rockhound.

[@marciageiser2823]

Can't tell you how much I enjoy cleaning some but very gently. I am going to put some clusters on driftwood. I put the driftwood in my plants, mainly orchids. They love the power of the crystal as I do too.

[@HighCountryRocks]

Its so fun that expose their beauty. I am so happy you appreciate them like me.

[@s4dreamland671]

Good tips and great finds ! 👍

[@hollybellemcclure451]

Wow!! Have made some pretty finds in Ashe and a few other spots around THC....enjoyed ur video

[@HighCountryRocks]

Ashe has some wild minerals. The copper history is wild. I habe been researching Ashe co.for awhile now. I am interested in what you are finding.

[@screwheadTILL1d1e]

bro! epic fluorite! and you sure did hit some gems, keep up the good work

[@HighCountryRocks]

It don't usually work out that way. What a fun pocket. Next time it'll be emeralds hopefully.

[@HighCountryRocks]

Thanks Brotha... We need to get up before winter and get into the ground.

Wow Wanting to buy one.

I got you covered sir.

@@HighCountryRocks cool

[@sidewinderhikes5798]

Nice to see someone using a wood dowel (paint brush?) to clean out a pocket. It makes me cringe when I see people using screwdrivers. I have been doing limited rockhounding up in Pisgah NF. So far only found some tourmaline and garnets. Nothing really collectable. Maybe one day I will hit a pocket like yours. Subscribed

[@HighCountryRocks]

It takes a lot of patience but it's worth it in the end. You keep following and I'll put you on some of those pockets. Thank you for the watch.

[@sidewinderhikes5798]

@@HighCountryRocks Thanks. Will do.

[@Tina-mt9cl]

Finding a lot of crystals with green chlorite inclusions here in the piedmont of NC also, including green phantoms. Cool to find someone here on KZbin prospecting in NC too! Haven't done much rock hounding in western NC but here in the piedmont the Uwharrie National forest is where a lot of people go crystal digging and gold sluicing. Where is a good area to start poking around in the Appalachians?

[@HighCountryRocks]

I would recommend looking into Mitchell and Yancey County. I love the Chlorite it really sets off the quartz. I would love to see some of the stuff you find. Add me up on Instagram if you got it.

[@mikey-mike8301]

Interested in the piece you pulled-oit at 2:55, if its available for purchase. Thanks. Michael.

[@HighCountryRocks]

If you would like it we can work out a deal.

Your gems are really beautiful!! Being out in nature this time of year is lovely to the eyes ! Then you mention gold, almost looks like gold in the quartz.? Stay safe and see you next time.

[@HighCountryRocks]

I think it is gold biotite mica included in these crystals. I have panned out some of the concentrates from this pocket and I haven't seen any heavies just tons of pyrite. Which pyrite could also be the gold inclusions but it seems awfully gold to me. Thank you for the comment.

[@gordanhiggins9047]

Cool 😎

[@HighCountryRocks]

I seen on Instagram you have been out enjoying yourself. I love that rock that is stuck in that tree. It has been there for a long time. Thanks for the comment.

[@RebeccaCaldwellSingerandartist]

I'm planing a trip out to NC most likely in April. To dig for rubies and look for crystals. Are there any suggestions for a newbie that's going alone? I never been to NC before so it should be fun and exciting!

[@HighCountryRocks]

Propst Farm is a great place to start. Emerald Hollow Gem Mine also offers real digging also unsalted.

[@christinemeredithjones1549]

i know this was posted a long time ago but where is this prospect ? i’d like to go

[@MonicaWomble]

Are you still offering some of these for sale?

[@HighCountryRocks]

I do have plenty if you would like some.

[@MonicaWomble]

@@HighCountryRocks I would LOVE some! We have lots of quartz rock with crystals in them, but not enough clues to start digging around and I would love some NC quartz crystals. How much? Where to send? What is the best way to pay? Thanks!!

[@HighCountryRocks]

@@MonicaWomble If you want to email me @ [e-mail]. I can send you some pictures and we can figure an extremely fair price. They are definitely very unique and I love to share.

@@HighCountryRocks awesome! I have sent you an email. Thanks!

I will email you back this weekend with a few options.

Have not heard back from you. Went on instagram and you have not responded.
