Finding Crystals for FREE at Ron Coleman Crystal Mine!!

Hey guys! On Wednesday, August 23rd, I visited the Ron Coleman Crystal Mine for a FREE dig that day! Woohoo! Thank you to the staff at Ron Coleman Crystal Mine!!
In this video, I go over 3 different ways to have a free dig at the mine, and I show examples of what types of crystals to expect to find. Also, how the crystals (both singles and clusters) look when they're raw out of the ground, and how they look cleaned up.
I hope that this video looks like help to you if you are thinking of visiting this location!
Thanks for watching, and God bless!

Just got back from a few days with my sisters and our grandsons! We all had a wonderful time.

@@cyndycyndyfinnell1537 fantastic!! I just uploaded a brand new video for Ron Coleman Crystal Mine about a half an hour ago. I dug there last Friday. It’ll have more current info in it. Hope it’s a help!! Thanks for watching!!

Thank you for sharing. I have been wanting to go there for so long! I've lived in Arkansas for nearly 40 years and I still haven't made it. And yeah Arkansas is harsh in the heat and humidity of the summer. Maybe I can get my grandson to go with me on my birthday in November. It's definitely on my bucket list! The crystals are absolutely beautiful.

[@joedadbod8450]

Thank you!! Yes, spring and fall are my favorite times to go. 😊

[@Julianne955]

What a great hunt! Happy Belated Birthday! You found some beauties, and you're tough as can be dealing with that heat! Thank you so much!

[@joedadbod8450]

Thank you so much!! I had a lot of fun even though it was very taxing on me.

[@tambramccauley2132]

so pretty--how exciting to find something like that!

[@GREEKEXPLORERS]

Amazing video!! Thanks for sharing!! Happy birthday my friend!!

[@joedadbod8450]

Thank you so much!! Hope you are well!!

[@micahmann6967]

Happy day! How nice that they let you dig for free like that. Great finds!

[@joedadbod8450]

Yes, it's such a blessing to be able to do that. Ron Coleman's is one of my favorite mines in that area, for sure.

[@72CrossingRS]

🎉🎉 What a way to spend the day. Haven't stopped there yet but hope too. Happy Birthday! Beautiful tug you got out of there!

[@joedadbod8450]

Thank you! If you ever get a chance, tell them I sent you. Ha! Then they might like at you like "Joe? Joe who??" 🤣😂

[@debbieluna2967]

🎉Happy belated birthday

[@cherieblossomarttravels]

Hey happy belated B-day 🎂 thanks for sharing clip - they're Sooo pretty 💎💎💎 My partner & I planning a trip over there - he wants to see the NAS Cars & I want to go to Ron Coleman mine for my B-day 💕

[@Inurfacewithbass12]

Good stuff! Plan to make my way down there hopefully soon.

[@harperfamilyharper3146]

Love your videos!!!! Thank you for sharing your treasures with us.

[@KarmasKissCreationsByMariola]

Happy Belated Birthday! You found some nice crystals. I am coming down to Ron Coleman for my birthday on Halloween, hopefully it will be a bit cooler then...lol

[@GokouZWAR]

My family is here now, we didn’t find near what you got. I found a couple of good clear ones but mostly all shards or super tiny points. We really can’t haul one of those big ones in our van. Let alone getting one to it.

[@harperfamilyharper3146]

Went to moonstone beach the other day and got a bunch of jade and jasper stones. So pretty!!!

[@canadiangemstones7636]

The busted ones are great for tumbling, or, if they are perfectly clear, save them in case you want to try faceting!

[@joedadbod8450]

Yes! They're great "filler" pieces, for sure! I've never done any faceting before, but it is definitely something I could attempt at a future date. Thanks so much for the suggestion!! :)

[@DiggerJax]

Great video! I recently went here too (I watched your video before I went). Thankfully it wasn't as hot as your day!

[@joedadbod8450]

Thanks so much!! Hope you did well on your dig and you were able to walk away with many great pieces!!

[@ruthw1079]

... A birthday big for me would be pretty cold... In the beginning of January

[@crepesaresupreme4075]

Well this might be my plan come June 2nd! It’s gonna be very hot though so I’m a little hesitant. Heading to Missouri for a group dig May 11-12

[@Alaskanraven13]

What part of the grounds did you go to? Did you go to a place where they dump the truck loads? The reason I ask is I was there 3 weeks ago, digging around in the dirt for 4 hours and only found 8 small broken crystals. I would love to find a spot like you did.

[@joedadbod8450]

I usually ask the staff where the freshest piles have been dumped before I start to dig. If none are available for asking, I look around the grounds to see which ones look the freshest verses the ones that look like they have been sitting around for a few months. The fresher ones are usually colored a little differently and appear more turned up and are less settled and worn down and packed down by weather and people.

[@dustinfindsrocks]

We’re going to have to have some kind of birthday meetup sometime. Mine’s the 20th and Jeff’s is the 22nd. I’m 2 days older than him 😆

[@joedadbod8450]

Let's plan it next year for our birthdays!!! My wife's is the 24th, and our oldest son's birthday is the 25th.

[@michelleshade2598]

Happy belated birthday

[@joedadbod8450]

Thanks so much!! I appreciate it. :)

[@tracyowens220]

We went to what we thought was Ron Coleman's but it totally didn't look like that. The sign said Fisher mountain, but there was only one mound, any idea if we didn't go far enough down the road or somehow we missed it?

[@harperfamilyharper3146]

Happy birthday 🎉

[@CoachG6086]

Is this still available

[@ljbrizo]

I’m a hard digger, had good luck there years ago, last 3 trips have been very disappointing I DONT think I am going back, something ther has changed,

[@joedadbod8450]

I'm so sorry! I do better on some trips than I do other trips, but I always at least get my money's worth of crystals every time I go. I can't always knock it out of the park, but when you get a fresh load with all kinds of goodies, it's hard to have a bad day there. If they haven't dumped for a couple of weeks, it can be hard to get some good pieces.
