Brilliant, those are amazing finds! 😍 I love stones, but I would have missed most of these beauties - your videos make me want to go looking for stones! 🤩

God...I AM a nerd! Love these posts.

[@cazkiwinz4300]

Yep… we all are 😂

[@lifewithankylosingspondylitis]

I've never heard of sagenite before!! Hello my fellow Canadian! I'm in London Ontario area but go all over trying to find cool rocks. Mostly lake Erie and lake Huron. We do plan to go to superior and lake Michigan next year hopefully! Love your finds and watching your videos!

[@RockhoundingLife]

So cool!

[@tracynonumbers]

you can get yoopers at Superior

[@JnVrockhounding]

Find enough sagenite did ya? Lol. Nice finds. Especially like that picture stone. That was super interesting to me.

[@CarolAnnAmelian]

[@RockhoundingLife]

[@carlalakins]

I liked the music! 😁

[@justjulee9135]

Gorgeous beach treasure! You found some great stuff!

[@RockhoundingLife]

Thanks so much!

[@leannaerickson9745]

Nice haul! I look forward to seeing what you do with all those wonderful rocks. I have seen sagenite inclusions in other rocks, but this is the first time I've seen sagenite modules. Something new for which to hunt. Thank you.🪨👏👏👏👏👏🏆

[@Mike-br8vb]

Awesome finds, and great cuts!

[@joannefrancia5940]

I’ve always loved picking up interesting rocks. I’ve used them to create unique picture frames, glued them to the rims of terracotta pots or even completely covered the clay pots. The best rocks I had were found at Lake Tahoe, near the stateline between California and Nevada. I wish I still had the things I made, but unfortunately I lost everything in a fire. If I ever get the opportunity to visit my old property, I imagine I’d be able to find at least some of the rocks I’d collected. My dad owns the property and it’s still vacant as well as most of the surrounding area. Only a few people rebuilt there. Unfortunately that property is a three hour drive from my parents home, and I now live a few states North from it. Not much chance I’ll ever get back there or to Tahoe either to collect new ones. What was interesting was how different the rocks were from one beach to another. I had rocks from three separate beaches all within a mile or two of one another.

[@JulesUS8386]

Like the blue sagenite, opal, cool agates! 💎👍

[@RockhoundingLife]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@JulesUS8386]

@@RockhoundingLife you could probably sit down and pick them up most of the day without having to move🤗

[@pand5760]

love the videos at scots bay! I've got a trip planned there in a couple of weeks with some folks who have never visited before. It never fails to deliver beautiful agates :)

[@RockhoundingLife]

Have fun!

[@keithmiklosi7046]

Amazing finds

[@peterlarsen7779]

@RockhoundingLife - Great finds! I don't know anything about stones.... I'll pick up a stone if it's look appeals to me, and usually keep it. Do you polish them up?

[@RockhoundingLife]

We polish most of them or give them.away as rough and let others polish.

[@lynettekeanelly6474]

Wow, you found some very nice rocks. I loved the ones with green in them as I found one similar and cut and polished it in different shapes and size, I love the pattern the colourful ones make. Only new at this game and pulled my second lot out of tumbler a week ago, Rey pleased with a lot of it. Found some rough supposedly opal off cuts and tumbled until clean and smooth, some of the colour in the jar I placed them in after is quite mesmerising. Any way, loved watching your rock hunting as Each time I am learning a little more about rocks.Next to the biggest rock you showed were a couple pieces of what we call brain coral here in South Australia which at first I thought you were going to pick up and later it looked like you did pick a shitty one and said, “ I don’t know what that is. “ Saw a show with one guy loving them things polished. I reckon they would make interesting jewellery pieces too.

[@williamhanley7031]

I liked that rootbeer agate

[@cjgia4898]

I do love Unakite! And Sagenite! Ok, I must confess, I am a rockhound! 😂😊

[@lisavagner9497]

At 4:33 in the video, as you’re picking up the opal, there was a gorgeous vivid green stone just to the right of the opal. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen that color in an unpolished rock, and I’m so intrigued! Any idea what it might be? I just happened upon your channel a few minutes ago and am HOOKED! Ever since I was a little girl spending my Saturdays sifting through the stone and gravel of my parents’ driveway, finding pieces of obsidian and the occasional arrowhead, I’ve loved exploring rocks. Just returned from a trip to Alaska with a few found treasures!

[@MsSheilaC]

oh wow i saw the exact rock! i thought initially thats what e was going to pick up. Mayeb serpentine? Jade? Im in northern CA and we'd fine those at the shore here

[@wildeyedfae]

New subby here! Love rocks. Always have. The agent at the Athens airport laughed at me when he took a closer look at the "things" in my bag. Yep. All immensely cool rocks from Greece!

[@RockhoundingLife]

Thats cool! And welcome aboard!

[@scottlemurianboxer]

Nice Unakite, crazy to just find Unakite with good color variety mix The 1 you put as "?picture stone?" I think its actually "Mookaite" they can have green like that....but maybe I'm wrong?

[@donnaherzig8106]

The picture rock was really neat. Is that an agate or Jasper? Would that make good slices?

[@MsSheilaC]

8:05 That really looks like Mookaite Jasper to me, or Ocean Jasper. Some kind of jaser for sure.

[@nicholashale6620]

Hello! Thanks to your other vids, we hunted Scot's Bay and surrounding areas this summer, and found most of what you did in this video! Seeing the common names up above as the video plays is really nice! Do you have any more info in "Picture Stone"? I had heard of brown "picture stone" jasper before, but have only seen it in various browns with bands from light grey to darker. I ask because we also grabbed a lot of those waxy looking faint red and yellow numbers, like the one you show. Is it an amalgam of jasper, or something? Keep up the great work! Cheers!

[@RockhoundingLife]

That stuff doesnt qualify to.be picture jasper. It isnt fine grained enough. Thats why i call it picture stone. Its more of a sandstone/quartzite

[@RWOxner]

Ok what is a picture stone? Does it take a polish? We haven't been to Scotts Bay in years, got to get back there.

[@RockhoundingLife]

Picture stone is a rock that literally looks like a picture, usually a landscape.

[@patriciastanke2264]

Did you keep the "??" ? Any idea what it is? Love the colors in it. Lots of great finds - fun.

[@RockhoundingLife]

I kept it. Still dont know what it is!

[@NickAcker2019]

I bet there wasn't any pulled arms to miss school for rockhounding 😂!

[@RockhoundingLife]

Nope!

[@bobmayr1066]

Wish I knew of your channel last year. My wife and I went across Canada last year from Vancouver Island to Nova Scotia. I picked up a few rocks but not as nice as what you’re showing.

[@RockhoundingLife]

Next time!

[@MeetyouinAIIMS]

Do this live

[@marklee1960]

As I am someone who collects rocks wherever I go, your channel is great to watch. But the music? Is horrible.

[@RockhoundingLife]

Can we compromise and you mute?

[@SharperMind123]

I didn’t mind the music, but I like the actual wind sound the best 😊 I can always turn the volume down on the wind.
