Halite Crystal Collecting ⛏🤠 in Searles Valley California with 💎 Rock Gem Crystal 💎

[@chrisstrobel3439]

I went to the Costa Mesa Gem and Mineral show 30 years ago with my mom, each one of us bought a large cabinet size Halite on matrix, mine went into my sealed mineral show cabinet, hers went on her book shelf, mine still sits there to this day perfect, hers dissolved and crumbled into a pile lol. Those are some NASTY collecting conditions, I’m glad there are guys like you doing the dirty work for us and offering the specimens for sale 👍

🤣 it's so salty, it hurts. It is a beautiful scene to swim in tho. 😉

Very interesting

[@WanderingVagabondYT]

Appreciate it! It has been a fun experience to dig for halite. We have done it for 3years now, and have a booth setup at the 22nd show in Tucson for the Gem Show.
