There's nothing like the feeling you get when unearthing a new pocket. I get a rush like no other every time, making you instantly forget all the hard work you had to do to get to it. That amethyst pocket is something so incredibly special, like it's taken out of a game or cartoon. It would almost be wrong to mine it out.

[@michaelc3977]

I just purchased a stunning 3 kilogram amethyst single point with great clarity, deep dark colour, perfect point, long sided with multi-termination castling, AND a thread of citrine running through it, making it ametrine/bolivianite, delivered from China to the UK for $130. I cannot wait for it to arrive!

Just found this channel and just finished watching this first episode and I'm MIND BLOWN!! This was so interesting, so informational and such good quality! I absolutely loved seeing how they mine out the amethyst and seeing how they process them. And I was so happy to see the quality of the mine camp and how much they care for all of the workers, it truly made me smile. And that huge amethyst cavity in the end. Just wow. I'm so happy to see they had left it as is and I really do hope they will be able to excavate it fully in one piece, that would be nothing but extraordinary! As a geologist I totally understand that you wanted to stay a while in there, I would have a hard time leaving as well! Can't wait to keep watching these videos!!

Amazing trip, amazing Amethyst! Hopefully one day I will have the chance to visit crystals in their natural home, inside the mines. Thank you for recording your journey for the world to see! It makes us appreciate more how amazing these crystals and the earth are.

This is my KZbin channel where I do charitable work down there helping build schools in rural areas. But I had the pleasure of going fishing with my sister and my nephew's

I love this video I grew up in Bolivia and a lot of the places you're going I went I found it humorous when your daughter had a hard time eating the piranha but I'll tell you if you ever go back you should try the pseudo be that they said was catfish and it's not it's really good with garlic ginger salt and mustard they make it in Santa Cruz I grew up in Chapare which is in the Amazon basin north of Santa Cruz.
