Rockhounding the NEW Janna's Gem Moss Agate Claim

[@janketza0206]

Dave this kind of video is just wonderful. I love hearing about the find of the claim, seeing the hard work, seeing the hammer hit the rock and revealing the surprise inside. Your commentary is spot on asking questions that cross my mind that give me more respect of the whole entire process. I hope you do more like this and often.

[@lapidarydave]

thanks jan i plan on making a lot more of these type of videos

[@deniseview4253]

Beautiful rock & country side.

[@wyomingadventures]

I finally got some of this material. In the tumbler now. Can't wait to get some more! Thanks Dave for sharing their claim!

[@Mikes97564]

Love your videos. Just wondering how would I aquire some of that moss agate jannas gem

[@CurrentlyRockhounding]

I really like this style of video. I'll likely not get that far south any time soon so it is really fun to see these places and the back and fourth between yourself and Jim is fun.

[@scoobnicholas3868]

will and Janna - you got A DREAM JOB. thanks for letting Dave make this video

[@veronicamoore3777]

LOVE THE PURPLE JASPER!!!❤️❤️❤️

[@jackiecayaMN]

Jim we are talking about it in Minnesota! 🤩 I actually follow a Facebook page from Iowa and the guy sells cabs of barrel cactus. So it's definitely making it's way around!

Do you happen to have a small piece of orange with that electric blue from this trip? My Great Granddaughter (age 6 yrs. old) would adore it. Something in the 1x1 inch range‽ Please let me know. TY

Dude what I love about your vids is, yeah man, frikin amazing stunning rocks, but also your nature. You are genuine. And talk to the other rock nuts with so much respect for what they do but also there’s like a wonder in your voice when you ask em stuff. It’s just rad. I seriously would love hangin out with you boys talkin rocks. I’m still watchin so I’ll finish up commenting after but duuuuuuude, oceans are rad, I just hate the divide they create dammit!

[@Rookie_Rockounding]

It’s everywhere! Holy heck!

[@Rookie_Rockounding]

This stuff is just gorgeous. It’s like plume and moss mixed together but dude to work it would be amazing. If I had the proper machines of course 🤔

[@Rookie_Rockounding]

Absolutely amazing man. Sorry for the comment streak but I just get excited while I watch. Love your work boys. Wish I knew how to teleport to hang out brothers 👊

[@lapidarydave]

thanks for your kindness my friend your the best :) you gotta make it to the states of we will have to come out there

[@kylaabegglen1275]

Holy water! That is gorgeous plumey goodness! Thanks so much Dave for showing us such great material and letting us know how to get hooked up with some. Love you and Jim, such silly boys making me laugh all the time. Will and Janna seem like really neat people too. Thanks for sharing this Dave, going to order some tumbling rough right now.✌️🤠

Where are you at?

[@Ontario_Rockhound]

Very pretty material Dave!!

[@troydean5702]

Do you all have on you while in the field antivenom for your dogs?

[@chadatchison145]

Moss agate heaven, thanks for the video my friend.

[@largent45]

Holy cow Dave! That material just speaks for itself! It us just so beautiful. I loved the barrel cactus material on sight, and to hear that they have 2 more claims up there, with similar material but each has its own special thing about it, that distinguishes it, from the other. That is some seriously gorgeous material! And that 3rd site that isnt to be opened up til next year, i think he said, has the ultimate pieces in it! That drop dead gorgeous tube agate that has distinct fortifications around it! That is going to be the ultimate claim! The colors in the Janna's rocks is so beautiful! that purple/red with the blues, and golds, and whites and pinks in it. And the tiny vugs in it that are filled with crystals, and amethyst! thats truly amazing! Im so amazed at the fact that this sweet couple are mining and selling this gorgeous rock, all by themselves! That is a s*** ton of work! Just seeing all the rock that he carried in his back pack alone, blew my mind! and a bag, and a bag full, of tools, and water and rocks! It was at least 150lbs you said! I know how fast the barrel cactus stuff sold after your first video! I wish them all the best in the world! Thank you for taking us along and see this beautiful material 1st hand. These are extremely beautiful moss agates! Every bit as beautiful as the Graveyard Point plumes! Awesome video!

[@scoobnicholas3868]

That was a funny line about moving the earth around the rock Dave ! great video on the process of harvesting this material- real down to earth video.

[@ansapo]

So very cool. I love how they come alive with water.

[@Cam420x]

Watching from NewZealand

[@lapidarydave]

awesome my friend can’t wait to visit 🇳🇿

[@laceycowley3791]

Hey Dave!.. I hope you and Grandma are safe from the fires out that way..?.. Part of our property out in Ocate got scorched, but luckily no one was harmed and the buildings still stand.. I wish everyone out in Northern NM the best of luck right now..

[@douglastaylor638]

All the fires out west is getting really scary

[@douglastaylor638]

God bless you all and stay safe

[@douglasbernick5908]

Nice stuff

[@rockhoundingwithjasperblue]

Great video, Lapidary Dave. You are in real good company. I’ve been out with Bill and his wife a few times, a few years back. They are GREAT folks. And I wish I could go out on field trips with them some more.

[@lapidarydave]

thanks for watching my friend Will and his wife are awesome people

[@hbeyer46]

How and where can I order some of this material. I'm not a Facebooker.

[@cenozoicjohn9886]

Nice video, guys! And nice to hear you touching on the geology a little. Good work all the way around! And yeah, most geologists usually just consider agate and onyx to be "overburden" 😄

[@marcosofsky2605]

That was a really fine little piece he gave you, you can slice it like a salami and get maybe 10-12 ready for a silver setting. I hope to get knee replacement surgery done and hit the trails here in Oregon , and illustrate my road trip with sketches and some prose for my daughter, Aly, who is a cool hard-working farm hand outside Eugene. Dig your show! pun intended

[@AEON.]

Nice Grateful Dead shirt he has on!
