Field Trip Report:

Antreville, SC

We had another great dig at Diamond Hill. Our club dig followed another machine dig. The skeletal pit had been opened up nicely and the veins produced many nice specimens. To find the amethyst the members needed to hit the many dump piles throughout the mine area.
