More specimens found by our members during the dig...


Cool epimorph that Ohio John found at the club dig at Diamond Hill. He had four of these. It looks like the calcite formed over the quartz crystals and then got hot and started to melt creating the stalactitic formations. It was then covered with druse quartz, a very cool piece unlike any of the other epimorphs I have collected there. I had to trade for this piece for my collection.

A very nice specimen from a secret club member!

Below are some pics from George Harris.
