field trips

An incredibly beautiful rock hounding trip searching for chalcedony bowls, crystal clusters, and agate.

Looking for pseudomorphs of glauberite after selenite, aragonite and calcite.

A club trip to a bronze foundry for a special tour of how the foundry creates bronze art from start to finish.

Looking for treasures in the tailings pile after an educational presentation on how the owners process and extrude the copper found in the mine.

Searching through the tailings pile at the Planet Mine for Chrysocolla and Malachite.

Scouring the ground for chalcedony "roses" in the high desert.

Looking through acres of Mayer onyx for treasures to take home.

One of the club's favorite rock hounding sites! Beautiful quartz  treasures everywhere!
