Watching your video dreaming of winning the lottery and going shopping for everything! LOL 😂 Another great video. Thank You! Definitely love the kunzite. The Smokey with the Aquamarine is beautiful. 💗
That kind of amethyst from Zimbabwe is my favorite 😍 💜 got a small peice at the show. Got it home and found 3 enhydros in it . 🙌 was so cool to meet you for a minute 💫
yooo three enhydros you must have been super excited about them :) these are def some of my all time favorites I should’ve asked him how much do where I just figured I couldn’t afford it
Thanks Dave great video always love these, another interesting fact about Tanzanite is that the vanadium in it which gives it its color actually came from a meteorite strike. It was the rare elements in the meteorite that deposited those elements into the earth and allowed Tanzanite to form. Some of the Tanzanite comes from so deep in the ground though I highly doubt that the heat from a fire on the surface could get to it the heat probably came from the earth itself
I’m so glad I found your channel I’m learning so much! I’ve never seen or been to these big rock shows and don’t have the ability to travel so it’s amazing you filmed these
Thanks for the awesome videos Dave. Here in Canada we don’t have big shows like the ones in the US. I have learned a lot. Blue cab production is another source of information. Keep up the good work. Wonderful. 😁🇨🇦
@@lapidarydave That's a magnificent stone, although it's not Turquoise, the Sonora Sunrise/Sunset from the mines in Mexico is another, when/if you can still be finding the AAA fairly priced? I'm out in the east coast tri-state area of NY, NJ, PA currently in apple country of up-state NY...very familiar with the Florescent Stones/mines of Franklin, NJ and that area, so ya know, I'm Old-school, over 70 and don't know enough about these modern gismos, like we're using but like you, love those deep greens & blues! But that, Black Jack sets it all off with that Black matrix! 🙏👍💎🤠
@@donaldfitzgerald8950 unfortunately not so much the AAA stuff goes for between 60 and $120 a pound. Sometimes we can get lucky and find slabs for under $20 but most of the times it’ll just be one solid color with a little spots of the other color.
@@lapidarydave Wow! Thanks that's not bad at all, what about the Black Jack Turquoise? Do you/are you familiar with the Florescent Minerals from Franklin NJ? Have you ever seen any in your vast travels, I've never seen any examples in any/all your shows? Yea ya need a black light from back in the hippie days, like the old day-glow posters from the 60s to see all the Florescent Minerals Lol! Lete know on both the
Hi, Where in Colorado is he does he have a website? 31:13 I am very new and bought stuff from tictok but this show is fantastic! I am so happy to have found you on youtube.
@@flashbackactivator6565 I love Congolese citrines I just hooked up with some Guys that are bringing in materials from the Congo we mostly work with Malachi but I’m trying to convince him to bring over some citrine that we can get our hands on closer to cost you know how it is any vendor that selling gemstones on a paper plate usually is a bit pricey

I have watched every one of your rock show videos … and all you show are cabochons and rock pieces … you never show any spheres! … Having gone to every Tucson show in the last 22 years (with the exception of the 2021 show closed due to the Chinese virus) there is so much better specimens & spheres you don’t show. You pick up & drool over many pieces … but do you ever buy anything? Sphere Factor San Antonio, Texas
@@lapidarydave You never buy anything? … seriously? … you dig your own rocks? So you don’t like spheres … so be it … more for us … if you saw what the Russians cut for spheres ( a wholly mammoth tooth sphere) then you wouldn’t waste your time on dime-store cabochons … Enjoy the Tucson show this year.
@@johnbrandon859 i’m just kidding i buy a lot of material at tucson show and love spheres :) for every video you see me making n my spending 10x that much time shopping :)
@@lapidarydave LOL …. I know … no way you can be a rock hound and not buy stuff in Tucson … just giving you a hard time … rock collectors are the best and nicest people in the world …. I’m a sphere collector for many years and have an incredible personal collection … have been going to Tucson for 22 years … my best friend bought me my first sphere and I was hooked …
