How crystals are found. Mining for Herkimer Diamonds 

Yes, it is a ton of work for just a little find. We did find a Herkimer cluster check out our other videos.

@@miamiminingco awesome. Thanks

Are they worth any money?

@@salon831pm Maybe a little but generally the bigger ones are valued higher. Mostly valued by collectors I think.

Yes I went there today and got great diamonds

They are called Herkimer Diamonds but they are not real diamonds. It is a high quality very clear quartz. It is naturally faceted to look like a diamond. High quality Herkimer range between $5-$10 per gram and that one is slightly under a gram.

This is a public mine called Ace of Diamonds located in Herkimer, New York.

Awesome

A ton of work for that little Herkimer.
