I love serpentine that is dark. if you hold a flashlight behind it, it just glows. Green is my favorite color! That intro was trippy! Reminded me of a Friday night in the 70’s. lol. Keep on rocking on!
Really Great video Andrew. I heard you were in Tuesday, sorry I missed ya. I cleaned big saw #9 Wednesday so you’ll be even happier next time. 😝👍🏽 Great finds out there. I need to get back out there when it warms. Still so bittersweet driving out there because I grew up ‘river every day of the summer’ when it was the river before the damn dam… Cheers to the next trip. ✌🏽💚

Cool stuff! Love the drone shots. Great video dude! I almost never find anything green in Missouri… unless it needs cleaning… then I find tons of green rocks 🤷🏻♂️😂 most of the time it’s algae. I did find a couple pieces I think contain some malachite but that’s it so far. Definitely no jade here.
Most of nepherite and jadite is found in 5-8 places in the world. Nepherite dies off around Montana and only as far as the cascades from alaska leading all the way to Guatemala on the america pacific coast. Not much found on west pacific coast. But in burma there is actual jadeite or imperial jade which is the clear stuff china wants. So being your that far east from where it originates makes sens you wint find any. But finding malachite is awesome! Just dont lick it!! It is a heavy carcinogen!!!
Wow!! That stuff turned out amazing, quite gemmy too!! Super cool with the pyrite inclusions, looks like mother nature added a sprinkle of gold into the mix!!😁
Thanks a bunch! Seems like I lucked out with the quality on some of these. I've had a few reputable locals tell me to hold on to it b/c that clarity is hard to come by. I'm stoked!
Thanks! If you want to cut rocks before you have a saw of your own, check out the Roxy Ann Gem and Mineral Society (Crater Rock Museum). I go there to cut all the time.
Oooh, thanks for making me jealous. Been there, hounded that area, have some of that material. Moved away from Medford so I enjoy watching your vids to see places I used to go and wish I had!
Beautiful stuff once it's cut. Subbed. Funny you are so careful with scree. My friends and I used to race down the scree slopes on the mountains here in Scotland.
I appreciate that, it was my pleasure. I'm new to this amazing hobby and I'm trying to learning as much as I can. I look forward to the next one! My names Nic.
That one you tossed at 5:25 looked like the dendritic kind.The cracks dont always go all the way through. Next time cut into one. You will be glad you did. Never know until you cut into it how translucent they are in the middle. 8:00 reminds me of actinolite schist. It takes a nice polish. 17:20 dragon's eye. I would test that one. Great job!
Well, that was an absolutely gorgeous place to go rockhounding. What an excellent spot. Lots of different types of material to go through. I had no idea that stuff was gonna look as amazing as it did cut. I mean, I knew it was definitely pretty stuff, but wow! Could easily spend all day there. Maybe could even go swimming there when it warms up. Excellent video, Andrew! Rock on, brother. 😁🤘
Glad you enjoyed it buddy! Seriously amazing material buddy. Next time you visit Oregon, I'll take you there and we can splash around like baby ducks ^^
The screeeee made me laugh 😂 I fell victim to the scree at the rock quarry on the 66 about 6 months ago...it’s much better over there now since they moved some dirt on top of it!! I also think I have some bowenite in my car that I found near where you’re at! I’m gonna have to check tomorrow. Thanks for your great videos!!
That location is quite stunning. The serpentine you have there is outstanding material, I’m not sure if we have similar material here in Australia, but it’s another one to research. Enjoyed your video with some of those materials looking outstanding. Keep Safe & Keep Rockin
Thanks man and I agree, outstanding material. There is serpentine all over Southern Oregon/Northern California so I'll be looking for a lot more of this stuff. Take care down there buddy
i so want to find a nice piece of that. The shot at around 4:43 to 4:46 made me drool with all those rocks to search through. Was this on the river or around the lake. I googled it and it would take me a bit over the hour to get to the dam. Would I be able to park nearby and not walk far to get to look for what the river/lake has to offer. I would love to join a group search if you ever put one together Andrew! Hint, hint! I know I can buy it on the Internet, but I love the adventure of being out and about, searching, even at my age and my decrepit body! LOL 💕💕💜💜😊😊💜💜💕💕
If you would like to visit the spot I find the bowenite at, send me a PM on FB. I have a spot that you will be able to navigate. Mostly flat ground and close to the water. Just let me know and I'll help you out.
That's great Andrew. Hopefully next time Erin visit we can go there and maybe I can check it out alone before then. I'd be thrilled just to walk in a good gravel spot just to feel that energy! 💕💕😊😊👍👍😊😊💕💕@@TheRogueRockhound
@@TheRogueRockhound sweet! im assuming this is a summer spot ? definitely gotta plan that out thats some wicked material dude! and ill bring those brownies , them extra good brownies lol
@@JacobKildall Sweet man!!! The area is loaded with that stuff but the best spot I found is basically at the bottom of the lake so whenever the water lvl is low enough. You'll love it man cheers
@@TheRogueRockhound right on sounds good , so definitely summer trip. we still gotta check siletzia out to , you see that 25 lb sagenite agate i posted yesterday ?
Happy New Year! Like your videos, super cool that you share locations. I'm super new to Rockhounding, but totally addicted! I'm currently in Keno Oregon, and wondering if you know of any spots near? Hoping to hit the dirt before it snows again!
Happy new year! and Thanks ^^ As for locations in your area, yeah, youve got a lot around you. The best spot around you is my friend's fire opal mine. Send me a message of FB or IG and I'll help you find some spots. Thanks again!
@@TheRogueRockhound That's awesome man, that's one of things I am really digging about your vids. You're willing to let us noobs in on the game. I was always intimidated to start hounding. You've made this accessible. Thanks brother.

Bowenite has become one of my favorites. Easy to work with and beautiful as some jade/nephrite
Thanks Indus ^^
Applegate jade is beautiful!!!! I really loved seeing it polished and cut!!! Great video!!

Great video! Love the Applegate, the scenery and goggles! What more could you ask for!😄🙌🏼👍🏼

I look forward to chatting with you soon ^^
I was here today and the lake is completely filled up.❤
Yeah, guess we'll have to wait to get more of that cool bowenite ^^
I was with you right up until the bigass spider! Love the way you put together your videos…informative and fun. “Screeeee”…yup!! ⛏❤️
Thanks Cece, I put a lot of time into making the best video I can.
Look forward to chatting with you soon ^^
Very nice specimens. It looked like a beautiful day.
Thank you, it was a beautiful day
Great video, love the drone shots and most importantly, your knowledge drop on every video. Thanks!
I appreciate that! Hope your spring is going well and look forward to chatting with you.
Love this video! I especially like seeing what you do with the rocks you take home.
Glad you like them!
That bowenite sure cleans up nice. I like it!
I love it!
Really Great video Andrew. I heard you were in Tuesday, sorry I missed ya. I cleaned big saw #9 Wednesday so you’ll be even happier next time. 😝👍🏽

Very nice finds! I can't wait to get a saw for my rocks. I may have to take a trip to Applegate! Love your video's!

Sorry man, I'll take real good care of it ^^
Thanks for watching Jim, much appreciated.
Well done! I enjoyed every minute.
Awesome, thank you!
Beautiful stuff once it's cut. Subbed. Funny you are so careful with scree. My friends and I used to race down the scree slopes on the mountains here in Scotland.
Awesome and thanks!!
Man, you Scots are made for the hills, I've seen goats tire out before some of your lads ^^
Awesome day out there, sweet video, thanks for sharing your hard work and passion! I appreciate what you do!
I appreciate you joining tonight and look forward to seeing what adventures you'll be going on this season.

Any time ^^
If you need ID help or GPS coordinates, PM me on IG or FB. Stay safe out there and don't let the screeeee get ya 😀
Outstanding content!!
Much appreciated!
9:14 is olivine peridot epidote basalt possibly diorite going into gabbro
14:16 is also dolomite
That location is quite stunning. The serpentine you have there is outstanding material, I’m not sure if we have similar material here in Australia, but it’s another one to research. Enjoyed your video with some of those materials looking outstanding. Keep Safe & Keep Rockin
Thanks man and I agree, outstanding material. There is serpentine all over Southern Oregon/Northern California so I'll be looking for a lot more of this stuff.
Take care down there buddy
That fossil impression looks similar to a sea pen.
Aweee schist!
Yeah buddy, glad you made it out there man. Next time you go, make sure to bring those waders LOL
8:01 is mica schist
i so want to find a nice piece of that. The shot at around 4:43 to 4:46 made me drool with all those rocks to search through. Was this on the river or around the lake.

at 5:55 that's basalt
14:44 it's all antigorite.
I'm always sharing with my sister, my friends are not into rockhounding.
Sounds like you've got a great sister ^^
i wanna go lol
I would be stoked to take you there man! I'd even bring cookies ^^
@@TheRogueRockhound sweet! im assuming this is a summer spot ? definitely gotta plan that out thats some wicked material dude! and ill bring those brownies , them extra good brownies lol

@@TheRogueRockhound right on sounds good , so definitely summer trip. we still gotta check siletzia out to , you see that 25 lb sagenite agate i posted yesterday ?
12:18 is dolomite
Secrets no more-
There are still plenty of secrets out there
Happy New Year! Like your videos, super cool that you share locations. I'm super new to Rockhounding, but totally addicted! I'm currently in Keno Oregon, and wondering if you know of any spots near? Hoping to hit the dirt before it snows again!

Thanks again!
What is the golden colored stuff around 16:46 ? Is it pyrite ?
Pyrite and chalcopyrite ^^
8:24 is gneiss
11:40 is phyllite or schist
LOL That's gabbro!! not serpentine, not bowenite.
Not asking for your secret but what general area is this in?
No secrets here bro, Elliot creek is where you want to be.
Thanks for watching

Lots of chromium inclusions in that stuff!!
Finger lickin' good ^^
