    Hampton is a community in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia, located in Annapolis County. It overlooks the Bay of Fundy and a lighthouse was built here in 1911. It is one of my Favorite spots for rockhounding and site seeing.

    Oh WOW! I've only watched the first 4 minutes so far, and these stones are sensational. What ARE they?

      Thanks for watching. I will let you know in another video when I cut them open.

    Beautiful! I’m wondering if the agates you find have a specific name to them? Fairly new subscriber here, really enjoy your videos. Thank you.

      They most likely do, but i need to learn them. I like rockhounding and since I'm building a channel out of it I better start researching more! I have a geology book on Nova Scotia, but that doesn't help identify agates. I recently joined FB groups in my area to help identify them as well. thank you for subscribing I apricate it. I have many more things I would like to do with the channel including lapidary stuff.

      ​@@RAM-Outdoor-AdventuresDoes Nova Scotia have any rock, gem/mineral clubs? If so, they are a way to become more familiar with what N. S. has to offer & members probably have experience in rock/mineral hunting. I live in Connecticut, on East Coast of U.S. I belong to 3 CT clubs. The clubs have interesting programs on various aspects of geology, some given by members & others who are very knowledgeable on various subjects. Two of the clubs have joined together to rent a large space in a nature museum where the clubs have supplied machinery for club members to learn to use to cut stones, grind-polish under the watchful eyes of instructor members; there are collecting trips for minerals; & two of the clubs have rock, mineral, & gem shows.
      I've known for many years that in the summer, August (I think), Parrsboro has a weekend (?) rock, mineral, lapidary show. Check out those things. They might help in learning how to identify the stones/rocks you're finding.
      Enjoy 'traveling' along the Bay with you.

      I will look into it. Thanks for the heads up, I apricate it.

      I am quite sure there are. I recently got into rockhounding after many years of being gone away from NS, so my focus was just to make videos of my finds. I quickly discovered other channels similar to mine and realized most of them have some type of knowledge of their finds or are a geologist. I do need to get more information with my knowledge of what I am finding and I'm confident I will learn quick. i self taught myself how to make and edit videos and have had a steady increase in views and subs so that's was a good start. now just to advance my craft. I will defiantly look into rock, gem and mineral clubs. Thank you for your advice I much apricate it.
