  • This has been something I've really been wanting to do since my buddy Derek showed me some pieces of this incredible calcite he found a couple of years ago. These are fossil coral heads that have been replaced with beautiful pointy calcite crystals! It was a fun adventure searching for these treasures for two warm 80 degree January days here in Florida. Hope y'all enjoy the video!

    Kyle, I am an elderly disabled woman who absolutely loves all crystals, rocks/minerals and fossils. I am no longer able to go rock hounding because of my disabilities. So, now I watch videos and I especially love your channel. I watch all of your videos and wish I could get out there. But, it is what it is. So thank you for allowing me to live through your enthusiasm for the love of nature and the wonderful creations this earth holds for us to find. I dont have any coral or calcite and wonder if it is possible to purchase a small one from you. If so how? Thank you for your time and keep on finding awesomeness!

    @WILDKYLE Calcite was the top final layer that was on the Pyramids in Egypt. However is was removed by the Romans and used to build castles and Bacillicas around europe. Calcite has magnetic qualities and and concentrates light if shaped and polished correctly.

    What else does a man look for his whole life...good processed cheese flavored squares. I like the foreshadowing, Derek is a man of mystery. Delicious Calcite clams on the half shell. Is this considered honey calcite? That looks like the Walmart shopping carts they use in the one by me....actually better. I liked Dereks impression of roadkill. But your head in the bucket...what do you call that, WildBile? Lol!
