  • Early spring this year in southern Ontario. Let's take a look at public site called Titanite Hill (aka Gibson Road) to see what we can find and if the crystal collecting season can now start.

    I have learned a lot from you over the years, and I thank you. Every time you put the dog in the videos, it always makes me smile. Keep up the good work.

    Very happy to see you back. Because our winter lasts about 36 to 48 hours, I forget that you have long, cold winters that keep you out of the field. .

      It was a mild winter here this year but reminded us that it is still around yesterday. Temp dropped to -8C with snow (whiteout conditions on the roads) and high 60 K winds.

    Hiya Greg, awesome video and it's great too see your out and about..... you had a great parking spot, and Shelby was having a great time too. Hey I didn't see any skeeters surrounding you either. Can't wait to see the next video when you find some better clusters of beautiful stones.
    I hope you have a awesome blessed day and Shelby too.
    Cya! 😺🐟 out!

    Wonderful! Great finds. Thank you for sharing with us! That last one, I would want to coat in a clear coat. Keep it wet looking. Gotta get you a little foam cut to put into a mayonnaise jar with water so you can shake clean check.

      If you have to decide on one or the other, in my humble option, the smart mine is better.

    Wow! Gorgeous! I love Shelby-she reminds me of my black lab mix I had for 18 years! I also love the way you talk. Very pleasant tone. Thank you for sharing your adventures! ❤
    PS: The geology up there is amazing!
    Also also, did you know ground up apatite was used as paint on the Chinese Terracotta army?

    • @meMiner
      @meMiner  Před 4 měsíci +1

      18 years for a lab is exceptional. I lost Daisy recently and she was 13. I didn't know that about apatite. I think here it was harvested for potassium for fertilizer, but they stopped doing that when caves with bat poop was cheaper.

    • @mria621
      @mria621 Před 4 měsíci

      @@meMiner I’m so sorry for Daisy! I lost a boxer/mastiff mix and a golden within a year of each other within the past 3 years-just 10 and 11 years old! Mica (lab mix was talking about earlier) had some hound or something in her, so I think that helped her longevity.

    Could you make a tutorial on how to extract quartz from granite? I right now have a few rocks of granite I’m laying on right now, and there is exposed quartz. I’m really trying to find an acid that won’t dissolve quartz but will dissolve any other rock.

    • @meMiner
      @meMiner  Před 4 měsíci

      Nothing that I know but maybe you could google mineral solubility table to see what minerals are affected or not affected by different acids

      They are a distance apart. Smart is a ways north of Bancroft and this is about a half hour south and west of Bancroft
