If you have a chance and are in the area of this location check it out! It’s super fun and long as it’s not raining very easily assessable!
Wow perfect timing! I'm truck camping in Flagstaff on my way to the grand canyon tomorrow. On my way back to Odessa, Texas I might have to make a stop along the way in Duncan. 🤔
By the way I'm a geologist so this is right up my alley
Amazing finds, love it 🤩
Danggit wish I had known you were in AZ I'm only a short drive from there in the safford area. If you ever get a chance try to go up to slaughter mountain. Or deer creek some of the best fire comes from those two places. Happy hunting!!!
@@bradcarter7388 Slaughter mountain? That sounds dope where is that at
@@bradcarter7388 Slaughter is the way to go!
Matrix is the dog with the most miles on the road for sure.
Except van life pp
People
You'd be surprised to know that there are many many more dogs with possibly more miles. Matrix is forsure In the upper range however
beautiful finds! Whaaaaaaaaat!
This are my new favorite formations
I legit love living here! This is literally right out my door and it makes me so happy that I'm where the most beautiful gemstones reside
Omg 😲! My sister would be in heaven finding these by the hand full, and yes so I'd be a very happy camper😊 too.
Gorgeous fire agates & fanny packs FTW!
This stuff washes north up the Santa Cruz into Tucson. You used to be able to find it all over the river bed before a couple years ago when they bulldozed it all for a failed reclamation project
Fire agate caught my eyes today.
I appreciate the knowledge and keen sense of humor you share 😊 Beautiful finds 👍
Love your work.......... freaking me out with your nonchalance around all those black widows tho....gees...gloves man... gloves....😫🤣😫🤣
They're not aggressive, though, so that's a good thing. They'll retreat back into the web before they choose to bite - usually.
I used to live in Safford/Thatcher AZ,awesome place.We found a big female tarantua at foothills of Mt Grahm and kept it.I left AZ and my Bro kept if for like 5 yrs before letting it go back where we found it.Thanks for taking us along on your rad adventures.🤙
Your enthusiasm is great!
Thanks 🙌
Look at that color it’s so beautiful whaaaaaaaaaat!
I never knew these existed... Wow they are beautiful 👍💕
I love fire agates, probably my favorite hunt
So glad you could check out the great state of Arizona and the treasures that it holds. Like fire and Chalcedony agates and quartz crystals. Whaaatttttt. There's some spots in Arizona that have green/purple flourite. Enjoy your time here and ROCK ON!!!
Whaaaaaattt! Yes perfectly timed to watch when I get home from work ! Thank you ! Sending love from Sedona !!!! 🥰🥰🥰💜💜💜💜
Loving those botroiydals!!!
Oh my gosh, I love fire agate! Watch those fingers, guys and gals, lots of critters in the desert will bite you! Give Matrix a hug from us, Brian, and cheers!
Great educational work. Thank you.
Good finds. Glad you kept Matrix in the RV on that night walk, we wouldn't want him hurt by a black widow. Living your best life!
Dude I saw so much stuff I would have picked up! 😂 I would have needed a bucket or two
Nice👍, I've done some of that before. Only got to spend an hour out there. But I could have spent a week out there. Need to travel out that way again some day.
Such a cool video ! Thanks for sharing !!!
Love that location . Love when my job send me to AZ so I can bring some agate home
Sweet Gems! Amazing stone! One of my ultimate favorite stones! 🔥
🔥 one of my absolute favvs
One of my favorites!!! Awesome!
You are In my state. Love you Crystal collector. You are one of the few that I have literally watched all your videos so when I see a new one I click on it same day usually.
That’s so cool, thanks so much I appreciate the support! B🙌🙌🙌⚒⚒💎💎
Cool place. I love spiders.
Wow this place is amazing! Defiantly on my bucket list
Now I’m seeing more inspiration for Arizona walk. New to upper. Northwest- Kingman. And you did it without a hammer! So my walks may not be that easy but I’m not going to stop! Thanks!
Hello from Tucson, I have found so many specimens of fire agates in many areas around the city!!
Awesome videos
any spots you'd recommend checking out for finding them?
Nice finds! Thank you for the info.
Nice finds!
Love the new format, if this is it.. Keep the love going 👌
One of my favorite videos!! I love these agates ❤🔥❤🔥❤
Awesome!!
Again, the same finds. We'd gone to Quartzite (the yearly show of anything you'd want to buy - rock related) for our business- that we had selling finds, jewelery made , etc. We took a drive onto a paved side road to sights unknown , parked, got out & as you said, it was everywhere! That was 40 years ago! Good to know it's still that avaiable. Kept looking & we found some turquoise. Successful trip. Always fun & to play in the dirt! Can't wait for next weeks show!
Really enjoying these trips as I'm familiar with the areas. My bucket list is to find an arrowhead, but one I can keep!
You must have a large number of pieces in your collection, I would love to see a video showing it off. great videos dude.
Saddle mountain outside of Tonapah AZ is another place to find some good fire agate.
I had the same type of experience at Saddle Mt on BLM just 40 miles east of Phoenix the spring of 2020. Thanks for taking us all along. aWeSoMe❣️9:52😆
CANNOT WAIT for the polishing video!
You are the coolest
Omg you were literally five minutes from my house!!!!!! How awesome sorry I missed you!!!!!
I lived in Franklin growing up and still have family all around Duncan. It was super cool to see that little town mentioned here!
Dang, he cleans up good!
Really enjoyed the info along the way ! Thanks again for all the awesome content ! May the force be with you 💧
I have really bad anxiety and these videos are so relaxing to me. I swear they help me sleep 🥰
Absolutely killer vid guys!! Freaking LOVED it!! Y'all havin too much fun!! KILLER !!
I appreciate the way it is filmed. It gives a real feel as if I was there. 🌞You never fail to bring some joy into my life)
That obsidian point is definitely an arrowhead! Hey, great haul! Thanks for taking us along!
Good find, Frank. I would be happy with it.
If you get a chance you should swing by the Florida mountains near Deming NM. They have a ton of old mines on that mountain and a chance of seeing Ibex if you're lucky.
I've collected in the south eastern section of California., by the AZ. CA. Border(south east of Blyth) I still have some raw as well as polished now. We actually broke it out of matrix rock.
I love 🔥Agate. Wonderful finds, looking forward to your polishing Video.
Some great looking pieces Bryan, Keep Safe & Keep Rockin.
wow i cant believe thats natural color , thats cool, i am from Arizona i never went to that place i know were to go next time i visit
Hello!! Me encanta veros de nuevo , y me encantan vuestros vídeos y los minerales que encontráis! Un abrazo desde España..
haha frank was probably just seeing the reflection of his green shirt at 10:21 but it was still a great find. We love your videos been watching since we figured out you made that awesome discovery of the quartz vein in Gwinnett county GA where we are from. keep up the great work dude and keep having fun!
Yeah Frank is a funny guy! Would love to check around Gwinnett county again one day, that vein was just barely tapped into but now a house is on top of it
Super fun! Hope to get out there some time.
Your videos are so informative and helpful. I think that you should consider doing a special video showcasing the best finds in your collection.
I also enjoy your humor and the fellowship you have with the other rockhounds. Thanks for sharing your experience and tips.
Lots of my best fines are in private collections and museums and personal collections at this point. But I do have a few good things here and there. There is one collector that has bought many things from me that I could go and do a video there, that would be pretty cool
@@TheCrystalCollector YES if the person was agreeable to you filming the collection of finds. That would be awesome!!
Fabulous!!
Beautiful stones
Love it, here put up a map and pin point every place you've been. I'm going to try, its great you real as Rocks get around.
My absolute favorite hands down. Would be my dream to be able to do that.
Thanks for the video and information. My wife and I spent 6 hours there a few weeks ago. This place was amazing! we got a nice little haul of fire agate. The stuff is everywhere, just like you said.
lizards! 🦎 everywhere!
Yes! I'm in the area! I can't believe you didn't call and let me know you'd be here!!! 😂
Amazing video my friend, congratulations, keep up the great videos you upload!!
Fun!! Thanks!!
My favorite agate. 😍
Southern Arizona resident for a few years now. The way you're flipping those rocks at 5:50 is the best way to experience a scorpion sting. :-)
Dude! Awesome finds! Spiders not 4 me!
It would be cool to collect some bags of surface level dirt to dry pan all the white agate pieces too
Awesome botroidal crystals there. That obsidian piece looked like it was worked into an arrow head, as used by the romans. Great finds
gotta love a good fanny pack!! I always carry one on hikes, just in case if I see a cool rock I like!
Love the fanny works great
Nice hull, may i recommend going a little further west into my home state of California and you can also find some really nice fire agates and opals all over our deserts.
@Shane Carubbi
Hey, I live in RC and rockhound pretty much every day (unless it's summer 💀) and I've found some stuff similar to fire agate, but no fire. Awesome stuff nonetheless, but I'd love to find the iridescent stuff. Also found loads of opal, but just common. Anyway, I was gonna ask you where might be some good places but then I remembered I live in California and rock hounding is close to illegal nowadays. So never mind!
One only crazy enough will go to Arizona and dig for crystals when it’s 115 and monsoon season
What does monsoon season look like in Arizona
@@Petra999 well there’s a lot of dust storms for one, the other night it rained and it was a consistency of dust and water...rip to all white cars, how does one go about becoming a geologist? I moved to Arizona real recently and can’t keep my eyes off all the rocks even in my yard it’s a plethora so I’m trying to dive into that and not a 9-5 delivering pizzas
@@colinlemieux1764 not trying to sound like a smartass but getting a geology degree is the way to go. I got my bachelor's last year and started working in oil and gas in Texas in April. Most employers nowadays require a degree no matter your experience or knowledge. That makes sense though my truck gets so caked in dust within one day after a car wash
Those are some nice rocks man!
I’ve never seen ones with that light lilac color. Beautiful!
I have to admit finding that point and not being allowed to keep it made me sad lol. Im new at Rock hounding and from Ga. I love watching your videos and I learn so much. You are so smart, laid back and cool!! Thank you!!
Oh wow!! Not too far from Tucson! I got to get over there too someday soon! Love your channel & Matrix!! 🌞 beautiful summer sunsets in Arizona!! 🌞🌵👾🌸🌻🐦 Wooohoooo!!! For certain!
I have a rock I need identified! No doubt you would know what it is.... Found 31 years ago near Catalina State Park.
When they're all laid out, they look amazinggggggg 😍😍😍😍😍
I dig it.
I bet you have such a huge collections.
When gas prices come down, we are heading to AZ! Thank you for the video.
My jaw drops open so many times during your videos, I think I’ll have to tape it up!
💎💎✨✨✨😱
Nice rock
I’ve never heard of Duncan, and I live in Arizona. Go figure 🤷♀️
I always find so many cool “rocks”, but I have no idea what they are!
The coolest specimen that I’ve found so far is what I believe to be pink quartz in the side of a mountain and on the reverse side was the shape of a heart , I collect all things in the shape of hearts that come from nature.
I love your show!
Looks like awesome ground for kids!!! I'd love to go there with a roller magnet to try and find some meteorites!
Whaaaaaaaaaat!
Wolf spider ain't afraid of you giants!
Lol. The spider 🕷️
I love fire agate. Under appreciated stone in my opinion.
Whaaat !!! A caveman!?!? 00:17
You should have a red rider wagon picking up aaaaaallll those goodies for bonuses!!!! :D
I polish this stuff would love some more xD excellent material
Some of my best finds of Fire Agate was on the side of the road where the grader pushed rock from side to side.
Woow..😲 batu agate yg indah.
