Picture of a young fellow (Brinson Prince, son of George Prince) that found this big amethyst double term. When he found it he let out a big holler! I am sure this kid will never forget that day! And, he is probably hooked on digging rocks now, for sure. This really made my day to see this. He saw me taking pictures earlier and towards the end of the day he came up to me and asked me if I wanted to take a picture of his rock.
Pictured below is the tailings pile where people
dig for $10 a day.

Also pictured is a group of some of the Georgia
Mineral Society members who found large iron oxide coated amethyst
crystals. Later in the day a fellow found 2 crystals that were
bigger than grapefruits!
