Metal detecing South Dakota
Does anyone know the laws in respect to metal detecting for gold in South Dakota?
Lots of old abandoned farms, old one room school houses and town gathering places to be detected in North East S.D.
I'd like to hook up with a few like minded folks, to check a few of them out.

Nevada's Peacock Mine
Opalman, sorry you didn't find any black opal but that piece of petrified wood sounds interesting. Hope you have better luck at the Juniper Ridge Mine. I've looked them up as well and they say to prepare for heavy rock breaking! They refer to their clear gems as 'fire opal' which is the term used for years to describe the opals from Australia. Hope you gave a very rewarding trip and let me know how you made out.
Once the dry weather arrives in north-central California (I'm in Watsonville) I'm planning a day trip to the California State Gem Mine near Coalinga to hunt for benitiote, the state gem of California. This is the only location in the world for gem quality samples to be found, so far and it's a couple of hours from me. Here's the website if you want to have a look at it: www.calstategemmine.com
Cheers,
Dave

What is your A #1 best rock hunting place in the southwest?
"Welcome to the Wiki!
I definitely think Western Montana might be affordable and is a great locale in terms of rocking, as it is close to Canada, Idaho, Washington, Oregon, Wyoming, Nebraska. Western Washington is a beautiful place but no place to live on a fixed income.
Thanks,
Aaron" Hey Aaron, you forgot North and South Dakota. Lots to be found in the Black Hills and National Grasslands of South Dakota, and petrified wood all over both states. Lots of fossils too.

Travel Ideas
"I've been blessed this year with some left over airline credit from my work that i must book before the end of October. (about $650)
I am looking for ideas for cool or early spring winter rock hunting trips ..I want to go somewhere new and try something ive never done before.. something really cool! :-)
Anyone have suggestions?
Anywhere but the PacNW as i live here and flying would be a waste ;-)

" Go to Hot Springs National Park , Arkansas. You will find the nations finest crystal mines where you can take home specimens worth hundreds of dollars. You can dig for really rare gems and specimens 12 miles from Hot Springs at Magnet Cove. There are Novaculite ridges where colorful cutting and napping material can be found. It is a short hour and fifteen minute drive to the diamond mine where if you are lucky you can go away rich. If not you can find lots of lace agate and colorful jaspers in the mine. A short drive west puts you in Mt Ida (35 miles) which has a number of working quartz mines and a rare Wavelite quarry. All that and a great tourist destination with attractions for the whole family. Every thing from hiking, fishing (three great lakes), top rate horse racing track, theme parks, museums, fine dinning, and a world class spa thrown in for good measure. You can stray in a 1890s hotel, new resorts or camp in a number of first class parks. When you get ready to ship your treasure home, you can send 70 pounds priority mail for $7.50. That's how I shipped Tom the last bunch of goodies. Check out what I posted for Arkansas on the National Directory. Most of the sights are near Hot Springs.
Second choice is the Black Hills of South Dakota or North Carolina.

Home Page
"I down loaded chrome. It is 10 times faster than IE
Thanks
Bill" Just got that chrome thingy on mine too after reading you guys and it is a heck of a lot better. that is one of the col things of theis site. we learn about rocks and minerals and wood and lapidary arts and all kinds of tips and tricks and so much more. we help each other learn these dang computor thingies and how to improve our selves on them. we learn about each other and our lives and make great friends. I dont think there is a state now that I can't find a rocker in from this site. I hope when I go to Bear butte to be able to meet a few on the trip. Will be going through Washington, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, South Dakota, and maybe North Dakota.

Greetings from Oklahoma City
I will post some pics this afternoon. I have a fossil collection but I don't mention it much on the WIKI. There is not much interest in fossils on the site. I have donated some nice fossils to Universities. Billie ANN found a prehistoric camel skull on an ancient white sand beach. It was a Miocene camel that died during a period of higher sea levels. We might have found the whole skeleton if we had dug the site. The site was in south just north of Princeton, Arkansas. Most of my collection is marine fossils. The South Dakota guys really have some of the best fossil collecting in the world. What about Washington. I know Andy added a site which had information about a museum that allowed some collecting of fossils at the park. I believe the site is the Stonerose Interpretive Center.

Looking for a rock hunting partner
It's a pitty that I don't still live in So. Cal. I moved from Riverside to South Dakota about 16 years ago. I could have shown you all of the best rockhounding places in So. Cal. Good luck finding a hounding partner. I'm sure someone on here would like to link up for a trip to Utah.
