Pretty cool guys, subbed
We climbed Antero yesterday and stopped in your store today. Aquamarine is my wife’s birthstone so we bought several carats of the smaller chips on this trip. I’m planning to get her a nice gem for Christmas. This is so exciting to watch!
WOLVERINES!
I love Aquamarine
I forgot to tell you I think I would fit in with you guys I have really long hair I’m little but a hard worker
job from dreams, I want it too
We rode our dirt bikes up on antero 60 years ago then the us gvt made this area a wilderness area how are these people allowed to mine up there
Damn, that’s so cool dude
Haha, the estimations you make are all ways too high! You‘ll NEVER sell it that expensive, but you can go on dreaming… 😂
These aquamarines are USELESS
Get rough from these miners and have it cut by gem cutters
Stone people…. a breed in themselves. Talking in 70s parlance, a locality that you’re either in or out. Interesting premise for a movie treatment- 🧊
🤩🤩🤩
So you can just take a digger to a mountain and wreck it for rocks, didn’t know that
ملام
I grew up in Chaffee county and I’ve always wanted to dig for aquamarines and smoky quartz on Antero but the only part that isn’t claimed is the hardest part to get to, on the far side of everyone else’s claims, and probably isn’t even all that productive. There’re like four places on Earth to find this stuff and most of them are on the other side of the planet.
!
Planetary rape!
I’ve heard of aquamarine before, but I don’t know what it’s used for.
nice rocks. just kinda heartbreaking to see a mountain being torn down:(
For the money you get from this you will eat american hamburgers for 20 years, the mountain that stood untouched for millions of years will be destroyed forever.
Jesse! We have to go Aquamarine hunting Jesse!
Does anyone know any resources to contact to work a claim for a weekend?
This is Al McAbee again you can call anytime thanks
haha snow patch guys are great, love the enthusiasm and they clearly know their stuff
So there’s even more to the story of the store on Main Street in BV! I’ll be buying some Gem Clay for myself and others for Christmas!
Rock!
Beautiful aquamarine crystals. The Beeyl Pit outside of Quadville Ontario has deep blue beryl, but no gemmy material.
If you are hiring, I am known to find minerals, just follow the wind. I am in Canada, willing to relocate .
Sounds like they are mining for dank gems.
I just checked, aquamarine isn’t worth very much.
jesse we have to start mining
Why would you ever rent if you own a claim like that, hire a engineer or someone handy… your just putting money in some one else’s pocket
Last I checked, The entire Mountain of Antero is claimed.
What age are these pegmatites?
If you ever need extra workers I would love to I love gems I’ve been interiged since I was a lil boy collecting every colourful rock I found breaking them open to see what there was I’d do it all day until my grandpa would get mad at me for breaking his rocks with a hammer in his drive way then my dad would get mad because I would have a bunch a rocks in my pockets or the car
This is a really enjoyable show, but all the prices are so overinflated. Aquamarine is nowhere near as valueble, not even the higher grade stuff from Brazil. Basically take a 0 off every number you see here and we have realistic prices, there is no way that the bigger stone shown here is worth more than 2k, and that is already generous.
Destroying the side of a mountain for some crappy ass gemstone. Take your loader and go home.
الله يهنيكم رحيني وش توقع
How are those blue? Seems like greenish. 🫤
What !!! His voice like an old man with teen face … He will get good in entertainment late … Come on … Get him into entertainment as DJ for starting … He can sing damned well soon will country song … R n B … Soul … Damned … I’m jealous with him … 🤣🤣🤣
Wow you guys have some great big balls!
The valuations are hilariously inflated.
JESSEEEEEEE. JESSSEEEE—- COME HERE. LOOK AT THIS.
Geology is Biology
Hello my friends, I am a geologist from Brazil, I have ideas that can help you to better locate targets with marine water,
an example is with a
petrographic sheet rock you can see how the faults and structures that cause seawater mineralization, you georeference these structures on the googleearth map and locate larger deposits across faults and hydrothermal alteration zones
Awesome I can watch this all day this is one on my bucket list to try
we could go bust or tear the hell outta this mountain and landscape either way is all I hear.
I have 4 gram AAAAAAAA+ grade aquamarine stone
How much money can you make
