Hunting for California Amethyst Crystals
Hunting for California Amethyst Crystals
This winter we camped in the California wilderness and hunted for amethyst crystals. We found a fresh pocket of some beautiful crystal specimen, check out how we did it!
i actually now exactly where you guys were. The weather station gave it away. I’ve been there multiple times =)
Hey brother just watching your show wondering how come you guys never go hunting 4 rubies in California myself and an old man that used to always be there in Royal Seco campgrounds used to go along the river and find little rubies he hunted up and down the Mountainside for the main vein that these things were coming out of I’ve only found one myself but the old man had a whole jar full of them
How do you know where in the dirt to dig? Any tell tale signs?
Great finds! I’m looking to go amethyst hunting soon myself. Obviously it’d be bad form to ask exactly where this is, but could I get the general region? I’m in the Bay Area and most of the best spots for any kind of gem seem to be in Southern CA, so if this is closer to me that would be really great. If not, any reccomendations for spots around here?
WOW👍
I dig that funky musik Would love a copy of that.
Where is this at i would love to find some cool stuff
that looks so fun

What are you going to do with your finds?
What part of California is he finding them
What County or forest is that if you don’t mind good sir?
Send me your whatsApp no
Please take me please I’m salivating where in the desert
Was this public or private?
I’m looking for public spots to do my first dig in the central and north locations but all I’ve found through searching is southern California public sites. :/
Are there any that you know of from central up? Or possibly east Nevada? (I know there are a few public dig sites in Nevada but was wondering what you would recommend for a first time traveler.)
what do you use to clean them?
This area has been heavily prospected for 100 years, all the washes have been picked clean by rock clubs. You have to hike up the mountain with a pry bar and pick axe to find the nice stuff and it can take several trips to find it. The bushes have lots of deer ticks. There is no cell service and there are rattlesnakes in the brush, so winter trips are the safest. Good luck out there!
Nice. Dig it the most!
Hey where’s this spot at do you think there’s gold there also I have the gpz7000.
Absolutely worthless without a location.
Looks near to arroyo Seco
Most likey a cave where that fern is growing
Nice finds, it always amazes me what a seemingly barren landscape has to offer
I’ve been studying a lot for the past year, I also travel, and I’ve been studying your videos. This is the best and most inspiring video to me hehe, especially with your desert DJ 💜 if you need a fire spinner / crazy crystal lady to tag along plz let me know
If you’re going to have videos about gym hunting at least put the location down even if it’s Just an estimate area.
Didn’t a fire go through here or am I mistaken
area looks like its somewhere by the I10 freeway..
Are there Crystal’s in every mountain you dig? Makes me want to go gold mine and look for amethyst right here by my house.
Where exactly in California is this? I want to go with my friends on a treasure hunt with funky music lol
I don’t have one I did have I can’t find it it’s broken so I don’t have one
This is so cool! was it somewhere in social? love the ending of the video lol! I would like to try to find Amethyst myself. Where would you recommend to go? I live in Vista CA. Thanks in advance!
Hi David! Awesome Time! I’m from the bay area and looking to get into finding crystals as well! Would love to connect with you sometime!
Thanks though. No.
Can you please tell me the name of this mining site. I tryed looking on the internet but couldn’t find it. I will really appreciate it.
Thank you to everyone that didn’t burn this place out
One question. Are you near the same area as you were in your COVID video ?
OMG. I was so excited for you thats awesome
Can you just go anywhere and start looking ??
Okay, but why don’t I have cool friends like this? Haha. I love how you guys hype each other up after every specimen is found. Also, how dope is it that y’all have your own desert DJ!?!?
Time to join a Gem club! 😂 Although I’m not sure if I’ll find anyone local to go digging with. 😅
You’ve inspired me to start rock hounding and mining for amethyst. I started doing research on rocks and am trying to understand everything. You’re video is seriously awesome and I’m stoked for all your finds! I feel like I have so many questions for you!!! But I guess what makes you pick a spot? And I’m assuming this is Southern California? Sorry I’m still new at this
I’m moving to California City in November, wanna go dig sometime?
Where is this at I wanna go find some too
Crystallzzzz
If anyone knows someone who sells real raw crystals in Los Angeles please DM my Instagram: @RexxRoyal
Or we here I could find some
I live in Southern California and want to find pieces like this. Where is this at..
