Rockhounding old Gold and Silver mines near Eureka, Utah, and then we find something BIG!
In this adventure we travel to a secret location after several failed attempts at mine tailings near Eureka, Utah. What we find there literally blew me away! I had no idea we could find them that big so close to home…

Please never reveal this spot!! Thanks 🙂 we should dig in Utah sometime
I am sure you know this but HCl acid can clean off calcite, but maybe be careful with the other minerals, always safe to test a crappy piece to see how it works.
Love the record scratch haha
Dang! Where was this?

Which part of eureka? I thought all of the abandoned mines there were on private property
I found some limonite from pyrite recently and want to clean it up… some I can chip off but some of the material is like cement on it. Is there a chemical or acid I could put on it that wouldn’t eat or damage the limonite?
If this is publicly accessible land, providing GPS coordinates would be nice for others who may wish to find their own. That could also help grow your channel. I’m one of those who enjoys getting tips and locations to find my own; instead of watching others do it or store/site purchasing anothers finds. Main reason I started checking out rockhounding videos here. This spot looks worth a visit.
What do you do with all of the rocks, crystals and minerals you find? Do you make jewelry? Art? That would be cool to see. Looks like fun adventures always! Thanks for sharing 😊
I’ve found a lot of limonite pseudoscience here in NM, but none as killer as those!
