I did a two week rock hunting run away from the Bay Area over the Holly Daze. A little Tourmaline from a pre-xmas fee dig east of San Diego (Himalaya Mine) and some goodies from a nice vein of Fluorite in Eastern AZ

Wanted to ask is there good stuff on land that has been striped? Like surface mined for coal. I know of some good rock hillsides but didnt know if would still produce. Its been since the 50's since it was stripped.
Cant beat them finds. Should post some pics of your finds. I would like to see them. Im going out tomorrow with a friend hope to find some goodies
