Did you find at one of the Mines over there? Or on your property? When you post those pics, you better have a good story with it..lol 
Ive always wanted to hunt gemstones out there, but the furthest I made it was the diamond mine in Ark..lol
Congrats on the find

I think at Sheffield in North Carolina, we visited 2 places, extremely remote, family owned, dug 6 buckets, someone found a 15 carat ruby. Love sluicing love the dig also. Looking for my next adventure. Been to Tucsons gem mineral show 3 years in a row. Also love ghost hunting...

Went to the diamond mines a few times, but never found any gems there. Then I went some crystal mines and found some very nice size Quartz clusters and points. it was well worth the 10 bucks or whatever to get in
