This morning I went to some land that had been turned last week. Last night we had an inch of rain at my house in town. I got to the field around noon and found where somebody had already tried to look the field but it was too wet to look. I found the point below at the edge of the field without walking in the field. I think this is tallahatta quartz. It is not a common material in southwest Georgia.

I then looked in a field on the same farm and found this one. This field had only been harrowed and it was no problem to look it.

I then drove to a field about 15 miles away that I have looked many, many times this spring. It is a dry-land field that was planted in cotton last year. It has been harrowed but the cut-off cotton plants are still there. I found this one in the field yesterday.

I found these there today. The first one was barely visible. I couldn't believe it when I pulled it out.

Super nice! I don't believe that I have seen that type of quartz material around here before.
 

The red and pink points are cool, nice find for sure!
 

Absolutely insane the stuff you find. Great finds as usual. Love the large red one.
 

wow...those are great...I love the color too...it is awesome that each one is basically complete
 

nice finds congrats HH
 

Congrats Americus. I look forward to your posts all the time. Looks like you had a great day. Loving that quartzite.
 

That type of quartzite comes from my area North Ga. I do find it from time to time here. You got some nice color in those.
 

Nice finds...
 

Outstanding finds Americus. Those are some keepers....... You are off to a great start this year man..... Keep it going the force is strong with you!!!.....lol........GTP(Chris)
 

Nice ones. Looks like a good soaking is coming again this weekend. Unfortunately, none of the sites I hunt have been plowed yet. The farmers may have a hard time this year with all the rain we've been getting. But, I don't think they will complain about it!

I talked to a friend in Calhoun County yesterday to see if he had turned any of his land in Calhoun and Early Counties. He said that they had gotten over 20 inches of rain since January with most of it coming in February. He said that last year at this time he had turned 75% of his land but that this year he had turner 5%.
 

I think that first point is quartzite, that's what we mostly get up around here...cool points too

So you have 95% of new fields just waiting on you. You are killing it this season and have already pulled out some great finds. You are the man!
