Incredible selection of Herkimer diamonds. Here we have our our variety where I live, and these are called "Buxton diamonds", though since the site was virtually stripped in victorian times, I've never found any. The clear ones of yours are truly magnificent. Being in a quartz matrix, I can well imagine how difficult it can be to dig them out without damaging them. Thanks for sharing with your great video. GL & HH :D

@TheBottlefreak Same here, I was watching the opal mines on tv and they have some beautiful pieces coming out now. They actually sold off a share of the bonanza mine a few years ago for $20,000. Im thinking of going next year, HH!
