 Well, here we are back at the dig. This is day two of looking for the Nalimonite pseudomorphs. And so today, once again, I'm joined with my brother over here. And I've also got my good partner out here, Tim, who is his first time and right off the bat, he's got some crystals he's pulling out right here. I'll get you in close so you can see the crystals right there. We're going to see if we can get that mostly out. It looks fractured, unfortunately. Usually where there's one, there's more. Here it comes. So you can see the cube that's been fractured, which is pretty typical up here. Usually about a third of the thing that I find are fractured. I don't know if it's the whole thing. So we got Tim here digging in the place I was before. And here's his first big find right here. Beautiful, beautiful, lovely crystal on the matrix still. Or actually there's probably some other ones. And I got one right here. Yeah. Beautiful. Kylie says he pulled something out. What did you pull out? My first one today. Oh, it's a nice dark one too. You want those dark ones. They're really nice. Very good. Everybody off to a good start except me. So I had a few big rocks from yesterday that I was going to break open, but I didn't have a big enough hammer at the time, so I got one this time. Busted this rock open and look at that. Beautiful cube. Nice. It looks like we've got another one right there. So we'll go ahead and break that out. Oh, look at that. Right there. Yeah, this rock's got some good stuff in it. Oh, oh. Gosh, even more in here. This has turned out really nice. Hey, tiny ones are great if they're pretty. There we go. Just pulled another one out. Add that to the pile. Some people might say, leave them in the matrix. Most of these are kind of loose though. Tim just pulled this out. Look at the size of that one. Of course, it's kind of a rusted one, so it might not be the prettiest, but it's huge. This rock don't want to break. Just pulled another one. All right, that one finally came out. It's a little fractured on that side, so that broke off, but the rest of it's still pretty nice. Now we just got to get this big one out. Might just come out. Oh, there we go. Came out. Look at that one. Beautiful. I think that's everything in the rock. There's a little cornerpicking out there, so it's better to keep breaking it. Look what Tim just pulled out. Beautiful twin right there. Good size too. Those are nice. Those will clean up nice and look really nice. It's that dark stuff you're looking for. Very nice. That's where I'm at so far with those, and I've still got all of this rock to break open. There it is. Bunch of crystals. There it is. Bunch of crystals, pieces. That one holds out a lot, didn't it? That was the first one I found. That's nice. A lot of it. There we go. Looking nice. Tim just pulled out a nice cube. Let's take a look at that thing. Beautiful. That'll look nice cleaned up. So Tim was being quiet over here. He apparently didn't want me to see what he had. Geez. That right there. You're looking at probably $100 right there. Bonkers. That one's beautiful too. That's a decent cluster as well. I'm in a new spot to try. They're down that way. And I think I finally am into something. Just pulled that rock out. You can see a cube there, there, and there. And I pulled a nice one out. And we're all back right there. So it looks like I'm in a nice zone that's going to produce. We'll see if we can get anything bigger. Looks like I put the camera away too quickly. Just as I said that, there we go. Bigger stuff coming out right there. We'll head that way. Just pulled that one out right behind the other one, going that direction right there. Beautiful. Tim's been making good progress. He's found lots of stuff. And I just pulled this out that he wants me to try and break these out of some nice clusters. So we're going to get those out. All right. The first one just popped out and here it is. It is beautiful. Nice big cube with a bunch of smaller ones come off. We just pulled the last cluster out. Look at that. Oh, look what he just pulled out. Oh, that's a gorgeous one. I found these ones right here. I see why you left Kyler. Immediately pulled the first one. The backside's rusted all the way through. Got something here. Oh, snap. Look at that thing. That's beautiful. I hope that's a big cluster and not just a single cube. All right, Tim. I don't know how. It seems like it's stuck in the rock. So work on the rock around it. See if you can get loose the rock around it. Start with that one closest to you, maybe. It looks like it's coming out now. Oh. Well, it's just a cube, but it's a beautiful one. Got it out. There it is. That's a nice cluster. This thing is just staring at me. It doesn't want to come out. It's not loose. It's still embedded in the rock underneath it. Looks like I finally worked at least. There it comes. Beautiful. Nice cluster. Looks like Tim has found a nice cluster. You can see it right there in a little bit. Let's get that thing out. Oh, it's fractured right there. That's unfortunate. Okay, the rest of it's good though. It's really rusted, but it's still a big cluster. Look what we have here. I'm sorry, I'm like a fool for it right now. I was literally pulled all that out in the castle. Got this cluster about to come out right here. Then Tim's got one over here. Oh, gosh. Look at the size of that cluster. Okay, can Tim get this out safely? It might take me a minute. I'll go back to working on mine for just a minute while you keep working on it. The dirt's pretty loose. Some of these places where it's close to the surface can usually just kind of use your fingers to get the dirt to move. Enough to get it out. You have mine coming out? Okay, coming over to yours. So that's the tip, like you said it was fractured. Yeah, here's the rest of it coming out. Shoot, that's huge. We're gonna have to see what that looks like cleaned off. Oh, that's a huge one. All right, back to mine. Let's see if I can get this one out. Nice spherical looking cluster. Very nice. So Kyler is in the spot now and he just pulled these out. Yeah, within the last minute. Just a little cluster here and that big thing. Yeah, these are good. That's one of them. Is that the one you saw? Yep. I just was digging and thought it was another rock. Look at that. What the heck? Can't wait to see that cleaned up. Oh, I can't wait either. That looks so nice. Holy, what the? I wasn't finding anything this size at all. And then, boom. Wow. That is, that's a huge cluster. Oh, I'm so excited about this. Biggest cluster I've pulled off of this mountain. That is probably the find of the day. Wow. All right, Kyler, so what did you find? All right, so this is over the last two days of going. So I found some really cool stuff. Just to highlight some of my favorites, this is one of them. Because on this one, you can actually see that there's a band of them right there, a bunch of little ones. Kind of cool to see that band going through. Nice. Sure to talk. And you can see I also found some really big ones. Good washers. You can see the crystals on there. Got a pretty big one there. Very nice. Big one right there. This is one of my personal favorites just because it's kind of silly. It looks like it has two ears on the end. So I call this my Frankenstein one. You can see also got some really nice ones here. We can come over this way. Got a couple of good cubed ones. One of my personal favorites. One of my personal favorites is actually this one right here. It's really small. But it's got some beautiful squares on it put together. Beautiful squares. So yeah. Looks like I was able to find quite a few black ones. And some of them that have some really cool patterns on them. I like them too, Bucky. So I would say it was successful. All right. So after washing, here's my collection from today, D2. Some nice larger clusters. Very nice looking. Two really nice ones. This was the really big one that I got. It is really covered with stuff still. So we're going to try and see if we can't remove some of that to get down to it. Cause it would be amazing if I can. Oh, look at that one. That was pretty. Just a bunch of nice things all through here. Okay, Tim, let's see what you found. Boy. Quite a pile here. Some of the good stuff you've got. Big crystal there. That's pretty nice. Look at that. They shouldn't drop them on top of each other. Oh, that's a nice crystal. And then the best one. Let's see your big one. Oh, look at that. Huge. Let's get a whole look at everything. Well, I decided to take my pressure washer to it to see if we could knock some more off. And it did. It got a decent amount off of it. But there's still a lot. My next endeavor, I'm going to soak it in a bucket of soap water for several days and see if that loosens some more clay. We'll try and knock it off again with the pressure washer. And after that, if there's still a lot on it, I will try a different method. Perhaps hydrochloric acid or maybe I'll just take a tool to it, like a little screwdriver or a chisel and just kind of gently try and work the clay off. But that's how it looks right now. That's a nice cluster.
