Thank you for posting this! I do love the dendrites too it’s an old central Oregon classic that’s been mined out of existence from my understanding That's super interesting, to me anyway. It's nice to be able to learn all of this information from reputable people. For example, I've read that only 80 pounds of Morrisonite was ever mined. But if you look online, you can find hundreds of pounds of it for sale today! I'm not a geologist or a mathematician, but even I can see something doesn't add up. That's why it's super important, (for me anyway) to have conversations with people like you, as well as the others I have talked to on this site. It's those first hand accounts that help the most. |

I can confirm it’s much more than 80 lbs. they mined the living hell out of that ridge line. I have around 80 pounds setting at the house 😂. |
