Keith, there is also some blue quartz around to the left about 1/4 mile thru the woods from the boulders. Kev, the next open house is the first weekend in Oct. Join MAGMA(it's free) and you can go a day early on Thurs. before it gets picked over. www.magmarocks.com There are a LOT of digs in Ga., SC and NC close to you. Diamond hill is at Antreville,SC just across the Savannah river from you. |

3rd pit when road curves right and boulders on left where I showed you, go left around boulders and into woods. Keep going and down into another shallow pit. On the far side of the pit is a hugh boulder the size of a small house. It is in nice white matrix and gorgeous light blue quartz speckled in it like in the lazulite.
