Went to Ron Coleman's Mine in Arkansas with my club, Tulsa Rock and Mineral Club, to hunt for quartz crystal couple weeks ago. There were some real nice ones and I picked up a few with only a couple that were nice and clear. Didn't find any perfect ones but we all had a great time. It was a low fee $$ for our bunch of about 20 and we had a spot to our self. We could hunt for two hours but could pay $15 or $20 to hunt all day at another location. Some did hunt all day and some stayed Sunday also to look. Forget to take camera but here's some pictures of my finds after I got home and soaked them in oalic acid then rinsed in water. im1.shutterfly.com/media/47a2d806b3127ccef0229dcc31ae00000030O00Qbt2zdm4ZMwe3nwU/cC/f%3D0/ps%3D50/r%3D0/rx%3D550/ry%3D400/Attachments:

Nice! Good to know I'm not the only one who goes straight to the HCl to clean quartz lol.
