Just in time for Quartzsite!  You may not be aware, Quartzite is a large gathering of rockhounds during January and February.  It is also a giant flea market. 

 

However, few are aware that there nearby collecting sites that abound in the Quartzite area.  You don't have to buy all your specimens there, you can take field trips and collect your own!  Some of the specimens available are zunite, alunite, epidote, quartz, ribbon barite, included agates, etc.  Collecting areas are the planet mine, BDC mine and areas near Bouse, Brenda and Parker.


So for a greater insight about Quartzite, come and enjoy this very informative video presentation.
