We had a wonderful chat with Bryan Major (
www.Ultrarocks.net) about the Diamond Hill Mine in South Carolina at the Grassy Creek Gem and Mineral show this weekend. He showed us some wonderful pieces of quartz and amethyst he had mined himself.
We added this stunning amethyst cluster to our private collection
Devin and I are hoping to get to Diamond Hill this fall to see what we can dig up. Diamond Hill allows for digging by reservation only (910) 547-0427 or dhmine@rocketmail.com.
Above and below are iron oxide coated quarts from the Diamond Hill Mine.
Devin was drooling over this gorgeous smokey amethyst cluster:
