>>2276077Most collecting localities have been exploited for many years.If I have to dig a hole in a previously disturbed location to find a nice something, How am I depriving you of the beauty of nature? I'm exposing it. The rock club I was in put on a show every year, free to the public, to show what they had found on mostly public land. We were always willing to talk locations and give tips to getting out. Planned field trips and gave talks at local schools to get kids interested.
Minerals of value get claimed. Life's a bitch, worse without good conductors to bring your "green" energy to you.
