Are there any gemstone collectors here in warrior forum ?
If so, what kind of gemstones you like ? I'm a gemstone collector and have a big collection.

    OH Hell yes. I have a rather large website dedicated to it as a matter of fact.

    Right now I am in Central Oregon so I mostly hunt agate (there's one of the world's largest outcrops of the stuff out here) and petrified wood. We also have so much obsidian (of all varieties) that nobody out here really cares either way about the stuff and you'll find nobody picking up the plain black stuff.

    When I visited my sister in CA it was quartz crystals - beautiful large crystals, some with mossy inclusions, some with copper flakes, a few smoky.......

    Then in Idaho they have garnets (star garnets), an incredible deep blue aquamarine - and more agates and petrified wood, jaspers.........

    And that list goes on. I like what I can get my hands on in the field the best.

    Sent. I see you're in Russia? Have you ever been to the Alexanderite mines?

    Never been to the Alexanderite mines. But I have them. These days I'm traveling in Sri Lanka and Burma collecting corundum
