Collecting the Bancroft Region, continued
posted in Collecting Locations, Filming |We camped at the Lost Lake Campground outside of town, so we were rested for a new day.
There were two locations for Fluororichterite just a few miles over in Wilburforce. Both were roadcuts on back country roads. These spots at first looked like just some boitite mica at first, but with a little poking around they turned out to be just loaded with nice, terminated crystals.
We found both singles,
and clusters.
In a rather short amount of time, we had a pile of nice medium sized specimens,
and a ziploc bag of smaller crystals and “toe-nails”.
After that is was off to collect white Actinolite from Dyno Road.
Much like the 2 previous stops, this spot was also a roadcut.
I was pleasantly surprised at how nice, and nearly gemmy the blades were.
