So many Garnets!
Monday morning, after a good nights sleep, we met Cal Graeber and Jeff Kent in the Coyote Range to film them collecting garnets, and maybe do a little ourselves.
They were using a blasting system powered by compressed air to put cracks in the hard epidote
Matrix…
…then using hand tools to work out the sparkly garnets.
Some very nice garnets were found after a few hours of hard work.
