Hey guys long time no see..CP and Mrs. CP...as I was in the mtns. of North carolina this last weekend I went to a mineral museum which had lost of books...now 90% of all rock and min. books just repeat the same thing..so they get nary a glance from me...well this time I noticed one book way in the back in the corner.."whats this" I say..."golly gosh darn lookie here" ...looks like a Bible but not just any old bible the "Mt. Antero Bible"(comparing this find to something as good as the Bible:)) well heck ya..this is an awesome book..extremely in-depth..well written..all the info you could ever need..it's older written in the 80's but still an excellent read...what is the collecting status on Antero and White mtns. now? Are there still large lode claims filed on those molybdenum areas? any other info you can provide?

wow that amguy cracks me up !!! lets see if his tune changes once he experiences Antero . he talks a good one Aquamarines are common in colorado , granted you know where to look, I often visit many Aqua hotspots , and every one is under 9000 feet , which means I can mine for more than 3 months a year ... unlike Antero where its 14,000 feet and the odds are for the smaller crystals (spagetti noodle sized)... im talking about 5 foot aquas , but whatever floats your boat |
