Hello my wife and I just moved to beautiful Colorado and always talked about getting here and prospecting as a hobby...... Well.....last weekend we decided to head out and give it a go.
We decided on the Bear Creek, Cheyenne Canyon/ Mountain and Lake George areas.
No luck on Cheyenne MT.... No luck in Bear Creek..... But when we went to Lake George we found some interesting specimens. We're noobs and just starting out so bear with us if say something silly lol.
We were looking for Amozonite and pretty sure we found some.... I'll post some pics here.
While searching we came across a smoky quartz crystal just lying on the ground next to some previous digs.... Will post a pic of that as well.
What has us confused is this little piece that looks as if it's sandstone with clear dark blue spots throughout....when wet the entire piece turns blue!
Will post a pic of that as well.....my gut tells me that maybe it's man-made but I'm not sure..... ANY help would be great.... Thank You in Advance.
The wife and I are excited to be here and be a part of this.... One of our dreams :)
