    My wife's family mines recreationally with heavy equipment. Have a lot of claims around Lake George. No gold just Smokey quartz and amzanite crystals. They have had pockets worth over 50,000. Colorado in that 30 square mile area is the only place in the world you can find those two crystals formed with each other. At least that's what the rock nerds tell me.

    This made me think of the Prospectors TV show, as Lake George and the Dorris family were on it.

    I think I was a miner in another life.
