I found few rock crystals in the open of Indian mound, some are particularly easy to find, noting the type of rich mineral rocks there.

Good for you

You're cursed for life.

Go put a small paperbag of pipe tobacco on the grave site if you get the heebie jeebies.

Is the top rose tinted or is that just the picture?

nice finds! and are the top ones rose tinted or merely changed from the picture?

nice cytals n y aint my egg hatched?

ACtually they are in different camera modes, thats why different color.

No, it is opaquely white with slightly pinkish base.

ANd er.. why am I cursed?

Do you know what kind of crystals that are?

Cool crystals

Neat thread.

Kinda weird, but neat.



Well, I guess if you're a rock collector it's not weird at all, is it?

There's a legend (?) that if you take a rock from it's native ground, a curse is put on you until you return it.

Cool finds, anyway,

Once when I lived in the UK, I took a rock from a crypt ruins....

It was neat and I wanted it!!

I am an mineral collector (I like that name )

....I have rocks from places......dang, but I am so not willing to drive back to where I got them...(various locations across the USA all west of South Dakota) I don't think I can even remember where I got them all, although there is one from a state park in Colorado..which is supposedly like all "illegal" or something...

I heard about the bad luck thing about taking rocks.

So does that means those geologists who collect stones are cursed? What about the opals and diamonds your mum wears?

What about the gemstones stalls?

Personally I feel that it's even a good omen, kind of like finding a 4 leafed clover.

lotus_spring have you ever wounder what these stones/crystals are?
If you ask me they look like quartz clusters with inclusions of rose quartz(or red granite)

I love Geology myself, and I am always looking for a good find. If any of you crystal enthusiasts find your way to Atherton, you should check out the crystal caves. http://www.crystalcaves.com.au/ .This is their car they drive

by looking at the picture that has few faddish pink on the crystals. it's more likely an rose quartz as is it's part of the family of quartz crystals it has good energy balance aslo good flow energy around it. at times it good for release stress and trauma some short it depends on the person energy flow.
