After spending a little time in the quartz pit with the small backhoe, Amos was able to open up a couple of small veins of decent quartz crystals, the problem was, there was not enough room for everyone to work.
Carl Rogers, his Dad and Uncle were in a good area following the vein.
Thomas working the quartz vein.
Above pics are of some of the quartz crystals I saw that came from the pit, I don't know who found them, if you found them, let me know and i'll add your name to the pics.

During the midday, some went to the rockshop to buy specimens.
