dubya 198 Posted July 20, 2013 Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 (edited) Every year from Spring-Fall I hunt for Lake Superior Agates, mostly at work (I'm a cement truck driver so I'm around rock all day) but also on the weekends whenever I'm out and about. Anyone else collect or have any "Lakers"? If you're not a collector but have one or a few I'll buy or trade gun stuff for em! Here are a few of the better Lakers I've found this year so far.

Sport Rescue 245 Posted July 20, 2013 Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 I collect, but do not have any of those. Got some really nice stones from Lake Huron last year. I probably have about 60,000 lbs of rock collected over the years boat racing all over this and other countries. Never come across something so intriguing as those you have. What would it take to add just one to my collection? After further research, I think I may have one of a different color. Will update tomorrow. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dubya 198 Posted July 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 I'll send you one or two if you PM your address. They won't be my boig ones but something with good character and color to get you a couple MN agates. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Remek 771 Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 Very nice Dubya! My daughters both have the bug with rocks right now, as well as seashells. We have a pile of each in buckets. After seeing those ones, I am motivated to take them out to search some more. Thanks for sharing! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sport Rescue 245 Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 Don't know if this is one, but it's really close These are a few of my sea life fossils I thought you might enjoy. 1st is a crawfish or tiny lobster 2nd is some sort of shellfish 3rd is, well, I'll give you 3 guesses, but you will only need 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Capt Nemo 882 Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 Found a 7" translucent rock with gold flakes in it on the Superior shoreline when I was a kid. Got $100 for it at a local gem show. Met the guy again, and he showed me what it looked like all polished up. It was quartz crystal with a gold vein in it. He had it up for sale for $1500. Dogh!
