Where to Find RocksCollections
usually differ depending on where the collector is able to search for
rocks. As rocks make up the planet, unless you live in Antarctica and
don't have drilling equipment that can get through 3KM of ice (!), there
is no country in the world where you won't be able to get your hands on
rocks. The best collecting sites are quarries, road cuts or natural cliffs, and outcrops. Open fields and level country are poor places to find rock exposures. Hills and steep slopes are better sites. Almost any exposure of rock provides some collection opportunities, but fresh, unweathered outcrops or manmade excavations offer the best locations. If possible, visit several exposures of the same rock to be sure a representative sample is selected. |
