Although known for its gold production, California is a virtual
haven for rock and gem collectors. With Rockhounding Southern
California, you can explore the mineral-rich desert regions, comb
tide-washed beaches for jade, agate, abalone, fossilized whale
bone, and prospect in the mountains and hills for gold, copper, and
other minerals and gems. It describes the state's best rockhounding
sites and covers popular and commercial sites as well as numerous
little-known areas. This handy guide also describes how to collect
specimens, includes maps, directions, and GPS coordinates for each
site, and lists rockhound clubs around the state. Rockhounding
Southern California offers a complete introduction to this
many-faceted hobby.
